In response to the news about a US Mayor of Nigerian origin allegedly staging a racist attack on himself, one comment read: “Nigerians will always be Nigerians.” This remark spreads a harmful stereotype, reducing an entire nationality to negative behaviors and attitudes.

Such generalizations are unfair and unproductive, as they fail to recognize the diversity and integrity of the vast Nigerian population. While individual actions may reflect poorly on someone, they should not be used to define or tarnish an entire group of people.
