Following the acquittal of a Christian woman accused of blasphemy in Northern Nigeria, a comment read, “Northern Nigeria is an embarrassment to my country.”
While the blasphemy case highlights significant challenges, branding an entire region as an “embarrassment” oversimplifies complex societal issues and fuels division. Northern Nigeria, like any other region, is home to diverse cultures, beliefs, and individuals striving for progress.
Criticism should focus on specific policies or actions, not generalizations that alienate millions.
