After the devastating news of a military helicopter crash in Ghana that claimed eight lives, most responses online were filled with sympathy and grief. However, one alarming comment read: “The God that did it for Ghana should do it for Nigerian politicians,” clearly expressing a wish for similar tragedy to befall Nigerian leaders.
This kind of statement is deeply inhumane. No matter the level of political frustration, celebrating death—or calling for it—is never justified. Tragedies should evoke compassion, not fuel hateful rhetoric. Every life lost deserves dignity, not to be used as a punchline or political wish.
