Following the heartbreaking news of a LAUTECH student shot dead during a sign-out celebration, many online users expressed sorrow and used the moment to condemn cultism. However, one user posted a mocking and tribal comment: “Yoruba people and cultism 😂😂😂” — turning a tragedy into a point of ridicule.
This kind of response is both disrespectful and divisive. Mocking a loss of life and linking it to ethnicity not only deepens tribal tensions but also disrespects the grieving family. Tragedies should prompt unity, reflection, and reform—not cruel jokes or tribal profiling.
