Festus Keyamo, Nigeria’s Minister of Aviation, explained his reasons for Comfort Emmanson’s remand in Kirikiri prison. In response, one user commented, “Be humble if you don’t have money,” implying that humility is only meant for the poor. This statement is flawed and classist, as humility is a virtue that applies to everyone regardless of financial status. Linking humility to poverty not only distorts its true meaning but also promotes arrogance among the wealthy. Such a mindset fosters social division and distracts from the real issue being discussed, which is the legal process and circumstances surrounding the passenger’s remand.
