The heartbreaking news of a missing Nigerian woman found dead in the US deserves empathy and respect. Yet one very insensitive comment read: “Did she carry hookup go USA?” Such a remark is cruel and deeply disrespectful. Reducing a woman’s tragic death to baseless assumptions about prostitution not only dishonors her memory but also inflicts more pain on her grieving family. Every victim of tragedy deserves dignity, regardless of circumstances. Spreading such comments normalizes stigma and shifts blame to the dead rather than addressing the real loss. In moments like this, compassion should speak louder than mockery.
