A comment under the news of a Nigerian man jailed in India read: โ€œChinedu, Biafra man, need money to build mansion in Nnewi ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚.โ€ This mockery, disguised as humor, unfairly targets the Igbo tribe by reducing a crime committed by one individual to a tribal stereotype. What makes it worse is that the original post never mentioned the manโ€™s ethnicity. Such remarks do not only ridicule Igbo people but also deepen tribal divides in Nigeria. Crime has no ethnic identity, and dragging tribes into unrelated issues is a dangerous habit that promotes prejudice rather than justice.
