When the FBI placed a $10,000 bounty on a Nigerian wanted for fraud, the focus should have been accountability. Instead, tribal stereotypes took over the conversation. One user wrote: “E be like say na Igbo man implicate him, Yoruba no dey do fraud, na drugs be their own. Just observation.” This is not an “observation” but harmful tribal profiling. Fraud and drug crimes are committed by individuals, not entire tribes. Painting Igbo as fraudsters or Yoruba as drug dealers only deepens division and hate. Crime has no ethnic monopoly, and using stereotypes to explain it is reckless.
