The tragic death of a Nigerian doctor, allegedly poisoned by a kinsman while visiting Obingwa, Abia State, for Christmas, has ignited discussions online. While many mourned his loss, some comments perpetuated harmful stereotypes about rural life.
One read, “Village people no dey like better thing ooh,” suggesting envy and ill will as inherent traits of villagers. Such comments unfairly stigmatize communities and shift the narrative away from justice and accountability.
