A video showing a Nigerian woman sentenced to eight years in prison for human trafficking in Ghana led to a comment claiming, “she’s innocent, Ghanaians hate Igbos.” This comment is deeply misguided, as it wrongly assumes bias based on ethnicity and ignores the legal process. Claiming innocence based on ethnic prejudice not only shifts focus from the crime but also fosters unnecessary division between Nigerians and Ghanaians.
The woman in question isn’t even Igbo, making the comment even more unfounded. Jumping to conclusions without facts distorts the issue and distracts from the seriousness of human trafficking. Rather than making baseless claims, it’s essential to let the legal system handle cases based on evidence, not assumptions.
