Following the report of four British Nigerians sentenced to 54 years in prison for violent phone robberies in London, one deeply offensive comment read, “Tribe of thieves.”
This kind of statement is toxic and dangerous. It unfairly labels an entire ethnic group as criminals because of the actions of a few individuals. Crime is a personal choice, not a cultural identity. Comments like this don’t just insult — they divide, fueling unnecessary hatred among Nigerians and deepening tribal tension.
Red flag 🚩: Condemning individuals is justice; condemning a tribe is prejudice.
