The tragic news of Senate Minority Leader Abba Moro losing both his son and grandson within 48 hours should have called for empathy and condolence. Sadly, some social media users chose mockery over humanity, with one heartless comment reading, “So wetin sad there? Na him start to dey lose people?” Such cruelty reflects how social media has desensitized many to pain and grief. Death knows no status, tribe, or politics — it’s a universal loss that deserves compassion. Mocking a bereaved family only reveals moral decay, not strength. Empathy should never be replaced by online bitterness.
