THE ACCUSED IS A NIGERIAN!
The last time I looked at my Nigerian passport, it said NIGERIA not Hausa,
Fulani, Kanuri, Ibo, Yoruba, Ijaw or Bini. I know yours also said NIGERIA.
So why are we so fixated or focused on the TRIBE?
It is a big shame that a lot people here spent lots of time trying to shame the
tribe of the accused drug traffiker. His tribe does does not matter. In the
report he is described as a NIGERIAN. The asian nation does not care about
his tribe.
Let us stop the holier than thou attitude of trying to shame other tribe anytime
there is a story about crimes commited by nigerians overseas. There are
criminals in every tribe. When a Nigerian is executed for a crime overseas, it
is a tragedy for the whole nation NOT just for his family or tribe.
It is time for us to see this as a national problem and try to look for solution
together. We must not let this be one of the issues that divides us.
dan fulani.
