A viral social media post has ignited heated debates across Nigeria, with any observers describing it as dangerous hate speech and ethnic incitement.
The post, allegedly shared by a user identified as Adepoju Adeyinka with the handle @WE_AR_ALL_WEI.., stated:
“Every bonafide Yoruba child knows not to vote for an Igbo man, come rain, come shine.
Better for Fulani to be killing us than for Igbo to rule.
Igbo hate us, we don’t care about their good intentions to fix Nigeria. They want to fix Nigeria just to gloat at PBAT.
VOTE YORUBA”
The statement has drawn sharp criticism from Nigerians across ethnic lines who see it as deeply divisive and counterproductive to national unity, especially as the country gears up for the 2027 general elections.
What’s your take?
Should Nigerian voters prioritize ethnic identity over competence and track record in future elections? Or is it time to move beyond tribal politics?
