Allah says in Qur’an 49:13, “O mankind, indeed We have created you from male and female and made you peoples and tribes that you may know one another. Indeed, the most noble of you in the sight of Allah is the most righteous of you. Indeed, Allah is Knowing and Acquainted.”

I oppose the label #IgboYahooBoys much as I reject Fulanis being generalized as criminals or Kanuris as #BokoHaram.

There are fine Igbos and evil ones just as any other tribe.

Language/tribe/region is are neutral things. In each there are good and evil.

It’s painful that southern Nigeria media vilifies all of us for the crime of some of us. But we shouldn’t act like them here. They aren’t our teachers. We shouldn’t stoop to their level.

Allah created us into nations and tribes to KNOW each other, not to defame one another.
