Michael Adebolajo. ....british- Nigerian? by Godson201333(m): 2:20pm On May 23, 2013
Information reaching us says that the man on the right hand side of the screen (One of the Woolwich, London killers) has been identified as Michael Adebolajo.

While we are not denying the fact that he has ties with Nigeria, we believe it is important to understand the role that media sometimes play when it comes to spreading propaganda.

Last summer, the gentleman on the left (Anthony Joshua) won Olympic gold for the United Kingdom. He was well celebrated and it took a lot of us quite sometime to know that Anthony was a English born of Nigerian descent. Even his Wikipedia biography describes him as "an English Amateur Boxer".

We are not denying that the Woolwich killer does not have ties to our beloved country but it is important to know that: He is Black. His parents are Nigerian but was raised in the UK. He was not born a Muslim. He may have siblings who are not Muslims. He changed his religion in the UK. His conversion was in the UK. He probably has a British passport as well.

Trying to blame the actions of a few on an entire race, country or religion is not only petty, it is hypocritical and unethical. STOP DEMONIZING PEOPLE, RACES OR RELIGIONS there are ONLY GOOD PEOPLE AND BAD ONES.
