Dear Sir,

I write to register my complaint over
your company’s failure to identify with
Nigerians in times of tragedy, but rather
chose to identify with other nations.

Sir, I don’t want to believe your bias was
informed by the assumed superiority of
the races you often identify with.

In any of our recurring tragedies, either
when we were bombed in our
sanctuaries or social gatherings,
Facebook has never identified with
Nigeria.

While my heart goes to the French over
last night’s terrorist attacks that led to
the death of at least 120 people, I
couldn’t but lash at the folly of Facebook
for failure to identify with Nigeria when
an estimated 15,000 Nigerians were
killed by terrorists in round-the-clock
attacks in eight years.

I notice a smashing theme you created
for your 1 billion users to use in order to
identify with a particular people. You
are even more effusive when you pin the
banner on our doorstep for easy use.

When Boko Haram terrorists attacked
Baga town in January this year, the
death toll was estimated at 2,000. This
never melted your company’s heart to
create an instant theme for your 1
billion consumers to identify with
Nigeria.

Let me remind you that in a single attack
on Kano city in January 2012, at least
185 lives perished, and in Bama town in
February 2014, at least 120 Nigerians
were massacred.

In one fell swoop in November 2014,
Boko Haram bombed 220 Nigerians at a
mosque in Kano city, 50 worshippers
bombed at Madalla church in 2011, and
in February 2014, at least 60 students
were slain at a Yobe school. Your
company didn’t identify with us despite
our loyalty to your network.

Let me also remind you that at a
weekend in January 2014, terrorists’
attacks on eight Borno villages left 150
dead. Facebook blinked over it– perhaps
because we are not the same as the
French.

On May 20, 2014, car bombs left a gory
sight at Jos bus terminal and a market.
118 people were declared dead. We
posted the pictures on Facebook, but you
turned your eyes away.

Even #BringBackOurGirls movement,
agitating for the release of 224 school
girls abducted by terrorists, failed to
prick the conscience of your company to
identify with Nigeria. We posted every
activity, every sit-out and every march
on your network, but you blinked over it.

As a company, to gives equal
opportunity and discourages racism I
urge you to identify with not only
Nigerians but Africans in their trying
times.

Attached herewith are two copies of
Nigerian flags for your perusal and
consideration.

Best regards,

Jaafar Jaafar.
