If you can't condemn what the person said without engaging in whataboutism, then it makes you no different from the person, because you are indirectly trying to justify what the person said.
Nigerian govt reveals identity of woman threatening mass killing of fellow Nigerians in Canada
The woman has reportedly deleted her TikTok account.
by Cletus Ukpong August 28, 2024
Abike Dabiri, the chairperson of a federal agency, Nigerians in Diaspora Commission, has disclosed the identity of a Canada-based woman who allegedly threatened to kill fellow Nigerians living in the North American country.
In a video clip circulating on X (formerly Twitter), a woman’s voice is heard making anti-Yoruba comments in what appears to be a virtual meeting on TikTok. The woman spoke mainly in Pidgin English.
“Record me very well; it’s time to start poisoning the Yoruba and the Benin. Put poison for all una food for work. Put poison for una water, make una dey kpai one by one,” the woman, later identified by Mrs Dabiri as Amaka Patience Sunnberger, said in the virtual meeting.
The woman vowed that she would take poisonous substances to her workplace and poison any Yoruba or Benin person she came across.
She claimed that her comment was in response to the “hate” against the Igbo. Some other voices could be heard, interjecting and prodding her.
It is, however, unclear how many people attended the virtual meeting with her.
“I want make Ndi Igbo get that heart of wickedness. Una too dey quiet,” the woman said, addressing other participants. “Enough is enough! If you have any means of kpaing them, kpai them commot for road.”
The woman said she was a resident of Ontario, Canada, and dared anyone to report her to the Canadian authorities.
On Wednesday, Mrs Dabiri reacted on X to the woman’s comment and uploaded the woman’s photo to the microblogging platform.
“This is the picture of the lady behind the voice. Amaka Patience Sunnberger,” the Nigerian government official said.
“She has deleted her TikTok account, and a group of Nigerians in Canada are reporting her officially to the relevant authorities in Canada.”
With many Nigerians desperate to escape poverty and hardship back home, the population of Nigerians in Canada has continued to increase.
Over 71,000 Nigerians reportedly obtained Canadian citizenship in the past 19 years.
The X user who posted the “very disturbing” video on the microblogging platform said he wanted to alert other Nigerians living in Canada.
Ohanaeze condemns video threatening Yoruba, Benin people with poison
[i] The apex Igbo socio-cultural organisation, Ohanaeze Ndigbo, has condemned a viral video clip in which a Canada-based woman, Amaka Patience Sunnberger, made threatening comments against Nigerians of Yoruba and Benin descent.
The group has called on security agencies to trace the perpetrators of this “macabre dance” and ensure they face the full weight of the law.
In the video, the woman, speaking in Pidgin English, said, “Record me very well; it’s time to start poisoning the Yoruba and the Benin. Put poison in all your food at work. Put poison in your water, so that you all die one by one.”
Reacting to the video, Ohanaeze Ndigbo, in a statement on Wednesday by its National Publicity Secretary, Dr Alex Ogbonnia, stated that while it might have ignored the video as the work of a “deranged psychopath” or one of the many fictitious narratives circulated online, concerns raised by others necessitated a response.
“It becomes imperative for Ohanaeze to respond, especially since Mr Jare Ajayi, the National Publicity Secretary of Afenifere, forwarded the clip and requested prompt action.
“Firstly, there is no sufficient evidence that the lady in question is Igbo. Her behaviour does not reflect the Igbo traits of thoughtfulness, discretion, self-censure and equanimity. No Igbo person would contemplate throwing stones in a crowded market for fear of who might be affected.
“In other words, the Igbo travel more extensively than any other African ethnic group. They create homes away from home wherever they are, integrate with the local community, and contribute to the development of every place they find themselves,” the statement noted.
The organisation reminded the younger generation that the Igbo, Edo, and Yoruba share much in common, including cultural affinity, cosmology, morphology, and hospitality.
“Ohanaeze seizes this opportunity to enlighten the younger generations that the Igbo, Edo, and Yoruba share many similarities. We share cultural affinity, cosmology, morphology, and hospitality. The longstanding inter-marriages between the Igbo, Yoruba, and Edo have produced well-accomplished great-grandchildren,” the group added.
Ohanaeze assured Afenifere, the Yoruba, and Edo brothers that “the threat from this depraved mind should be dismissed as idiotic, meaningless, and vacuous. We add that, throughout history, proposals by the maladjusted are always dead on arrival.

Dear Amaka Patience Sunnberger, as the Deputy HEAD of Evacuation....I will be waiting to receive you at the airport.
Go and ask.....I was part of the team that welcomed evacuees from UK, US, China, Kenya, France, Spain, Egypt, Canada, South Africa, Ghana, Ukraine, Sudan, Italy, Libya, Lebanon etc during the War and Covid19.
Experience dey....so I go treat u well....even if u be like Pidom "Nobody can catch Brezee" we go catch u 😆
I hope the @OntarioPD, @CanadaImmigra20 and @Canada will track this self-confessed criminal , arrest her and send her back to Nigeria in cuffs so that she can be kept in Kirikiri before she goes on the killing spree she’s just promised to embark on.
I suspect she’s working in the healthcare system with the @ONgov and her name is Amaka Patience Sunnberger (source @abikedabiri)
I hope the @NigeriaGov will also act immediately to collaborate with the @Canada @ONgov and @OntarioPD to ensure she’s caught and locked away before anyone is harmed. They have an excuse to do something for once.
If she’s indeed within the @ONgov healthcare system, her previous works should be duly investigated/audited and any incident of death or accident under her watch should revisited and properly checked. If she hasn’t killed before, she won’t come online to promise to resume the heinous act when she gets back to work the next day.
Tribal or racially motivated homicide should have no place in @Canada
A very disturbing video of some Nigerians on Tiktok planning the de@th of other Nigerians in Canada 🇨🇦. This post is for awareness purposes only. Be careful out there folks.

Ishilove: It is quite appalling, really. If they find it difficult reading a short, six-paragraph article, I then wonder how they were able to pass their exams since their attention span doesn't go beyond two sentences.
Most of them are not interested in reading the article in the first place. They have an agenda that they must pursue, no matter what the article says.
Botragelad: No, they're only manipulating your emotions because, let's face it, you lot are a sensitive bunch, always getting worked up about something or other.
And they've held on to that. It's a right clever tactic, using your emotions as leverage against you.
🤣 And what exactly will they achieve with that? All they are doing is giving money to Silverbird.
Barcelona fans have been roasting Gemma Font for her performance. Barca's veteran goalkeeper, Sandra Panos, left at the end of the season and it seemed like Gemma Font would take over from her. However, some Barca fans are now calling for Font to leave the club. Barca bought Manchester City's keeper, Ellie Roebuck and the fans want her to be Barca's number 1.
Some fans said that Gemma Font forgot that Oshoala is no longer a Barcelona player and that's why she passed the ball to her.
The Zambian, Rachael Kundananji previously played for Madrid CFF and she gave Barca defenders a tough time back then.
