The University of Warwick has launched an investigation after a Nigerian student reported bananas in her shared school accommodation had been graffitied with racial slurs.

Faramade Ifaturoti posted a picture on Twitter, writing: “Just entered the kitchen and look at what one of my flatmates has done. I am extremely disgusted.”

'Monkey' and 'nigga', can clearly be seen written on the fruit.

The tweet quickly gathered attention and has been retweeted almost 3,000 times. The university responded to it, saying: “We’re really sorry you’ve had to experience this. It is completely unacceptable. Please DM us your email and we will escalate.”

She told BuzzFeed she felt “targeted” and that “this is not the first time something like this has happened”. In February, Ifaturoti had also complained about racism in a tweet, when she wrote: “Racism is very real. Especially in this Warwick I can’t lie.”

Ifaturoti also expressed disappointment at the university’s response. Other Warwick students were quick to express their dismay - and anger - at both the incident and the university’s response. She said “I’m highly disappointed that it took a Twitter escalation in order for you to respond.”

It's a shame to those that call her 'nigga' and 'monkey', u wanna know why it's a shame? Because they sleep in the same flat with a 'nigga/monkey'. They go to the same school as a 'nigga/monkey'. Racists are very stupid.

I think Buhari is the reason they insulted you like that.. Truth is they believe no right thinking human will vote such a calamity to lead them but Nigerians did. It doesn't take away the fact that whoever wrote that shyt is a foolish punk.. cool

Why get disgusted over what a racist did?

Racists are incomplete humans.

The more you get disgusted with a racist over his/her manifestations of racism, the more the racist draws joy from his/her racial manifestations.

The best approach to neutralize a white racist is let the racist understand he/she is subhuman - racists have peanut brains.
