Popular Nigerian singer cum actor, Banky W, has reacted to the series of reports of racism emerging from the United States, while also pointing out tribalism in Nigeria.
According to him, despite the fact Nigerians share the same skin colour, tribal sentiments and genocide is still predominant.
The singer used Kaduna and Jos killings as examples to reveal how Nigerians have their own issues and while the world is generally exhausting.
“This world is exhausting,” Banky wrote. “In America, it’s racism – white cops killing unarmed black people. In Nigeria, where we share the same skin colour, it’s tribalism & genocide.
“Every other week there’s another story of mass murder; Kaduna today, Jos tomorrow. So much hatred. I am tired.
“So much darkness. So much violence and hatred. We’ve heard of people being killed so much, we’ve become numb to it.
“Different day, different victims, same story, same hashtags. “Thoughts and Prayers for… (insert victim or city name here).
“Bad news everywhere, all the time. It’s exhausting. My only suggestion: please try and DO something to make your part of the world a little better.
“Be part of SOMETHING GOOD that is bigger than yourself. Volunteer, donate, serve. Do something. Anything. Please,” he added.
This is coming just a few days after his wife Adesua Etomi called out Kaduna Governor for the killings in his state.
