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.

Nigerian govt reveals identity of woman threatening mass killing of fellow Nigerians in Canada

The woman has reportedly deleted her TikTok .

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 ed 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 , 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 who posted the “very disturbing” video on the microblogging platform said he wanted to alert other Nigerians living in Canada.

“Be careful out there, folks,” he said.

One deranged mentally unstable fellow spoke out of the influence of hatred and bitterness, and people are already condemning the entire Igbos. Some say their nightmares H.E Peter Obi never react. Her personal opinion and she is not speaking for the Igbos or represent the Igbos. Catch her, depot her back to Nigeria let Tinubulation and BATeria people are currently facing in Nigeria resets those madness off her brain.

C h a i..

Colonialists are thumbing different strokes of string at the same time.

They're still applying the old formula and it's really working on the Naijay-Arean Masses!!

Who told you the actor wasn't tossed and employed from the background to drive the usual Naijay-Arean mumu-button mayhem??

Hmm

Many of you kept denying the video was made up by Tinubu ers. All of you are the same here

When Igbos were threatened by the October 1st Igbos-must-go threat by the Arewa Youth Forum, I know how it was touchy especially not when the failed Nigerian federation have been dissolved already.

Same thing with the case advocated by that fella that threatened Igbos in Lagos last month during the #EndBadGovernanceInNigeria protests. I am still waiting for that fella to be arrested because like this evil woman, his identity too is in public domain. Get them all arrested to face the law.

When one dera.nged Yoruba guy made similar comment and Yorubas dissociated themselves from him, ensured that he was arrested and all, you guys were busy shouting "he's saying the mind of all Yorubas yen yen yen", but now that your sister has said worse we should not pin it on her tribe??

😆

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.

Amaka really disappoint me cha..

Village people don successfully draw map of how Dem wan take destroy this madam life after she don succeed port from Naija...

Na wa.

Good

Good of them.

Nnamdi Kanu started all these nonsense before others across the different tribes took up the challenge.

Without Kanu, there would have been no Adeyinka Grandson.

I dare say this lady would be one of the eager listeners of Kanu's numerous radio broadcasts when he was still free to express his human rights of free anarchy-laden speech.

May hatred nor blind us in our 5 PLOTS

When are the below people listed by Reno going to condemn...

And the below 👇

Emotionally sick woman,psychos like this who has no regards for sanctity of human life full USA and Canada,when you blacks go to oyibo land to start eating rubbish GMO foods that twist your brains.this is the result. You ppl work like jackey to serve mammon to pay ya mountain bills and live miserable thereafter

They should DEPORT that yam leg and her fellow TERRORISTS back to NIGERIA, and rest their WICKEDNESS in ALAGBON CLOSE for 25 years

That woman abi lady should be jailed for 50 years in Canada. Canadian government should not dare deport her back to Nigeria; she is a baggage, we Igbos won't condone her, she acted on her own foolishness, it's never in us, tufiakwa.


Imagine the foolish woman added the great Edo people in her list of people she wish to poison? What a senseless woman. I can't wait to read about her arrest, prosecution and imprisonment, what a useless woman. She must have been close to a Yoruba bigot that infected her with the spirit of extreme hatred, bigotry and stupidity

These people can go to any length.

I expected this. Highly predictable.

Whataboutism.

Shut up
Hypocritical bigot

Since the day Tilumpu-the guinea pig student of govt secondary school- decided to run for presidency Nigeria has known no peace through tribal bigotry and it makes me wonder what sort of divisive agent is he.

Well Handled.
People have gone naught across the length and breadth of Nigeria.
The welfare of humans in Nigeria is nothing to write about, as well as the ill-fated treatments of other citizens by others. These fuelled all these.
The Hate is always evergreen. It's becoming repulsive and it appears Government enjoys it a lot that a sitting First Lady could confidently in such Hatred making her the worst First Lady in history. I weep for Nigeria.

I have had to assist people across the entire nation without knowing them. I weep
