Nigerian singer, Bankole Wellington popularly known as Banky W has also joined other Nigerians to lament about the killings said to be ongoing in Southern Kaduna, Kaduna state.
The singer via a tweet on his twitter handle said while racism is killing black people in America, tribalism and genocide is claiming lives in Nigeria.
Wellington, also a politician, decried the weekly reports of mass murder taking place in one part of Nigeria or the other, saying he is tired.
He tweeted: “This world is exhausting. 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.
