A Fulani man has generated outrage online after claiming he was denied flight due to his ethnicity.
According to him, the incident happened in a car park after he had already paid for a trip from Lagos to Calabar.
Narrating his experience, read what he said below:
“Since yesterday, I was on my way to Calabar. I went to GUO park first, they said they are not going to Calabar. Then I came to GIGM park to board a bus, but after paying money and I was about to enter the bus, the passengers said they wouldn’t travel with a Fulani man, which made them refund my money.
They said they are sorry, that passengers said they aren’t going to travel with a Fulani. I am doing this video to let the world know how we think in our country.”
He was disappointed with the situation, seeing it as unfair and indicative of larger cultural ills.
The incident has triggered internet reactions, with many Nigerians criticising the claimed act and advocating for greater togetherness and tolerance across ethnic boundaries.
One user wrote, “This is really sad to hear. We need to do better as a country.” Another added, “Not fair at all. Everyone deserves respect.”
As the film continues to circulate, many people are advocating for increased awareness and an end to discrimination, emphasising that such experiences should not be accepted in society.
