FG identifies woman threatened mass killing of Nigerians in Canada
The Federal Government has identified a Canada-based woman who allegedly threatened to kill Nigerians living in the country.
The chairman of the Nigerians in Diaspora Commission (NiDCOM), Abike Dabiri-Erewa, revealed on Wednesday, August 28, that the woman in question is Amaka Patience Sunnberger. The announcement followed a viral video clip circulating on X (formerly Twitter), in which a woman’s voice, mainly speaking in Pidgin English, made inflammatory remarks against the Yoruba and Benin communities during a virtual TikTok meeting.
In the video, the woman was heard saying: “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.”
She further threatened to bring poisonous substances to her workplace in Canada to harm any Yoruba or Benin individuals she encountered. The woman claimed her comments were in retaliation to what she described as “hate” against the Igbo community.
“I want make Ndi Igbo get that heart of wickedness. Una too dey quiet,” she said, urging fellow participants to adopt a more aggressive stance. “Enough is enough! If you have any means of kpaing them, kpai them commot for road.”
Identifying herself as a resident of Ontario, Canada, she brazenly challenged anyone to report her to Canadian authorities.
Sharing her photo, Dabiri-Erewa stated, “This is the picture of the lady behind the voice. Amaka Patience Sunnberger. She has deleted her TikTok account, and a group of Nigerians in Canada are reporting her officially to the relevant authorities in Canada.”
