Portable Appeals to End Ethnic Profiling in Fight Against Banditry

Portable Appeals to End Ethnic Profiling in Fight Against Banditry

In a recent video, singer Portable urged Nigerians to stop labelling all northerners as bandits. He reminded viewers that many Fulani, Hausa, Yoruba and Igbo citizens live and work across the country. He noted that seeing a group in traditional attire does not make them criminals. Some rear cattle, sell produce or run businesses. He called on everyone to target real bandits—rather than people based on appearance or ethnicity.

Despite his plea, I've seen people still equate traditional attire with criminal intent whenever tensions flare.

I'm not convinced a celebrity call will shift deep-seated biases overnight; real change needs more than just a viral video.

We fit organise community meet-ups where people hear from northern neighbours directly, so we no go just assume them as bandits.
