After releasing tribalist comments against Igbos, a Nigerian woman has found herself in serious trouble.

Rant HQ founder, Suzan Ade Coker might be in for more trouble after labeling Igbos in her group ‘senseless’.

Recall that we reported that the owner of the popular Facebook group which boasts of over 1 million members got into trouble after she insulted Igbos and vowed not to apologise over the ethnic diatribe.

After Igbos in the group expressed disappointment over her post, she asked those who were offended to exit her group.

Not happy with that, some Igbos accused her of being a tribalist and reported her to the organizations she represents.

Her website, ranthq.org has been suspended alongside an advert on coronavirus she shot for the World Health Organization which had been running on the international website’s Twitter page for some time now.

There is currently a petition on Change.org accusing her of scamming a company of thousands of Euros. The petition has garnered over 8,000 signatures calling for the closure of her company and investigation into the allegation.

Facebook has also given her warning after the group was reported for hate speech.

Reacting, she wrote:

Thank you Facebook!

Some posts removed but group NOT pulled down!
