Two committees of the House of Representatives have also submitted a petition to the Canadian government seeking the prosecution of Sunnberger.<\/p>\n

In a post on his X handle on Thursday, Atiku said he unequivocally condemned Sunnberger\u2019s action in all aspects.<\/p>\n

He said: \u201cThe contentious virtual chat room clip, wherein participants made threats of ethnic cleansing against the Yorubas and Benin people, is unequivocally condemned in all aspects.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am informed that the identities of those involved have been disclosed and that calls have been made to the pertinent law enforcement agencies in Canada to prosecute the offenders.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn this regard, I commend the House of Representatives and the Nigerians in Diaspora Commission for their prompt and decisive action in addressing this incendiary rhetoric and preempting further escalation.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis disconcerting episode underscores, once again, the imperative of uniting our people and our nation.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur rich diversity is our most cherished national asset and must be vigilantly protected.\u201d<\/p>\n
