Identity revealed of Nigerian woman in Canada who called for mass poisoning of Yoruba, Benin people

A Canada-based Nigerian woman who was captured in a disturbing video calling for the killing of Yoruba and Benin people through mass poisoning, has been identified and reported to the Canadian authorities.

The woman, whose name has been revealed as Amaka Patience Sunnberger and is based in Ontario, was captured making the death call in a TikTok live meeting video vowing to start poisoning foods and waters of Yoruba and Benin people at her place of work.

In the video which has since gone viral on X, Sunnberger is heard telling Igbo people to develop a wicked heart and start poisoning Yorubas of the South-West and Benins of the South-South by poisoning their foods and waters anywhere they see them.

Speaking in Pidgin English, Sunnberger is 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.

“You people will not die one day. You people will fall sick for a long time. I will put Otapiapia (rat poison) inside your waters and foods. You people will never get well.

“This kind of hatred I have for you people will last forever. In all your foods, I will put Otapiapia.

“I will put them in all your foods. If I go to work tomorrow, I will put it (poison) in Yoruba people’s food. Go and tell the government that I’m in Canada, I’m in Ontario. Hurry up, go fast.

“I will put Otapiapia, I will put Ogbomosho inside your foods. You will start hearing that Yorubas have died, Benins have died. I’m the one saying it.

“I want Igbos to have a heart of wickedness. You people are too quiet. You are too cool. Enough is enough. If you have a means of killing them, kill them out of the way, because they are too foolish. They are of no use to society. Lots of prostitutes and everything.”

Following the outrage generated by the video which was shared by many social media users, there was a frantic search for the woman including the Chairperson of the Nigerians in Diaspora Commission, Abike Dabiri, who vowed to pull everything possible to identify her and bring her to book.

The search for the woman yielded positive results as she was traced to the North American country where she has been reported to the authorities.

Confirming the development in a post on her X handle on Wednesday, Dabiri said:

“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. Thanks for alerting everyone.”
