Following the Nigerian student's post on Facebook about how Sarah harassed and racially abused her by calling the Police on her for taking a nap in their school common room, Tweeter users have been calling on Yale University to punish the white student with #ExpelSarahBraasch.

In her Facebook post, Siyonbola says she was taking a nap in the students’ common room when a White student she identifies as Sarah Braasch called the campus Police to come and arrest her.

She wrote: Sarah Braasch, Philosophy PhD student, called the cops on my friend a few months ago for getting lost in my building. Today she messed—again—with the wrong one.
