President Buhari Set To Probe The Killing Of Nigerian Citizens Abroad

The recent wave of deaths of Nigerian citizens in foreign countries has attracted the attention of the presidency.
Speaking on Channels TV last night, the senior special assistant to the president on foreign affairs and diaspora, Mrs Abike Dabiri-Erewa said the presidency is already looking into the issue.
According to Dabiri-Erewa, President Buhari had already instructed her team to look into the issues and ensure that justice is done.
According to her, the president will not condone the killings of Nigerians anywhere in the world.
“This (killing of Nigerians abroad) will not be tolerated by this administration,” she said.
She also reiterated the president’s commitment to citizen’s diplomacy and protection of Nigerians wherever they may be.
Dabiri-Erewa’s remarks came as a result of the the killing of a Nigerian asylum seeker, who was attacked and beaten to death by a racist football fan in Italy.
At the same period, a young Nigerian student in the UK, Folajimi Orebiyi was stabbed to death by youths on bicycles after being pursued.
