The Senior Special Assistant to the President on Foreign Affairs and Disapora, honourabloe Abike Dabiri-Erewa has once again expressed her displeasure over the killing of black in diaspora.
The former federal Lawmaker, who registered her displeasure during a phone interview on TVC’s live program, Your View on Monday, said the issue of the whites killing the blacks will no longer be tolerated and the President Buhari’s administration will do its best to tackle the situation.
She added that Nigeria’s foreign embassies are there to protect Nigerians in the diaspora and that her office is working hand-in-hand with the ministry of Foreign affairs to tackle the situation.
Abike Dabiri-Erewa had last week condemned the stabbing to death of another Nigerian teenager in London.
In a statement signed by her Special Assistant on Media, Abdur-Rahman Balogun, in Abuja on Wednesday, Dabiri-Erewa said the killing of 17-year-old Fola Orebiyi, was unacceptable to the government and people of Nigeria.
The presidential aide said the killing of Orebiyi and other extra-judicial killings of Nigerian citizens in UK was becoming worrisome.
She called for a thorough investigation of the incident and urged the UK Government to ensure that justice prevailed.
While condoling with the family of the deceased over the ugly incident, she prayed God to give them the fortitude to bear the loss.
She said that while Nigeria would not condone crime and criminal tendencies, it took exception to the harassment, killing and execution of its nationals abroad unjustifiably.
