Nigerian protesters destroy Nigerian Embassy in Jakarta, Indonesia
Africa & World Politics, Headlines Sunday, June 28th, 2020By Nwafor Sunday
Barely seven days after parts of the residential building in the Nigerian embassy was destroyed in Ghana, Nigerians protesting the alleged discrimination and violation of their human rights by Indonesian immigration officials, stormed the country’s embassy and vandalized some properties belonging to the Nigerian government.
In a video clip obtained by SaharaRepoters, some persons believed to be Nigerians were spotted carrying placards with various inscriptions.
They were heard chanting “Nigeria is not helping us in this country. We don’t have an Embassy. We no go ‘gree.”
Recall that a 41-year-old Nigerian fell from a nine-storey building while trying to escape from Indonesian immigration officers.
His fall, however, sparked protest amongst Nigerians, leading to the destruction and vandalisation of the country’s properties in the embassy.
His words, “Absolutely deplorable and disgraceful criminal behaviour by Nigerian hooligans who without justification attacked the Nigerian Embassy in Jakarta, Indonesia today.
“Every effort will be made to identify them and see they are severely punished. Totally unacceptable behavior.”
