The Nigerians in Diaspora Commission (NiDCOM) has condemned the murder of one Nigerian national, Emeka Christian.
According to the NiDCOM’s Public Relations Officer, Abdur-Rahman Balogun, Christian was allegedly beaten to death by two of his brothers, Chukwudi Okafor, 31, and Samuel Eze, over a romantic dispute.
The Commission called on relevant Indian authorities to conduct a thorough investigation and ensure that justice is served.
It lamented that no family deserved such a deep heartbreak.
NiDCOM also urged Nigerians to resolve family disputes amicably through dialogue.
“We extend our deepest condolences to the bereaved family and loved ones during this painful time. No family should endure such heartbreak.
“NiDCOM calls on the relevant Indian authorities to conduct a thorough and transparent investigation, ensuring that justice is served without delay.
“We also urge all Nigerians in the diaspora to always be their brothers’ keepers, resolve conflicts peacefully through dialogue, and uphold the highest standards of conduct.
“As ambassadors of our great nation in their respective domains, your actions abroad reflect on Nigeria’s image, let us choose unity, respect, and lawfulness in every situation.
“Violence has no place among us. Together, we can build a stronger, more positive diaspora community”, Abike Dabiri-Erewa, Chairman/CEO, NIDCOM, counselled.
