“This happened on Sunday morning in Indonesia, our brother, a Nigerian man was mobbed and killed by the locals. This is not the first time. It keeps happening and the embassy is useless. They do nothing,” he said.
The incident was confirmed by Chief Omeogo Okolie, the president of the Nigerian community in Indonesia.
“We can confirm the sudden death of our brother, Late Mr George Onyekachi Onuoha, (Mazi) who was murdered by suspected Ambon boys at Tangerang yesterday, 9th July 2023,” he said.
“Preliminary information on the cause of his death is NOT a case of missed identity, it shows he was a target, but police have officially commenced an investigation, there is no arrest so far, also the embassy is waiting for the official report from the police on this which we hope will come soon, but we trust soon all those involved both insider and outsider will be arrested and the full update on that will also be made public for Nigerians to know.
“So far, we plead with everyone to remain calm, law-abiding, and careful as we wait patiently. Meanwhile, the body of our brother has been deposited in the mortuary at the moment.”
