The tragic and “senseless” killing of a Nigerian national in Pune, India has been condemned by the Nigerians in Diaspora Commission (NiDCOM).
The commission identified the victim as Emeka Christian in a statement signed by Abdur-Rahman Balogun, its director of media, public relations, and protocols.
The victim’s brothers, 31-year-old Chukwudi Okafor and 31-year-old Samuel Eze, allegedly beat him to death over a romantic argument, according to the commission.
“We express our deepest condolences to the devastated family and loved ones at this difficult time. Such heartache should not be tolerated by any family, according to the statement.

Nigerians living abroad should resolve conflicts peacefully and uphold the highest ethical standards.
Your actions abroad affect Nigeria’s reputation as ambassadors of our great nation in their respective fields. In every circumstance, “let us choose unity, respect, and lawfulness,” the statement continued.
Abike Dabiri-Erewa, the chairman and CEO of NiDCOM, made the point that violence should not be tolerated by Nigerians and called for cooperation to create a stronger, more welcoming diaspora community.
