The Federal Government has charged South Africa to ensure that those responsible for the murder of Mrs. Elizabeth Ndubuisi-Chukwu in her hotel room in the Rainbow Nation are brought to justice.
Mrs. Chukwu, Deputy Director-General of Chartered Insurance Institute of Nigeria was in South Africa to attend the conference of the African Insurance Organisation (AIO) but was found dead in her hotel room in Johannesburg on June 13. The Federal Government said it “condemned in very strong terms the unfortunate murder of Mrs Elizabeth Ndubuisi-Chukwu in South Africa.”
Chairperson, Nigeria Diaspora Commission (NIDCOM), Abike Dabiri-Erewa in a statement on Monday stressed that “this is one death too many and cannot be swept under the carpet,” and charged the South African authorities to rise up to their responsibilities and ensure those behind the crime are brought to book, as the Nigerian High Commission in Pretoria and the Consulate General in Johannesburg would not relent to see that this is done.
Dabiri-Erewa extended her condolences to the family of the deceased, assuring that no Nigerian anywhere in the world will be treated with levity and unjustly on the watch of President Muhammadu Buhari.
