Dhelake: Neil Egbor,
who also lodged at the hotel, said,
“If this had happened to a Briton in a
Nigerian hotel, the western media
would have been awash with the story, telling everybody how risky it
is to visit Nigeria.”

NorthSharp: The gross insensitivity shown by the hotel management clearly smacks of racism and prejudice against a guest that has been a victim of crime.

If the victim were a white European, American or a Japanese or South Korean, the same hotel management would have surely treated his plight with much more sympathy and assisted him adequately.

I think Mr Okwoju and his friends should get in touch with as many Nigerian journalists and other professionals in the UK and the continental Europe as they can, and seek their assistance in giving this shameful attitude of the hotel management as much publicity as possible in the British media and blog-sphere.

The hotel management must be made to pay for this betrayal and abandoning of a guest of theirs when he obviously needed their assistance most. Bleeping racists!

Dhelake: you were xo spot on .... This is gross insensitivity

NorthSharp:

Yes, insensitivity most probably motivated by racial prejudice.

As a poster pointed out, imagine if it were the other way round, i.e. if it were a white Briton that was robbed while lodging in a Nigerian hotel, and the hotel management were to treat his unfortunate plight with such shocking and callous indifference!
