ipasco: Why Nigerians attacked embassy in Senegal – Envoy[/size][size=8pt]
The recent attack on Nigerian Embassy building in Dakar, Senegal was as a result of alleged disappearance of death body of a Nigerian from a hospital morgue, Nigerian Ambassador to Senegal, Mrs. Katyen Jackden, has said.
Speaking before members of the House of Representatives committee on Foreign Affairs yesterday in Abuja, Mrs. Jackden said the body of a Nigerian by name Kingsley Irogbulam was said to have disappeared from a hospital’s morgue in Dakar.
According to Jackden, Mr Irogbulam was allegedly pushed out of a moving taxi about October last year, an action that led to the arrest of five persons already facing trial in Dakar, but that when the burial committee, headed by one Pastor Vitalis Ugor made efforts to recover his body for burial in February, it was curiously informed that the body had been disposed of.
She further disclosed that on getting the information, the embassy responded by urging the Senegalese authorities to ensure a thorough investigation into the killing and also approved CFA95,000 (about US $200) to assist the burial committee procure a casket as well as pay the grave diggers and transport the body for burial.
She said the enraged Nigerians reportedly broke into Nigeria’s embassy building on February 4, 2013 and attack staff members, as well desecrating the Nigerian flag and destroyed other property, after subduing the security guards at the gate.
“If we do not use Senegal (the incident) as an example, it will happen elsewhere. There must be a disincentive for that,” said Rep. Nnenna Elendu-Ukeje who chairs the Foreign Affairs committee.

WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Unknown Member: They have set-up a BOARD OF INQUIRY to travel to Dakar, stay in an all expense paid Hotel, drive around in convoys, eat good food, collect pocket money(allowance), all being paid for by Tax payers..

If the Government wants to know whats wrong with the Nigerian Embassies, they dont need to step out of their offices just yet. Simply set-up a website and spread the words to Nigerians in Diaspora to make complaints and name officials that are problematic. I bet you that in under 1 week, they will recieve over 1 million responses, complete with names of officials, addresses of the embassies and even pictures.

Nigerian embassy officials are a bunch of shameless goats that have succeeded in showing that Nigeria is a useless country to the entire world. The Senegalese embassy matter was not an attack, simply a protest by Nigerians.

Typical pdp way of thinking the people don't matter in this case. They didn't even bothered to ask why the people attacked the embassy. Can't even be bothered anymore self with this Nigerian situation.

naija_racist: See let me tell you guys the reason, i have a friend who live in senegal he told me that the reason why nigerians reacted that day was because the the nigerian embassador rarely respond to them anytime they need there help and another thing there was, there is a nigerian guy that was killed by a group of senegalese but nigerian embassy was adamant to respond even when they hear the story, so when nigerian boys went to christain burial ground to burry him, on reaching there they found out his courpse was not there that the embassy have already burried him secretly without the knowledge of nigerians to seal the matter. Nigerians was very annoyed that why they went to protest

talktimi: engrish

He said that a strong protest had been lodged with the Senegalese authorities over the failure of the police to respond promptly.

In her submission, Mrs. Katyen Jackden, Nigeria’s Ambassador to Senegal, said a distress call was made to the nearest police station some few meters away from the Chancery for help, but they responded 30 minutes later.

ifyalways: The ambassador's name. Which part of Nigeria is she from
