Why Ex-niger Delta Militants Attacked Nigerian Embassy In Russia- Ambassador by naijacenter(f): 7:28am On Oct 04, 2013
The students claimed to be owed over a million naira each.

The Nigerian Ambassador to Russia, Ekanem Assam, has threatened to recommend the repatriation of some Nigerian students, who invaded the country’s embassy in Moscow on September 30.

Ex-militant Niger deltaMr. Assam made the threat in a telephone interview in Abuja on Wednesday.

He said the embassy was invaded by 21 ex-Niger Delta militants, who are currently studying in Russia, under the Federal Government’s amnesty programme.

He accused the students of destroying furniture, cars, computers, televisions, communications system and a 17th century artefact donated to the embassy by the Federal Ministry of Culture.

The ambassador, who said he was in Nigeria when the incident happened, disclosed that the deputy defence attaché was beaten up by the protesting students.

He said the ex-militants were protesting unpaid allowances by the Federal Government, including warm clothing and transport allowances.

Their other demands included an increase in their housing allowance from $200 (N32, 400) to $1,600 (N259, 000) a month and immediate payment of their monthly stipend, he said.
