The chairman of the Nigerians in the Diaspora Commission, Mrs Abike Dabiri-Erewa has said the South African Police is being sued over the assault on a Nigerian resident in the country

It would be recalled that ex-Big Brother Africa housemate and model, Tayo Faniran, was assaulted and strangled by South African police on Friday.

He was going in his car when the police stopped him and assaulted him without any evidence against him.

He captured the incident live on camera for the whole world to see what happened and later explained in another separate video how he was thoroughly tortured by the police.

According to an Instagram live video shared online, Faniran was arrested and brutally tortured after he refused to enter an unmarked police vehicle.

Dabiri-Erewa, however, got hold of the news and gave a report about the release of Faniran and said she was going to ensure justice was served in this matter.

She said that the South African Police has been sued and that a case is being pressed against them for their brutality.

Nawaoo

South Africa is exulted over Nigeria by Nigerians for having working and more sophisticated institutions. Well, the purpose for having some of these institutions and why some Nigerians put down their own nation for not having them is their utility in promoting best human rights practice and facilitating quality of life in the nation state. Those Nigerians that have the capacity and declare here that they mean to sue the South Africa police for assaulting our brother Tayo Faniran should proceed forthwith. In addition to sounding a warning to the South Africa authorities that we Nigerians will not always tolerate these inhuman and undignified treatment of our people by them, serving as example to other African citizens and equal recipient of South African xenophobic attacks, on what measures they could take, the process will be useful in illustrating to Nigeria why South Africa deserves or does not deserve the reputation for excellence Nigerians ascribe her when insulting their own national failings in these regards.
