Nigerian Citizens Association in South Africa (NICASA) has announced plan to repatriate the remains of a Nigerian man who was shot dead by armed robbers in Johannesburg.

It was gathered that the deceased identified as Mr. Michael Chima Echefu, a native of Amaigbo, Imo State, was killed three weeks ago in his shop.

"The unfortunate incident happened on Monday 27th June 2022. According to eye witness account, the deceased was shot and killed by a South African robbery gang who robbed him at gun point in his shop located at Rissik and Jeppe Street, Johannesburg," the statement read.

An investigation into the incidence is ongoing and no arrest has been made. Late Mr. Echefu is survived by wife; Ugochi Echefu, three children and loved ones."

In another update on the incident earlier this month, a statement signed by Kazeem Babatunde, Secretary-General of NICASA, said the Consul General, Mr. Andrew Idi, made a cash donation to support the family for the repatriation of the remains of late Mr. Echefu.

"Following the death of Mr. Echefu who according to eye witness was shot and killed by some South African robbers who robbed him by his shop in Johannesburg, the Consul General, Mr. Andrew Idi in company of Consular staff visited the bereaved family," the statement read.

"Also, in the company of the Consul General, was the Secretary General, of NICASA in the person of Kazeem Babatunde during the visit to the wife of Late Mr. Michael Chima at their residence yesterday to pay condolence and show support to the deceased family.

south African men are the laziest , dirtiest , ugliest men on Earth ,a south African man will rather Rob for $500 ,than work for it under one hour, rip to deceased

South Africa Is a very unsafe

Guns everywhere

Just that they don't broadcast it that much

I wish Nigeria would be better so that those in diaspora would come back and make it more prosperous

Where else is safe
And yet no arrest has been made, even after 3 weeks......can it be an American that was killed like that and yet no arrest would have been made
Born a Nigerian is life leading you is so many ways......u no con get money join
Just forget about it.....so unfortunate.

APC is next to "drop dead" in the next presidential elections in Nigeria.

Had it been APC makes life easier for all of her citizens.

I don't see any reason why these man will leave Nigeria to south Africa were the rate of crime is on the high side .

So disheartening

Useless country called South Africa, I hate that foolish country of lazy cowards.

How are we sure armed robbers actually shot and killed the man? Or is xenophobic animals that killed him out of jealousy.

What a waste, ish!!!

This made me remember the Jacob Zuma protest where South African men can steal even mere bread
Why won't they assassinate a successful business man just to loot and take over the shop.

Chai


Naija which way.

May this sad thing never be our portion in Jesus Christ's Name, Amen.
