Nigerian National Dies In Police Custody In West Delhi India by iamfraud(op): 11:30am On Mar 31
A Nigerian national died in police custody in West Delhi’s Rajouri Garden on Sunday, police said.
According to police he was riding a scooter on the wrong side of the road towards Rajouri Garden Metro Station.


Suspecting foul play, cops attempted to stop him.

The man rammed his scooter into a police motorcycle, fell on the road, and then fled on foot. He was chased and apprehended by the team,” police said.

The man was taken to the Special Staff office near Tagore Garden. Police said he did not cooperate and complained of feeling unwell, following which he was immediately taken to Guru Gobind Singh Hospital in Khyala.

However, doctors declared him “brought dead.”

The deceased has been identified as Christian Eze Promise.
Police said intimation of the incident has been sent to the NHRC, Ministry of External Affairs, and the High Commission of Nigeria.

"Nigeria is a failed country", is the anthem. By that logic, perhaps India should also be so labelled. How else does one explain riding against traffic, then ramming into law enforcement officers when challenged, only to flee the scene?

Had such an incident occurred in Nigeria, the blatant disregard for constituted authority would likely be overlooked, while the Nigeria Police Force would be insulted down to its very foundation.

Nigerian government won't take any action that's why they don't treat well outside
Note! he wasn't caught with drug at the moment before you start dropping drug related talk here

He was riding against the traffic. Perhaps he thought it is Nigeria where you will flagrantly disregard rules, and when caught, heap insults on the enforcement agencies.

Why exactly should Nigeria take action, and, more importantly, what action are you even referring to?

An individual went into another country, disregarded its laws, turned violent when confronted, and was duly apprehended, while the locals were simply obeying their traffic regulations.

So what, precisely, do you expect the Nigerian government to do, intervene so he can continue flouting the laws of India without consequence?

We are in Nigeria and I know what obtains. I don't doubt that allegation. Perhaps, he thought India is "a failed country".

Okay, I got it.

Perhaps he doesn't possess the necessary documents related to riding in another man's land.

He died for nothing
Re: Nigerian National Dies In Police Custody In West Delhi India by Jonjam269: 3:43pm On Mar 31
Some Nigerians are quick to point accusing fingers at others for problems of their own making, yet rarely pause to reflect or make corrections. There’s a clear resistance to accountability.

Respect the laws of any place you find yourself, it's a reflection of your character and a way to uphold your country’s image. When you conduct yourself responsibly and stay within the rules, you not only earn respect for yourself but also represent your nation with dignity and integrity.

It's because they hate us
It's because they are jealous of us
