The federal government has reacted to the burning of a Nigerian in Libya by three men at a factory The federal government has reacted to the burning of a Nigerian in Libya by three men at a factory

The federal government through the Nigerians in Diaspora Commission (NIDCOM) has in strong terms condemned the killing of a Nigerian in Tripoli, Libya at a factory.

The commission’s boss, Abike Dabiri-Erewa, said that the dastardly act of setting the person on fire alive is a bestial thing to do.

It should be noted that CNN earlier reported about the situation, saying three men carried out the act at the factory.

Abike, therefore asked the foreign country to get to the root of the matter and make whoever/people involved face the full wrath of the law.

NIDCOM, however, noted that the Libyan interior minister had earlier spoken on the issue as he condemned the incident.

Also worthy of note is that the identity of the deceased Nigerian is yet unknown. Interrogations of the suspects are ongoing as they are in custody.
