The National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party, Uche Secondus has stated that the humiliation of Nigerians abroad is directly connected to the misgovernance of the All Progressives Congress.

He disclosed this in a statement titled, ‘Secondus seeks stiffer penalty on Indonesia … Bemoans the debasing of Nigerians abroad' signed by his Media Adviser, Ike Abonyi, in Abuja, on Thursday, August 12, 2021.

Secondus advised the Federal Government to apply the stiffest allowable penalty on Indonesia over the humiliating treatment meted out to a Nigerian diplomat by its security officials.

“Secondus, who expressed deep discontent on the matter, charged Nigerian government to apply no constraints in responding to the unprovoked and unwarranted manhandling of the Nigerian diplomat.

“No Nigerian should receive such dehumanizing treatment, more so to a diplomat who enjoys some privileges while on duty to any country.

“He said every reasonable step should be taken including recalling the Nigerian Ambassador to Indonesia and/or the expulsion of their ambassador here if adequate remorse and commensurate punishment is not meted out to those Indonesian officials,” parts of the statement reads.
