The Nigerians in Diaspora Commission, condemns in its entirety, the attack on Nigerias’
Minister of Transportation, Rt. Hon. Chibuike R. Amaechi while on a national
assignment in Madrid, Spain.
Chibuike R. Amaechi who was attending an official event in Madrid was reportedly
attacked by some Nigerians.
We applaud the prompt intervention of the Nigerian Mission in Spain as well as the
Spanish police who ensured that the attacks did not escalate any further. Information
indicates that the case is being handled by the Spanish Police.
We appeal to Nigerians to be of good behaviour wherever they find themselves because
such incidents ultimately tarnish the image of the country within the host country, with
multiplier negative effects on Nigerians living in that country, who are law abiding and
well behaved.
Hon. Abike Dabiri-Erewa
Chairman/CEO Nigerians in Diaspora Commission
