From EMMANUEL UZOR, Onitsha
Shocking revelations from Jarkata, the capital of Indonesia revealed that over 21 Nigerians are facing death sentences while 31 are serving various jail terms in different prisons in that country for various offences including drug peddling. Sunday Sun gathered that out of the 21 condemned Nigerians, two of them, Samuel Iwuchukwu Okoye and Hassan Anthony Nwaolisa, were executed on June 28, 2008, while one Augustine Ogbonna died under mysterious circumstance in prison custody in September, 2008.
However, the shocking revelation from the L.P Kembang Kuning prisons and other prisons in the country as revealed by a human rights lawyer based in Onitsha, Mr. Melly Eze showed that 10 Nigerians who were among the 21 prisoners earlier sentenced to death by the Indonesia court in 2008, would be executed this week if the threat from the prisons authority is anything to go by. Mr. Eze in the petition titled: “Shocking Revelation From Indonesia Prisons: Execution Of 18 Nigerians Scheduled For Between June and August, 2010”, stated that there was fresh threat to execute the prisoners on death row anytime from now if no further diplomatic efforts and pressure were mounted on the Indonesian authorities.
“I have it on good and reliable authority that officials of Indonesian government who opened discussions with the Nigerian delegation are now expressing disappointment over an apparent display of lack of seriousness on the part of Nigerian government over the diplomatic move already initiated by Nigerian government officials.” The human rights lawyer recalled that his earlier petition to the Presidency, the National Assembly and the Foreign Affairs Ministry in October, 2008 in respect of the 21 Nigerians on death row and others serving various jail terms in Indonesia attracted reactions from Senator Uche Chukwumerije who moved a motion on the floor of the Senate concerning the matter.
He said that his earlier petition had attracted the attention of the then Foreign Affairs Minister, Chief Ojo Maduekwe, who led a high- powered delegation to Indonesia to mediate on behalf of the convicts and 50 other prisoners serving various jail terms in Indonesia. “The Senate President, David Mark, wrote me personally promising that the issue would be addressed, just as Dabiri-Erewa granted a press interview where she assured Nigerians that the government was committed to doing everything possible to address the plight of those Nigerians.
So also did Senator Uche Chukwumerije,” he said. “Four years after the delegation to Indonesia and assurances of mediating for the troubled Nigerians, the federal government may not have taken any further steps to get reprieve for the Nigerians. The visit of Indonesian President, Mr. Suuilo Bambang Yudhoyono to Nigeria today (Saturday) is the best opportunity for President Goodluck Jonathan and the National Assembly to fulfill their promises to get relief for the troubled Nigerians,” the lawyer stated.
The Senate President, David Mark in a letter signed by his Chief of Staff, Mr. Agbo Ogah, dated November 7, 2008, had thanked the human rights lawyer for drawing the attention of the senate and indeed, Nigerians to the ugly situation faced by Nigerians in Indonesia and promised to do his best to that effect after referring the matter to the Senate Committee on Foreign Affairs. Senator Uche Chukwu-merije also in his letter dated November 13, 2008, also said: “In order to get a clearer picture of the ordeal of these Nigerians, I sought for first hand information via telephone text messages from some of the victims in Indonesia.
Following the Senate summon of the Minister, he led a high-powered delegation to Indonesia where the team interceded with Indonesian authority and returned with strong hope of a change of heart in Jarkata.” Meanwhile, there are fresh fears that some of the Nigerians earlier sentenced to death by the Indonesian court in 2008 may be among the 10 prisoners to be executed any moment from now as stated on the Internet. It was also gathered that the victims were being kept in various prisons in Nusakambagan Island including L.P Kembang Kuning, L.P Batu, L. P Besi, L.P Pasir Putth, L.P Permisian, L.P Markoba, Bandung, Bali and Medan all located in the city of Jarkata.
GOD WHATEVER THEY DID THEIR PLEASE FORGIVE THEM, IS BECAUSE OUR CONTRY IS BAD,AND EVIL FROM OUR LEDERS
Go back to school you illiterate!
Some commentators and contributors here suffer from two avoidable and curable diseases and as such spread it and infected unsuspecting public.The two curable diseases i mentioned here are tribalism and ignorance of the real situation here in Jakarta Indonesia.
While I agree with the unending army of contributors here who enjoined Indonesia govt to go ahead and execute the condemned Nigerians on the grand that the law of the land must take its course. I totally disagree that all those accused committed or guilty of the crimes preferred against them.
Some of this people are first time travelers and fell prey to the lurking eyes of drug peddlers at our airports back home,who most times smuggle in this hard drugs into their open luggage without owners knowledge. Some of them were caught sitting or drinking with drug peddlers in night clubs and once police raids and caught them same fate awaits them with the drug peddlers
This country have always shown blind eyes to such occasions. One becomes a victim and condemned criminal simply because he fraternized with his fellow black man or Nigerian. I am not saying all of them are innocent far from that but our government should make sure our citizens have access to fair hearing and consulate services when the need arises.
Come to think of it,this laws are designed to discriminate between blacks and Asians. When Asians are caught with drugs here they are deported back to their respective countries while blacks face death or long term sentences varying from death to endless years in prisons.
So,I think that those condemning this guys outright should have a rethink and urge our government to apply solid diplomacy to ease the plight of the helpless Nigerians. Those thinking that this prisoners belongs to one tribe should also learn that I have first class information as a resident in Jakarta and every big tribe in Nigeria has their share of the prisoners.
Ignorance is not an excuse. And it’s not even ignorance, it is ignorance x greed = stupidity.
@ london boy ..U talk good brother….
In every land there is a law, so if anyone crosses to any land let that person obey the law of that land, if they defile it, let them pay for it.
U talk like a jeu man
Washington do not forget that in life things are not the way we think it is. While you support the death execution of this young men, do not forget that a brother of yours might fall a victim of such tomorrow if not yourself. Your child or your best friend might become the accuser some day. NO ONE KNOWS TOMORROW.
That is the problem with nigerian ‘sentiments’; ‘favoritism’ etc
if my brother, son, sister or any relation will commit a crime that calls for capital punishment, i ask the judge to sentence him and permit me to execute him. the crimes committed in one way or the other affects some ones family. what will you say to the affected family?
mr, righeous are you sure you haven’t committed a crime that should have put you behind the bars? he who isn’t guilty of any crime, let him be the first to cast a stone.
Let the Fedral Govt. act fast as their president is visting Nigeria.
“Horror in Indonesia: 21 Nigerians on death row” …and ALL of them Ibo people. The Ibo tribe MUST reign in their greed and desire for material things.They break laws and commit all sorts of crimes in the name of looking for money.Other tribes in this country are equally on the receiving end of bad and wicked leadership but only Ibos go to the extreme of acquiring material things.
Nigeria is a fail country and did not care for their citizen outside Nigeria……. All Nigeria Embassies and their Ambassadors in Asian Countries and some part of European Countries are not doing their Jobs….,,,,,, THIS IS A BREAKING NEWS AND AM WRITING THIS TO MY FELLOW NIGERIANS BACK IN NIGERIA WITH TEARS TO LET THE NIGERIA GOVERNMENT KNOW THAT ALL NIGERIANS IN INDIA ARE PLANNING TO DESTROY NIGERIA EMBASSY IN NEW DELHI INDIA…….. I also want to use this opportunity to inform my fellow Nigerians that Indian Police and their fellow Citizens are Killing Nigerians and dumping them in Train Station almost every month……. Two Days back, A Nigeria was killed by India police and dumped in Train Station in Mumbai City India and Nigeria Embassy in New Delhi India is doing nothing about that….. Police always visit Nigerians in their house harassing them and making away with the valued properties and cash with a note that they will kill them if they talk and Nigeria Government will not do anything or come for their Help……………In 2008 during the Terrorist Attack in Three 7 Star Hotels and Railway Station in Mumbai city India…..It was flash on TV as a Breaking News that Nigerian Drug Dealer are shooting guns in Mumbai and after they noticed that it was a terrorist attack by Pakistan Terrorist and Nigeria Government and our Embassy did not do anything about it……. Two weeks ago a group of Police went to all Nigerians houses living in Kalina, Mumbai City India and carry more then 28 people to Police Station and after release them with the help of other Nigerians as we stationed ourselves in police station and the police people make it clearly that they did not found anything in those Nigeria guys houses….. But it was a surprise to read on News Paper the following day that 38 Nigerians was arrested with drug and charge to court and we reported the matter to our Embassy, but they did not do anything about the allegation and bad name leveled against Nigeria and her Citizens in India…………………. Two days ago, A Group of police man told 5 Nigerians that they did not want to see Nigerians or Black people in India again and their citizen and police will continue to kill Nigerians here in India until we leave their country and Nigeria Government will not do anything to them……. … India People have refused to give Nigerians a house to live because their police warn them not to give house to Nigerians and they always send our people packing out of their house within 24 hours without thinking of where the person would take his property to or spend a night because they don’t give our people time or days to get another place to live or take their property to…………………………… Meanwhile, Thousand of Indians are living in Nigeria Comfortably and Nigeria people and some Landlord are serving and respecting them and renting a good house out to them…… but here they refuse to give Nigerians a house, shop or even allow them to have freedom to walk around here in India and do their businesses……India Police have close all Nigeria Restaurant and Shops In Mumbai City and asking them to leave India and go back to Nigeria………… India Citizens always beat Nigerians on the road calling them all kind of names and whenever Nigeria report the matter to police, The police will tell the Nigeria person that those guys are Indians and they have right to beat Nigerians and they can’t do anything to their citizen because of a Nigeria man……………….. Therefore, i use this opportunity to call on my fellow Nigeria back Home to know what Indians are doing to their fellow Nigerians in India and also advise you guys to know how to handle Indians in Nigeria and pay them back because without teaching the India citizen in Nigeria a lesson…. The police and their citizens here in India will continue killing Nigerians here in India without fear knowing that Nigeria Government will not do anything to them……… 90% of Nigerians here has a valid visa, but police did not care neither their fellow citizens and they refuse to rent us a house and always asking us to go back to Nigeria or face death………………… INDIANS ARE WICKED AND HEARTLESS AND THEY HATE NIGERIANS AND THEY KILLED NIGERIANS EVERY MONTH OR WEEKS HERE AND OUR EMBASSY AND GOVERNMENT IS NOT DOING ANYTHING REGARDS TO THAT AND THAT IS THE REASON AM CALLING ON MY FELLOW NIGERIA TO KNOW HOW TO HANDLE INDIANS IN NIGERIA AND PAY THEM BACK WHAT THEY DESERVE AS WICKED AND HATED PEOPLE.
Chika am Emmanuel Uzor, the correspondent that wrote this report on Indonesia, please am intrested in the ordeal of Nigerians in India, could you avail me uour email address and phone number so that I will help you publicise it as I did to the Indonesians? My email adress is uzemuzor@yahoo.com and my phone no is 07030988583. Sun newspapers…..
Please emmanuel uzor go and look for better news to publish, the in ability of country to establish a good justice system is the reason why we are in this mess, look at china, saudi arabia, etc, how do you discourage others from committing a crime, some one will kill and you will say they should not kill him, why?, in fact drug dealing is at times worst than murder itself because it destroys the youths and the future of a nation. a man under drug influence can commit any type of crime in the world
I am not surprised. The way Indians in Nigeria treat Nigerians who work for them is something else. I do business with some Indian companies and I know what I am talking about.
Dt is bad,all dis forigner leave a comfortable life in Nigeria!while dey humilate us in their country,president Goodluck,are u a learner,«u too weak like dodo joor»
Washington, what you said is a pure truth. These people are very sturbon and their greed for material acquisition pushes them into any crime without minding the law of their host land. Let them perish there.
@ Washinton, it shows you have no blood in you. It seems most of you guys that lives in America are not valuing life like your host nation always did. @ Vegetarian Tiger, you are a tribal biggot, that,s why your useless country can not grow like other nations. You thought that the 21 inmates on death row were all Igbos if the critical analysis can be relayed? If u re a man enough disclose your identity so that we all can go tribal instead of the subject matter. Your people,s hatred for nothing syndrome will consume you all as it is occurring at the moment in your banana nation. Don,t be surprise that the good number of them were those found on peddling hard drugs and yahoo Internet racketeering which reasonable Nigerians will quickly deduced from the area that do masterminded such act. I wouldn,t go such far because they were not holding tribal traveling documents other than Nigeria passport. Know how to address national issues than tribal sentiments because the two are not interwoven, stupor that you are. Judging from the hour you are posting this useless comments shows equally that you too lives in abroad but you have failed to learn anything commensurate to the land you sorjioned.
Let them pay 4 dia sins,greeding igbos,they want 2 make money by force
i support emma… they deserve to die.. they are spoiling the name of this country … unless FG puts death sentence on drug trafficers this shameful act will never stop… indonisia and china pls kill them..alll
Igba. P, u re part of the people that chased them away so that they can perish there, your wicked prayers can work for you, but I bet you, you will pay dearly to such prayers if not now your incoming generations, callous men.
@ Small Pikin and Emma, ok! If they can die in Indonasia and China because they were all Igbos those Igbo Nigerians that are remaining at home will kill two of you anytime you comes back home, mark my words today and so shall it be on your heads.
@owerri it hurt me when i see stories like dis about some greedy nigerians who want 2 make money by fire by force within or outside nigeria.here in nigeria with my 48 thousand naira salary, i own a car & a house .must u ve d whole world?
Brothers do not let what Emma, small pikin and Washington are saying to trouble your heart. Do not forget that this Washington don’t know the name of any airport in America. He is a gala seller in Ojota and Emma and small pikin are just two Yoruba conductor who are jealous of your tribe., but incase anything happens to your brothers, they three wlll partake from the punishment of God.
See how u will merit your untimely deaths on the hands of Igbo people in Nigeria, firstl, at the filling stations, secondly at trackficks, thirdly, at the social gathering, fourthly, near banking premises and shopping malls. At your residential quarters of course that one is certain. At the beginning the world was created by mouth and same mouth it is used to destroy it. I now induce stray bullets that will emanate from nowhere but it will hit you and your case will end there, as u have equally ordered the execution of your fellow Nigerians there. It must be there! There!! There!!! Affaires.
let them die…they know the contry law in indo is against drug and they still do it…u cant see citizens of that country do that..it is in nigeria that we are sentimental about things…..
People thought other countries are like Nigeria that is conceived and full of corruption. Also knowing that the country you’re in is not condusive for you, there is need for you to relocate to another country. Moreover finding yourself in another nation, you require proper caution, abide by their rules ao laws. But I wonder why Nigerians are so cheap to be tempted in most foreign and civilized countries. Nigerians takes other countries for granted whenever they travel there as if those foreign countries are mumu or doom like us. If these guys are apprehended by the law contrary to that nation, then they should dance their own music squarely.
@emma, i’ve been very careful nt 2 be tribal or jion issue wit wat it’s nt conected to, bt d way u’re soundin on d sbject matr is qite difrent 2 wat is on d floor, der4 rqires i shud help n bring u bak 2 d realities of wat is obtaind in dis country(Nigeria). First of all, Igboman cannot be more greedy dan hausa n d yorubaman, in terms of drug peddling yorubas &hausas r much more in d illicit bizness dan any oda tribe in Nigeria. 4 ur knwlge, Igboman cudn’t hav gone out outsyd his imediate jurisdition in search of any beta life if dere had been any fedral presence in d eastern part of d nation Nigeria, i want 2 announce 2 u d@ any day fed. Govt. sites intrnationl airport, seapot etc in d souteastrn nigeria, 4rm d@ day u wil see hw hardworking d Igbos are. Nevadless! Ur tribe is nt beta dan d tribe of Gads(Igbo).
To dose d@ travel abroad in search of greener pastures, it’s hi tym u learn ur lesson & witdraw ur feet 4rm ur neibors house b4 he finds u wanton & den hates n destroys u. Come bak 2 ur fadaland n lets devlop dis country nigeria it’s our own.
If that is true, there is no need for grammartical war.our leaders are failures.let start to kidnap al indian white i n the country.
Do they hav to take laws in to their hands to survive? Many people are surviving in this same country u bliv is not working, quest for wealth will allways push one to do evil, others countries are not nigeria were any thing and every thing goes they have rules that are qaurding them so if any nigerian break any country law let the law take it cause kill them and give their bodys to the vulture igbo or non igbo even my brother
Well the hausa man says Garin kwadeyi kudda ya mutu a salga. When you dont value what you have you will surely become a slave to what you dont have.
The wicked Indians,do someone knows what they hate most?Well,they hate blacks morethan anyother race on earth,they‘re number one when it comes to tribalism in this whole world,followed by Yorubas(according to a BBC analysis)stupid,wicked people,let‘s start with them here,banzaye kawai,shegu.
Commissioner haba! Yoruba are the most tribal in Nigeria? You can lie like this and you make me laugh. Have you ever heard of any igbos being killed in Yorubaland ? Do you know how many igbos that live, trade and buy houses in Yorubaland Unhindered? Was it not the Hausas that always kill igbos? How can someone lie like this is beyond me. Look at facts all around you and you will know that Yorubas are the most accomodating tribes in Nigeria because all tribes lives peacefully there be it Ibadan or Lagos or ogun
We should not be sentimental about this ugly situation our citizens is confronted with in Indonesia.
However, we must blame our brothers and sisters who were sentenced to death in Indonesia for self destruction because the laws on drug trafficking and other crimes are there before they went to Indonesia, so why cant they live there without breaking the laws of the land?
I have also lived in many countries from West Africa to Europe without having issues with their police or any other security agents because i would not do anything that will go against their laws, so Indonesian government should not be blamed if they do not listen to the pleas from our clueless government.
We all do things with impunity in Nigeria and many Countries can not tolerate such acts, so all of us must first of all understand the laws of the host countries we live before we embark on any business exploits.
No section of the country should be blamed for criminality in and outside Nigeria because there are criminally minded and sophisticated individuals and groups from all sections of Nigeria.
The point is that the Yorubas are as much as the Igbos abroad,depending on the side,plus the speed the Benin & Delta youths are jumping out now with speed.It is only the Hausas who have been in the deal of looting the Govt 4 yrs now,whom have no need to travel any were.
The Igbos are at it again.All d convicts are Igbos.They have infested Nigeria with crimes and all sort of attrocities and want Indonesians to allow them do same in their country.Anyway,for ur information d Press and Judiciary in Indonesia are not corrupt and no amount of blackmail will stop the course of Justice.Let d idiots be executed. They are a disgrace to Nigeria.
Those who advise to kill should watch their back, because no one can escape death when you start to judge every Nierian citizen…. I put it to you that all Nigerians where born into sin due to our bad rulers, therefore when you see your fellow man travel out of the country to survive, do not blame him in what ever happens because that is the business he found over there. So whether ibo or non igbo lets pray that the indonesian government should temper justice with mercy. instead of killing, they should be jail.
speechless @ABAYOMI ,Na wao 4 9ja,Owerri ,Igba . P, washington,,,,,,,
owerri please dont put your precious mind on what American street rodents (Emma and co.) were saying.! Am in Idonesia and In this isseu the number of our people is fiew and the large numbers is from Yoruba and Edo state . We have only 6 igbo people and not on death row. And i believe that nobody will be kill. God will set them free.
God does not inter ceased in Drug dealing. The law is clear according Indonesian constitution. My country men are trying to get rich quick and turn blind eye to the consequence of trafficing drugs. The wages of sin is death. I will rather have them jailed for good because they one of us fuel with greed ||||| .
I pray they lesson to the plea of Nigerian government. But,U all should know that there are two things in this world,which we have paid for one and are still owning for one. That two things are life and death,we have paid for life ,and are owning death as long as U are still living. So death is something awaiting for every living body,which must come when it must come. Some die by accident,sickness,poison and some immediately after birth. The rich dies,and the poor and Poor’s dies too. It doesn’t matter how and when it comes,death is death. so should U support they die,a day is still urs to follow suit,and U don’t know when and how urs will be.
Chika I feel your pain. I have no means to help out. Were I the president of Nigeria, I will immediately do something. The issue you raised deserve speedy attention not only because you a Nigerian, but because you an Igbo man as your name implies. I doubt that Nigerian governement is going to do anything about the alarm you raise.
The Igbo wants Biafra for so many cogent reasons. We cannot be good enough in Nigeria try hard as we may. Nigerians themselves see Igbo as the Indians. Take for instance the vomit of one scum of a man who calls himself vegetarian tiger. Assume this man is the president of Nigeria today, what do you think will be his response to your sos message? One of the problem we have here in Nigeria as Igbo is that we have been disorganized so much so that we lack organized means to correct our erring youths. And supposing we are the perfect humans in Nigeria, Nigerians and their government are suffocating us so much so that we cannot demonstrate our perfections because nobody will recognize them. I implore every Igbo in Nigeria to learn lessons like an orphaned child. Behave in a way as a man without a country (father and mother) wherever you find yourselves. This is important because you have nobody to defend you in time of trouble.
Every Igbo man must see reasons why we need a nation of our own: the independent nation of Biafra.

Sun, since u pple dnt post my comments, is not better i stop reading ur paper???
I really sympathise with these condemned criminals in a foreign land. Unfortunately, that country will implement their laws to the letter even if Jonah weeps on the nexk of Indo president till next year! Recall that a young boy was executed in Singapore during Obj regime the very day one Yoruba actress was sentenced to pay N1M by a Lagos court. Baba Suwe melo-drama has come and gone, and we don’t seem to know exactly what took place and what didn’t take place . Our Press is also unhelpful and prove itself as weak, useless and untrustworthy again and again. Talking of 2008 in 2013!
In 9ja, one thief Yusuf admitted he stole N23B and was sentenced to pay N750K! Useless judge claimed there was no regulations (minimum or maximum) on the amount of fine. So, why did he not fine him N50B? If you admit you steal N1K in Indonesia or Singapore and it is proved thus, you’ll be executed. The onle thing that unites Nigerian leaders (Judiciary, Legislature & Executive) is CORRUPTION.
The eventual execution of these Nigerians is a very bad lesson for the condemned criminals but a good lesson for future culprits who feel they can trample upon the laws of other countries. Nigerians can learn and change their ways now. Our sentiments will not change the tide of things or the laws in Indonesia. These so-called human rights activists are becoming mere noise-makers; why are they not even educating we Nigerians on DOs and DONTs. We must all do it together and save lives.
All of u that are in support of the execution of these young men just because u foolishly think all of them are Igbos.Fate shall surely rain untimely death on all of u…unless iam not d through son of my father… CURSE BE UPON 1914
@ Umazi, u dont curse who God has bless,almost all my friends are igbo,but it hurt me so much when somebody is doing wel in nigeria & just decide over night 2 leave nigeria bcos of greed & endup in crime in another country.i ve an igbo friend who is doing wel in nigeria just dcide 2 leave nigeria 2 ivory coast.We warned him but he refused 2 listen & he was trap in d midle of ivory coast presidencial crisis 2yrs ago.Now he is walking d street of lagos with nothin,next thin he will go into crime 2 start life again
Bastard Vegetarian Useless Animal Tiger,I wonder why uve concluded that the Nigerians on death roll in Indonesia are all Ibo people.May God forgive u’nd ur illetrate,IBO HATERS, and people of no consequency in human equation.All u stupidy Idiots are good at is envying the Progress nature of Ndi-Igbo,its nature that made it so,thous ands of ur Lazy Idiots cant the Ndi-Igbo from being trail brazers in this Countr y.Let the Federal do every thing the International law permits through Diplomatic chanel to stop the Indonesian Government from executing Nigerians that were on death roll,No matter what part of State such Nig erians went to Indone sia from.Federal Govt. Of Nigeria must not allow its Citizens to be slaughtered like Goats in foreign Lands .No matter their concorted Offences in such foreign Nations, after all,we have foreign Citizens in Nigeria,who committ all sorts of economic crimes here,and no harsh or punitive measures have been taken against them. The Indonesians inclusive.
Most of u dat ar calling of their execution ar u better than them. Eburu ozu onye ozo na isi odi ka ebu ukwu nku. Be kiaful d way u talk
Whatever u sow in life that’s what u reap for life is an echo what u put in is what u take out. every country has its rules and regulation, whenever enter a country abide the laws if u want to live in peace and come out in peace if not u will dance their tune.
This issue should not be over flogged especially on the basis of tribalistic sentiments.laws are made for order to prevail in any land.ignorant of d law as well is not an excuse.however that is not even d case here.the question to ask is,did the so called nigerians held there really commited the offence they are held for?if d answer is YES,the best we can do is to use our diplomatic mechinary to appeal for amnesty.if that fails,so be it.every body knows that drug peddling is prohibited all over the world with different measures of punishment which varies from country to country.so if any one chose to break the law here or out side the country he should as well face d music whether he or she is Hausa,Yoruba or Igbo.
They should stop trafficking illegal drugs period.
Owerri bastard am not surprised to see u supporting ur fellow criminal jews. Well let me tell u something, those nigerian jews that were convicted for drug offences will be executed by glotine them by Indonesan govt. It is against Indonesan law for any one to carry drug into that Island, who ever does will be killed. Snice those Nigerian jews know this n they still decided willingly to throw away their lives, I say. Let them pay de price of their hunger for money. If Nigerian govt should plead on their behalf, it means our own Nigerian govt is not seriuos about fighting these evil drug traffickers. I trust Indonesan govt, they will not allow anybody or govt to change there law. These nigerian jews drug traffickers must be executed for their crimes. I know Nigerian jews will always try to defend indefensible. Why must Nigerian govt plead gfor them? Are u jews telling me u all don’t know that In Indonesan, de reward of drug trafficking is death. Ibo, Ndigbo, ho I forgot nigerian jews, don’t u have no shame at all. Since de begining of this year, a week as not gone without bad news coming from ur tribe. This is de result of ur believe in get rich quickly n this will continue until u change ur orientation toward money. Useless people.
Well in my post above I tried to narrate what the situation looks like in Indonesia where I live.It is painful that some individuals have grouped themselves to attack and counter attack each other. Even if prophet Muhammed narrated this stories the way I did some tribal attack dogs will either accuse him of sleeping with his mother Aminah bint Wahhab in one of his caves and produced her foster mother
Halimah bint Abi Dhuayb and others just in the name of verbal tribal wars.
Ordinarily, when one hears about murder, it makes one shivers n also show pity on those concern. But the truth is that, they knew fully well before they left for Indonesia that dead penalty awaits anybody who pedles drugs. But greed will not allow them to obey the laws of that land. If truely they involved in those crimes as alleged against them, which the punishment attracts dead as penalty, so be it n if they did’nt i pray that God see them out of their travails.
Baseless! Are they truly Nigerian? No,no,no at all they are Biafran why are they seeking the help of Nigerian? Let Ohaneze Ndigbo spring up and help it national abeg,which kind of peopl is that,if you hear that hundread Nigerian arrested in foreign country,you wil see almost 99 of them are igbos,i’m tired with this peopl
@Washington..you said In every land there is a law, so if anyone crosses to any land let that person obey the law of that land, if they defile it, let them pay for it…..If at all you’ve crossed boarder before you will know that carrying Nigeria passport or been a black is a problem to these nation especially Asia. They don’t judge someone accordingly. I will explain… Assuming a Nigeria committed a crime they will come to the area that he or she is living to raid and arrest whom ever that is living in that area that is black. secondly in court, they judge them in their language and sentence you without you speaking a word or knowing what they have concluded, after the judge will raise some of his finger that is when you will know how many years you are to serve and that ends it. You dare not talk. If you have any person living in Asia ask him how racist they are…like Martin Luther King said…I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by their character…THESE COUNTRIES OF ASIA STILL JUDGE PEOPLE ACCORDING TO THEIR COLORS..And nigeria as a fail state don’t care about their citizens.
I pray mr presido do nt treat dis mata true to himself. Dis is a serious case dat demands swift presidential intervention. As for those dat re campaigning dat d death sentence stands shuld look inward and ask how many capital offences the hv comitted bt got away wit it. D purported saturday visit by indo president shuld hv provided d all needed gambit to win dis war. Let these guys nt die pls. I beg and WARN.
I reserve my coments on this ground of prevailing circumstans where the justice may be allowed to take it’s cause. As regards to the life and decisions of our zealeous Nigerians who go out there, comiting crime, pushing drugs and pusuing wealth in it’s fullest, i wuld say that it is an act of greed and ungodlines. Pls Nigerians, learn to inbibe the word of God and achieve ur hearth desires through righteousnes, by so doing, God will kip u safe from all troubles, giving His Angels charge over ur life. As per their freedom from their hoast, God is the answere, He alone can unchain them and give them freedom to face a newer life again by touching the minds of the authorities and also the Nigerian government to intervain in their case. Fidelis kobis.
@ ode..Your real ode, you will die as local champion or agboro. Igloo’s don’t like to be alaye or owomida area boy’s. In the country where i am there are a lot of Yorubas too.They too faces the music against racism and injustice on Africans. We allow our myopic mentality or tribalism to rule us. You did not ask, this people that were condemned who was their lawyer, did they get a fair trial and are they really guilty of the crime. This is how other western countries takes up their case when their citizen is in trouble. Do you see how ignorant ruins our country because of tribalism, ode is forgets that his own person can be victim some day.
It is a good thing Nigerian government this time around is listening to the distressed call from Indonesia. The federal government must intervene because of one reason; to save the innocent ones among them. It is possible that there are some doing legitimate businesses among them and just because they are blacks they were also picked up unjustly. Those must be allowed to access the lawyers of their choice to get fair hearing. If anyone is found guilty of that country’s law he or she must face the law while others not guilty must be set free. By the way, why this mentality of ” I can make it here in Nigeria unless I travel out by all means” by our youths? Though, there is unemployment, but, Nigeria is far better than all these Asia countries. Someone once said Nigeria is the freest country in the world and I think he is right. There are things we take for granted here without anybody troubling you. Let’s put our act together and make Nigeria grate. You don’t have to isolate yourselves and go abroad to tanish Nigeria’s image by pushing hard drugs and fake drugs.
Impression matters. That nigeria is bad might have prompted the Indonesian authority to embark on unilateral clamp down and subsequent summary trial. These guys could be innocent in the real sense. FG should intervene fast before we turn our guns against every foreigner in Nigeria. Because it will be the same government that would be dragged into diplomatic row! Assassination awaits them here, from today henceforth, by the way nobody has the monopoly of pulling the Trigger
Let our leaders be good and make this great nation great, and stop all this there greedy and self-centred behaviour. Packing money for their unborn generation attitude.
Our leaders, ur citizens are dying outside like rams
I have said it many times at various places that Nigerians in prisons abroad are mostly innocent of the crime they label them.I have once shared on this paper my personal experince when i went to spain some three years ago.
The govt should go and save those children and later punish the real offenders.This my opinion as somebody who has been in this situation b/4.
I have always gone on legal business but in most countries I go the way they treat any thing concerning nigeria is very horrible.
The man wey chop police pension fund 34 billion pleaded guilty and paid 750,000 and he went away as a free man.
Law of a land can only be fair when there is equal right and opportunities! you dont steal the public fund made for education and human development, then poverty, frustration lead me to desperation and commit crime then you start to shout KILL HIM KILL HIM! ignorant blind fools ruling the GIANT OF AFRICA! God have mercy on this BROTHERS Languishing in Asian jails!
Every body has his or her view of issues.Apart from those common sentiments exprssed always in form of racism,Every other Nigerian may need to travel out and see why most nigerians sentenced to death need to die.It will help us if such Nigerian are killed.Man,am in Angola,Nigerian go to Armed robbry,kill people and take their money.Nigerians do many drugs for money not to be good citizens,but to carry the toga of a dude,come home,take all the chieftancy titles,become a politician and help destroy our country the more.There is no more value system.Village traditional rulers,kings or whatever name they are called,some fathers,even some churches,put mordern children into preasure to arrive,thereby destroying our values.Our government has no programme for bringing up better children for tomorrows better soceity.My advice is for those whose hands are clean,government should interven,but for real criminal,it is better they die because they will still die extra-judicially in Nigeria sooner or later.

How can we insult our highly respected president at the same time you want him to respond to your call, please let us learn how to address him so that he will help us all
True talk but…….
My brother u said the truth.
Chuks Joshep shut ur mouth up, u really think u’re in position to educate us about how things work in Indonisan. Would u have said anything better than to support criminal brothers. May I ask u fool a question, over there, what do u do for living than selling drugs or 419. De rest of Nigerians know u jews more than u know urself. U’re really embarassing us n u embarass urself. Not until u nigerian jews ask urself a simple question of why de rest of Nigerians n perhaps world dislike u, u’re doom. Is this de way ur dreamed biafra will be governed. Can’t really wait for de day u get it. 419 na jews, armed robbery na jews, drug trafficking na jews, faking of hospital medication na jews,child trafficking na jews, money ritualists na jews, importation of fake goods na jews, prostitution n whoring na jews of Nigeria, get rich quickly believe na jews n people like chuk joshep still think they have mouth to talk. One thing I know for a fact is that those nigerian jews in Indoniesan jails for drug will be glotined when de time come foe them to be executed. Shameless people.
YOU GUYS SHOULD STOP THE MADNESS OF SAYING IGBOS OR NOT IGBOS.THAT IS THE TRICKS THE RULING GOVERNMENT IS USING ON US TO CAUSE COMOTION.WE MUST BE ONE NIGERIANS.IF ANYONE GOES TO A COUNTRY,HE SHOULD MEANTAIN LAW AND ORDER OR FACE THE BULLET.SIMPLE AS ABC.
I live in Malaysia, there are many Nigerians in prisons in Malaysia than any other countries in Asia at least 4,000.. Honestly about 90% are in prison because of drugs while 5% because of internet scam 419 the remaining 5% on expired visas. The punishment for drug traffickers in Malaysia and other Asian countries is death penalty. Four days ago eight Nigerians were arrested they shipped in hard drugs from Pakistan. Already cleared at the port and distributed. It was one Nigerian the police arrested at Subang Jaya in Sunway area that led to the arrest of others. The value is about N1 biilion naira, container load of drugs. The following day a Nigerian was arrested at airport he came from Lagos it was showed on TV channel 3 news he hid THE DRUG inside his shoe. The same day seven Nigerians were arrested for duping an Hong Kong lady of RM192,000 Malaysian currency multiply by N50 naira is about N9.5million naira. The stories continues. If you are a law abiding no problem. This is my third year in Malaysia, the government of Malaysia pay for my research expenses have been sponsored to Cambodia before, right now am in Penang the country industrial state attending a conference sponsored by the government. Some Nigerians are being sponsored by the Malaysian government if they know you are serious with our studies. My friend is from Delta State he could not get scholarship from Delta State to pursue his PhD in environmental engineering it was the Petronas Malaysia (equivalent of NNPC) that gave him scholarship with monthly stipends of RM2,000 or N100,000 per month for the next three years! Can NNPC or our government do that. In summary we love money too much and we are lawless and always think we are wiser than other citizens. May God intervene in their situations in Indonesia amen. But we should stop criminality and lawlessness. No countries hate Nigerians but we ourselves, LOVE OF MONEY AND QUICK ONE. The Bible say righteousness exhalted a nation but sin is a reproach to any people Proverbs 14 vs. 34. Nigerians Repent from the main problems
CORRUPTION AND MAKE MONEY QUICK.
Thanks Bro Sam Ade, any community that lack contentment will surely perish in his quest for greediness. Nigerian should point to any country that welcome criminals and criminality. Nigerian should also point to any country that abhor intelligent and intellectuals. There is none but Nigeria. Irregardless of your tribe crime and criminals have no coloration or ethnicity. We are living in Malaysia where Nigerian embassy in Kuala Lumpur gives support to only 419, fraudsters and drug peddlers among us against the intellectuals, legal and serious students and law abiding expertraites in controlling Nigerian in Diaspora Organisation. The trail of the comment shows how we celebrate and support criminals, these set of people that are making our country a living-hell for well meaning.
Kunle, the name of the subsidy thief is not just Yusuf, but JOHN YAKUBU YUSUF.Always put his full name for obvious reasons. Dont be economical with the truth.
Stupid yoruba tribe, thank GOD an insider has told us that only six of the criminals are IGBOS and that they are not on death row. Now, the rest are yoruba and edo whose stock in trade is drug trafficking and internet fraud. What is driving those criminal yoruba idiots if not the love for money. Let indonesia go ahead and execute those criminals and lets see who will cry if not the cursed and coward yoruba tribe. GOD bless BIAFRA.
tribalism. . dats it. . then d love of money
A Ghanian who resid in Nigeria in early 70s played a song and titled it landlord travell and see, some commenters need to travell first and understand what it takes to be a black foreigner in a white land weather you call west or sourth
As long as we are still in Nigeria let us see ourselves as one people with can not do without each other,
govt of nigeria is the major problem,all this countries that everyboby is going to non is better than nigeria but govt is bewitching our citizens destiny.God has deposited everything needed in our land which many of these countries absolutely lacked then what else do we want God to do for us.Moreover about 80%nigeria graduates are jobless managing to do anything that comes their ways which does not evenin line along with their lifes career;atrocity hasbeen the prio attitude of nigerians ,such as stealing,forgery, embezzlement, misappropriation, mismanagement ,blood money, selfishness,419 and many others like that just to mention but few. Now tell me how would they go to another country without been jailed, it’s a shamful thing upon the integrity of nigeria govt being a giant of africa for nothing and all her nationals are afflicting world wilde.But let me now tell you all the leaders of nigeria that day shall come when the fire upon your roofing wiil unable to quench ; meaning that everything you are doing to us shall be a day would be out of control and there would be a great revolution and everyone of you and children shall be killed even now God have started taken vengeance upon you while many ‘ ve died and one piloted himself to death. We nigeria youths fold our harms watching you now to couple yourself and repent before the coming flood of trouble in nigeria.
Curruption Leaders, na una time to do someting fast to save this lifes o! e no concern una, bcos una own children nodey suffer… Agu a tawaa unu anya!!
I say on to indonisan govt to fast track those bastard drug traffickers convict execution.. Hang them , glotine them gas them. They all deserv what they got. Their lives is not worth saving any way. Hugo swine I never know u ‘re this daft, u n I know that those convicted drug traffickers are nigerian jews like urself. Read de article properly u will understand what am saying. By de way, if they were mostly Yorubas or which I know it is not so, I still say let them have their death cos they got what they deserved. Yorubas don’t defend de indefensible. That’s de different btw u jews n Yorubas. U’re a cursed tribe. Shamless people.
It is only Nigerian Igbo’s that commits crime and atrocities abroad, OK…what type of Business are all these Indians,Chinese and Lebanese doing in Nigeria and Africa???
Now that we all have agreed that they be executed, let indonesia go ahead and hang them till they die. No problem. kolanut amodu the biggest illiterate of this century. After reading through this piece, you failed to grasp the message . please go back to elemtary one since you cannot understand this simple english.
once again, any tribe that produced the ugly pig obasanjo
like i posted on another page, is forever cursed. BASTARD kolanut amosu amodu from islamic republic
of osun. back biters, betrayers republic, armed robbers, ritualists and every atrocities republic. shame on you useless idiots who should not have existed in the first place.
This the reasons why we Nigerians will never attain any height , tribalism have permitted every. Born Nigerians . May GOD have mercy on us all…all our comments here is laced with tribalism that I find it hard to comment here
useless ode one does not even know your tribe. you must be a minority. stupid boy without origin.
@Vegetarian Tiger, Even here in ur Nigeria most of those serving jail terms are innocent. So it happens all over the world. Yes Ndigbo like money/ material things but work hard to achieve their goal. We are not lazy. Again, I want remind us here that a yoruba couple used their babies to ferry hard drugs but got arrested at the MMIA Lagos. They hid heroin in diapers & the kids’ butt. Its worse using one’s children as couriers & it is heartless to do that.
THE HATE FOR IGBOS BY EVERY OTHER NIGERIAN IS THE CURSE HOLDING THIS NATION DOWN. ALSO THE CONTRAVENING OF THE HEBREW COVENANT BY THE IGBO HEBREW JEWS OF NIGERIA IS THE CURSE HOLDING THE IGBOS DOWN. IF YOU WANT TO KNOW MORE CONTACT GOD’ PROPHETIC MESSENGER TO NDIGBO AT partnerswithgod4you@yahoo.com
Indönesian Govt.is Mad,I pity poor Nigerians that keep on wasting their life in such a country.they re demanding for more advanced diplomatic agrement so that they would not kill Nigerian citizens,those they have already ruin their life but here Nigeria, they live like king.
I will pray to Allah, the merciful that Indonesia will execute all these drug traffickers and thugs so we can feel free. At least they won’t come back home again and disturb the public.. Igbo are all thieves whether leaders or followers.. I do not know where in this world every single citizen wants to be a billionaire. Igbo are committing erroneous crimes and atrocities against their nation, fellow Nigerians and even themselves. Please, Indonesia kill them.. please and please
our people Pamper and worship foreigners in our own country, even as they loot our resources and sweat secretly due to our Bad Government… while they watch and track our people shoulder to shoulder in their own countries….
it’s Crazy men…
Sam Ade, May God bless you, May you reap the fruits of your Labour. Education is the key to many things in Life. it is Obvious that The Jews of Nigeria most especially male genders have Jettison Education for Greener Pastures. The so-called Ndigbo and their scholars are not Doing anything to arrest this ugly situation, all they do is to build industry and mansion with their Illegal Money got from Drug peddling. The love education and heart of contributions to it is not in them. If the love of Ibo guys in Indonesian Jail matter most to Ndigbo, the Governors of the five Jews state should move a powerful entourage to Abuja to protest against the Injustices melted to Ibo in Indonesia. There is an Aphorism in Yoruba dialects that says “If all Snakes move or Crawl together, nobody can wait for them” (Because snake move one by one that is why u are able to kill them.). The Ndigbo Jews Should Unite and change the orientation of getting reach Quick.
Stanley O, you are not helping situation. What the discussion is about criminality. A countries drug law has being violated and the penal code is death or life sentence and we reduce this discussions in to Biafra.. Agreed no tribe has the monopoly of criminality but it seems some people flout laws with impunity not caring to know the damage this trade will do to others.
That having been said, we now want the federal goverment to plead for clemency on their behalf……we should constructively go about it in a way we shall achieve clemency or reduction of jail terms for our brothers. Let us approach those in the Nigerian goverment……form a pressure group and force the goverment to attend to this matter………enough of tribal bigotry and nonsense
THE GOSPEL SAYS : JUDGE NOT , 4 U NOT TO BE JUDGED , & THE MEASURE @ WHICH U PASS JUDGEMENT, U SHALL ALSO BE JUDGED.
I DON’T BLAME THE NIG.MASSES BCOS THEY’VE BN PUSHED TO THE WALL. UNEMPLOYMENT AFTER MANY YEARS OF GRADUATION LEADS MANY TO CRIME. DEMOLITION OF PPLS SHOPS & HOMES WITHOUT PROVIDING ALTERNATIVES 4THEM, LOOTING OF PUBLIC FUNDS IN BILLIONS & GOING SCOT FREE, ORGANIZING & ENGAGING IN USELESS JAMBOREES BY OLD MEN & SLEEPING IN HOTELS BY SAME OLD MEN WITH THEIR DAUGHTERS , WHILE DECEIVING THE MASSES BY SPEAKING ENGLISH. SHEDING OF INNOCENT BLOOD IN THE NAME OF POLTICS.
D LIST IS INEXHAUSTIBLE. BUT I’V DECIDED TO LEAVE EVRYTHING TO GOD HE KNOWS BETTER
Sam. Ade, Oduduwa may God bless u both for ur rich contribution . Nigerian jews are just not ready to face their problem n I pray they will continue to act de same way until they meet waterloo.ha ha, are u goat, cos only goat will refuse to turn a new leaf. If not for this jews, Nigerian image would ‘ve been enhanced but cos nigerian jews like money more than their lives, that ‘s de reason hugo swine tribe will carry drugs to de country where de price of drug is death. I say n pray to Indonisean govt to fast track de execution of those bastard if possible let them all be glotined in public place. I hope u jews get ur biafra soon, that will allow de rest of us in Nigeria to be able sleep with our eyes close. Bastard people.
