NGThe Nigerian Federal Government has called for a full investigation and compensation for the family of Usama Murtala, a Nigerian trader who died shortly after being released from a Côte d'Ivoire prison. The minister of foreign affairs, Amb. Bianca Odumegwu-Ojukwu, raised the case during a meeting with Côte d'Ivoire's ambassador to Nigeria, highlighting that the Nigerian Embassy was not informed of the detainee's arrest, delaying diplomatic efforts that could have potentially saved Murtala's life. Murtala, along with five other Nigerian youths, was arrested in Abidjan without formal charges or trials. The others were eventually released following diplomatic pressure. The Nigerian government is also seeking the return of confiscated items and assurances that future detentions of Nigerians in Côte d'Ivoire will be reported to the embassy promptly.
