Chairman/chief executive officer of Nigerian Diaspora Commission, (NIDCOM), Abike Dabiri-Erewa, has met the Acting High Commissioner of South Africa to Nigeria, Bobby Moroe, over killing of Nigerians in South Africa.
The pair met on Tuesday in Abuja.
A tweet by NIDCOM said Mrs Dabiri-Erewa also discussed the murder of the Deputy Director-General of Chartered Insurance Institute of Nigeria (CIIN), Elizabeth Ndubusi-Chukwu, in the country.
Mrs Ndubusi-Chukwu was in South Africa to attend the conference of the African Insurance Organisation (AIO).
She was found dead on June 13 in her room at Emperor’s Palace Casino, Hotel and Convention Centre, Johannesburg.
Her death has sparked controversy on social media after a report dated June 27, 2019 and signed by the Director-General of the Department of Health, Republic of South Africa, stated that she died of “unnatural causes consistent with strangulation”.
Friends and family members said on a website set up in her memory that she was murdered. They also accused the South African government and the hotel management of not doing enough to bring her alleged killers to justice.
It was alleged that the hotel had failed to provide CCTV footage to the police which would assist in the investigation.
