Nigerians
in Benin Republic raided and dumped in a camp (Photos)
According
to a report by a Nigerian lawyer living in Benin Republic who sent out the
story to the media, in the early hours of yesterday morning, Wednesday July
31st, the police department of the Republic of Benin carried out a house to
house search of Nigerians living in Cotonou, who don't have their passports and
ID cards. The Nigerians they found wanting were bundled up and quarantined in a
local primary school (pictured above).
A
few other nationalities like Ghanaians and Nigers were also picked up but
majority were Nigerians. The Benin police say they plan to continue their raid
because some foreigners were constituting a nuisance in the area.
The
lawyer had to bail her relatives from the camp with 20,000cfa which is about
N6000 even though they didn't commit any crime other than being unable to
identify themselves. Maybe it's time to come home!
