The father Mr Ikechukwu Momah, on behalf of the family thanked the NIDCOM Boss and her team for the prompt visit and pleaded for a thorough investigation into the matter.

Last month, two Nigerians, identified as Tosin Amos-Arowoshegbe and Chibueze Momah, were shot dead at a club in Canada on July 23, 2022.

Both victims worked at the ATL lounge in Vaughn, Ontario as security guards.

The killers were said to have fled the scene of the incident before the police arrived.

The police, in the statement issued, said they are currently seeking information on a suspect linked to the shooting.

The NIDCOM Boss had earlier issued a strong statement condemning the killing of the two Nigerians and urging the Canadian authorities to fish out the killers.

Meanwhile, this is not the first time, Nigerians have been killed mindlessly abroad. Cases of the murder of Nigerians in foreign lands continue to occur intermittently.

In two years, at least 16 Nigerians have been killed in eight countries, some insight reveals.

According to the data, South Africa leads the chart with 4, America 3, Canada 2, Italy 2, Ukraine 1, Ireland 1 and Cote d’ Ivoire 1 in just TWO YEARS!
