The group at a press conference in Lagos yesterday May 5th, gave the names of Nigerians waiting to be executed as Michael Titus Igwe, Kingsley Okonkwo, Uchenna Onyewuru, Eugene Ape, Hunphery Ejike, Obinna Nwajiagu, Benjamin Onuoha and Ikenna Abanukwu.
Chairman of the group, Mr Pascal Okolie while briefing newsmen, said Nigerians should rally round with other world leaders to stop the expected executions.
"Considering that the next batch of execution will take place in no distant time in Indonesia, we urge the good people of Nigeria and our government to rise up with the entire world to stop further executions of Nigerians. Enough of the killings. Nigeria should leverage on the strong bilateral relationship it has with Indonesia and negotiate to stop the execution of the eight waiting to be killed. In as much as we totally condemn drug trafficking and wish to sensitize intending traffickers on the consequences that awaits offenders, we also condemn capital punishment especially since it has not been able to quell the issue of drug trafficking in Indonesia.” he saidMr Okolie said most of the Nigerians that have been jailed in Indonesia were not given fair hearing due to language barrier which made it difficult for them to prove their innocence. He accused the Nigerian embassy in Indonesia of neglecting her citizens in Indonesia
"Most times Nigerians are thrown into prisons for more than four months without anyone knowing about it. They are tortured and some even die in the process. The way a country treats her citizens, is a reflection of how the citizens will be treated in foreign lands. Therefore, we feel it is high time our government rose to the occasion to ameliorate the plight of its citizens. We expected our government to show concern just like other countries whose nationals were involved. The way a government treats its citizens, is a reflection of how the citizens are likely to be treated in foreign lands. Therefore, we feel it is high time our government rose to the occasion to ameliorate the plights of its citizens no matter the circumstance. We use this opportunity to appeal to the youth, to beware of the kind of friendships they keep as well as activities they engage themselves. One of the reasons there are many young Nigerians in prisons in different countries of the world today, is due to get rich quick syndrome, fast track. But in the end, they lose everything including their lives.”he said

A word is enough for the wise. Though I wonder when Nigerians will be treated with respect in foreign lands. Fair hearings are crucial in crimes like this

Excuse me, nobody is saying anything about the ppl being guilty or not. Are they guilty or not?? We are missing the point. if they are saying the convicted are innocent, then we can tlk. If not...
They must have known the punishment b4 committing the Crime.
A stubborn fly follows the corpse to the grave. Na dem sabi biko. Linda take note!
The way a country treats her citizens is the same way they will be treated in foreign lands. This much is all I saw in that write up, the Nigerians over there are no less better than the ones in the prisons here, are they being treated any better, save for the capital punishment over there, there's no difference. If our government treats us well, we will be respected outside, they(foreigners) know how we handle ourselves here that's why they can treat us like shit if we slip over there. The fair treatment can only be done if it starts from home( nigeria) .
These Ibo boys would not rest until they're all killed like goats.
Who will rally around them? Sorry.
If you do the crime, be ready to do the time.
#IStandforMercy
If Wole Soyinka talk Now thry will want to bite him with their "Tribalistic Teeth" but certain people ONLY answer these Names in Nigeria o
Seems they are executing without proper investigation. seems more like slaughtering.
...THEY ARE ALL FROM THE SOUTH EAST. WE FROM THE SOUTH EAST NEED TO RETRACE OUR STEPS. IT IS GETTING TO MUCH HABA. MY BROTHERS AND SISTERS WE NEED TO WATCH IT PLS..KAI
As painful as it may sound, i think the execution is in order.Indonesia had to even go an extra mile to place a big signboard in their airport to portray their zero tolerance for drug trafficking but no Nigerians wont adhere.Law is law regardless of whose ox is gored
So sad
Hmmm..
Please Linda Dear, if possible post their pictures..
That name Kingsley Okonkwo sounds really familiar.. The one I know went to Malasia, but you how they migrate na..
God forbid he's the one I know..
Pls can igbos explain to me why they are in the majority of those being executed?
Who send them go crime? Wat nonsense! Do u knw hw many lifes is ruined each by drugs? A forest that forbids calabash should not grow mushrooms
God pls,not again. Touch d heart of Indonesia Govt to stop dis killings. 7/8 My Igbo brothers,Why?
Yes supported, choose ur frnds carefully in order not to be lured into things like this and know what is right and what's wrong your own self so u don't get urself into things like . And I observed all of the waiting to be executed names are all igbo's. Guess this shows how dubious the igbo's are in trying to get rich. You see them being caught even here in Nigeria trying to use their own unborn babies for rituals..hmmm anyway a word is enough for the wise.
Stupid pee stick head!
They are Tinubu's and Kashamu's boys. When their Oga stops sending them they will stop.
God hv mercy in dem

Tribal sentiments all the time in this country,if someone from your state have not done it before be the first to cast the stone. Let's condemn the act and not the tribe
No be small, but really? death?
I hope dis serves as deterrent to others. Safe trip to d other world to them.
Well said. Some people will insult me for agreeing with you but it's true. The igbos are more involved than any other ethnic group in Nigeria. The pressure to impress their people in the village at Christmas robs them of their common sense.
You see your life. If we talk now they will say we are 'tribalistic'. Must you be rich by illegal means?
God bless their souls cos we know the Indonesia ain't gone let them live.
Well spoken & said. #NobodyIsAboveTheLaw
You wey be ashawoo nkoo
Them be all ibos.
My Igbo brothers, why? *tearfuleyes*

They should face the law of the land. Igbos are giving Nigerians bad reputation anywhere they cos of quest to get rich at all means.
U guys talking about igbos are sick. Is it only the igbos do durgs trafficking ?
IBO'S AGAIN , WHEN WILL YOU PEOPLE STOP DISGRACING NIGERIA WITH YOUR GREED AND LOVE OF MONEY. THIS IS ONE OF THE REASONS THE IBO'S DID NOT WANT BUHARI TO BECOME THE PRESIDENT BECAUSE OF HIS STANCE AGAINST DRUGS TRAFFICKERS.
HOPEFULLY OUR NEW PRESIDENT WILL DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS.
It is well
@Sharon John, Please shut up your mouth.
we are looking for how to proffer solutions here and you are busy emphasising on the Igbo's and their love for money. Let me ask you a quick question. Don't you love money? Have you not sold your body for money? How do you purchase the things you wear? What do you use to purchase them? So I urge you to shut up ur mouth if you don't have anything reasonable to say.
All of them igbos....na WA oooooo
Short up ur mouth dia u fool
When the last Nigerians executed names were published people did not look at ethnic concentration because one Abashin who was a yoruba name was among. Many forgot that the Abashin was sentenced to prison in 1999 and not death. But years after he was jailed for that offence they re sentenced him to death. Now this is where I got worried. Is Indonesia trying to just ensure every drug related criminal is killed? Though I do not subscribed to the idea of pleading for mercy but I also do not subscribe to double sentencing for among so single crime. Having said that, I among lol so realize Nigeria has nothing to offer her citizens anywhere in the world including Nigeria. So I encourage the citizens to shun crime and that's the only way they can stay safe. As for the igbos involvement in crime it's a cultural and society thing. When the Igbo society start seen crime as crime and not business, when they start dishonoring illegal monies made by their people. When they stop believing in money and not merit or hardwork. Then we will start to see less criminals of igbo descend. For now let us just move on as we all know how you are seen at home when you do not steal like others and you return home not rich.
There is one tribe indeed that seems to suffer so much from 'an incurable money mindedness' (Wole Soyinka, 2015)...Deny it all you want, you have said the truth. Attack him all you want, he has said the truth. Linda take note, though i'm not juliet, but you need to take note. start a forum and educate your igbo family, they need to stop painting Nigerian bad everywhere they go...haba, na only them waka come. small time, they will say they are the best thing since slice bread, they are the jews of Nigeria, na so Isreali jews take dey find money?..i beg, you guys need to chill and study to show yourselves approved.

No be say dem no know say dem dey execute people for drug trafficking.
The person soliciting for youths and Nigerian government to help out is talking rubbish. Did the youths or Nigerian government send them to go and push cocaine and heroine? What about the others that were killed last week? Dont u think Indonasia will not want people to see them as partial if they let these ones go scored free? It is like you telling Nigerian government to bend its laws because of only 8 people. That is the law of Indonasia. Nigerians should have obeyed their laws. If there is any innocent ones among them, the person should pray to God and the person will be free. Afterall, a lady was set free miraculously at the dying minute during the last exucusion. Any guilty one should face the law. Next time, it will teach people lessons to stay away from crime. Ibo people please stop disgracing and embarrassing Nigeria. Ibo people are too greedy for money. They love money so much to the extent that they can even use their mother for money rituals. Smtcheew
THERE ARE MORE THAN FIVE HUNDRED MORE TO DIE, DRUG HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH TRIBE YOU ARE OR PINKING OR BLACK PERSON
Dey shud all be killed very very fast I don't riili knw y linda is putting this story as news, Linda next time u shud copy and pest the news whn after killing of those idiotic igbos who chose 2 give Nigerians bad name outside of this country ok, #No hate please.
Only igbos them too like drug money and 419 things.....
We clearly have an inefficient embassy in Indonesia.
Indonesia is not like nigeria where anything goes.
There is no such thing as "innocent" when you are caught in possession of drugs.
Just don't do it and you won't have to face complicity in any form.
Rest is peace in advance.....igbo pple desist from crime.
They're all Biafrans.
U dnt need to abuse sharon just acept d fact dt igbo guys re just too greed.....u guys should take it easy
I undersnd d way u feel abt ur people.....but seriously u guys need to call meeting to talk to each other, u guys re something else....haha kilode
Olodo!

Mbo, well too bad dey wre caught but if dey had made it back lose pants like SHARON JOHN will luv to be seen arud lik fly dat smelled shit, kip hating no Igbo blood gives a dem abt ur noise. life itself is a. risk only d brave embark on it...... drug trafficking is a vry bad tinz, if only d Nigerian government wud mak dis country a better place I don't c any reason our youths wud risk der life to mak a living all in d name of drugs. I pray dis serves as a lesson to millions out der trying to mak such moves BEWARNED
God help us Igbos with our extreme obsession for Money acquisition. And we were all insulting Prof. Soyinka yst. #BitterTruth#

Why are they all Igbos??? And one stupid fool comment on the Wole Soyinka's post saying the Ibo are Israelite and very hardworking??? Is doing drugs and waiting to be excuted hardwork?? #IgboRepent #TurnANewLeaf #HandyWorkPays #DrugKills #
Ibo, Ibo, Ibo..... How many times did i call you? Change your ways. You love for money is bad. Your greed for money is bad. Stop giving Nigeria a bad name outside. I dont know if it is a curse on your culture but your love for money is terrible. Educate your yourger generations to stop pls. A word is enough for the wise
Even if Nigeria government did not make Nigeria a better place, that is not enough excuse for you to commit crime in another country and disgrace Nigeria. So u are talking trash. Afterall, some Nigerians work hard and make it in Nigeria. It is lazy people that live on a fast lane. So stop blaming Nigerian government for your stupidity and foolishness.
Umu igbo biko ka anyi kwusi kwanu aha ojo anyi na ewetara obodo anyi. Anyi bu ndi na agbasi kwanu mbo Ike. Ka anyi hapu kwanu agwa ba taa nwo echi,ma nwe afo ojuju na ihe anyi nwere.
