The Chairman/CEO of the Nigerians in Diaspora Commission (NiDCOM), Hon. (Dr) Abike Dabiri-Erewa has said that the suspect in the murder of Mr. Ogochukwu Alika has been arrested by the Italian police and is expected to be charged to court.

In reaction to the murder of the Nigerian national, the NiDCOM Boss said the Italian police were working and cooperating with the Nigerian mission in Italy to ensure that justice is done, and that the culprit faces the consequences he deserves.

Also, the Nigerian mission is requesting that the Italian government provides Mrs. Alika, the widow, a good job to cater for the rest of the family, being that the deceased was the family’s bread winner.
