The Senate on Wednesday, said it will investigate the incarceration of over 250 Nigerians in Ethiopa.
This came to the fore after the Minority Leader, Senator Simon Mwadkwon, drew the attention of his colleagues to the matter during plenary session.
The upper chamber of the national assembly consequently directed its Committees on Diaspora and Foreign Affairs to work with the Federal Government to immediately constitute a committee to visit the Republic of Ethiopia and investigate what is happening to Nigerians in the country.
In his contribution to the debate, Senator Abdul Ningi said the Upper Chamber must investigate the matter to ascertain the true situation involving the incarcerated Nigerians in Ethiopia.
