A 28-year-old Stanley Eteimo,Nigerian was reported
dead in Cyprus under a mysterious circumstance while partying at the popular 5-star
Kratos Hotel on 8 of August with some
friends.
According to Mr Udengs Eradiri, the former Secretary-General of
Ijaw Youth Council (IYC), an eye witness said that “Eteimo had met an old white
female classmate at the venue and went to say hello when her jealous boyfriend
stepped forward and warned him to steer clear of his girlfriend and claimed
that both men had a heated argument before the angry Cypriot boyfriend
threatened Eteimo, saying he would deal with him for disrespecting him’’
However, the brother of the deceased said that his brother had no reason to kill
himself and that he saw blood stains on his ear, mouth, nose and neck.He said
he called on the hotel to produce tapes of the CCTV for that night, which the hotel management has turned down.
Mr
Eradiri added that:“It is sad to hear that an Ijaw son was murdered in North
Cyprus. Up till now, the authorities could not explain the circumstances that
led to his death; we won’t take this any longer.''
“We
condemn the killing of the Ijaw youth studying in North Cyprus and call for
further inquiry into the circumstances that led to his death,’’
More over as a human being as it also
entrenched in the United Nation charter on human right that anybody has the
right of free association with anyone, received this news with shock and
disbelief and we called on the Federal
Government and the Cypriot authorities to ensure that justice was done on the
matter.
