A video showing an official
at Nigerian Embassy in Italy as he physically assaults an elderly woman who
wants to return to home to Nigeria has surfaced online.
In the video, the elderly
woman can be seen being pushed outside the office by an official at the
Nigerian embassy in Italy. She ended up sitting on the floor as the official
assaults the elderly woman, shouting at her to get out of the office.
The
elderly woman can be seen struggling to stand up from the floor until the
person making the video gave her a hand.
According to the elderly
woman, she has been in Italy for 30 years and desperately wants to come back to
home to her country in Nigeria. She claims that she has been ignored for months
at the office as officials have refused to stamp her documents because she
wouldn’t pay bride.
The frustrated woman
insisted something must be done on this day as she will not leave until it is
resolved. The woman can be heard speaking in pidgin, she said;
“See as he dey push me like
say i be small pikin” (See how he is pushing me like i’m a child)
