A shocking incident has claimed the life of Nigerian asylum seeker, Emmanuel Chidi Nnamdi, yesterday after he was brutally attacked in the city of Fermo, Italy and left in a state of irreversible coma. According to reports, he was beaten to death with a ripped out road sign pole by an unnamed violent football fan, while defending his 24-year-old wife, Chinyere.
It was gathered that the man had fled to Italy after his family was attacked by Boko Haram members in the North East.
“A few asylum seekers were hosted at the local Catholic mission, and apparently that town and that area is not new to episodes of intolerance and racism.
"The guy who is allegedly responsible is notorious in town for his racist views. According to the local priest who hosts the refugees, he calls every African a monkey. It is shameful that this has happened in my country.” a source said. Nnamdi, was beaten by the 40-year-old violent football fan who had first insulted Chinyere, calling her an “African monkey,” the police said after arresting him. The couple had been at the bishop’s seminary since last year, after fleeing Boko Haram violence in Nigeria.
