Arab Man Killed Nigerian Construction Worker In Enugu: Abdul Lateef Pushed Arinze To Death
January 25, 2014 – Arab Man Killed Nigerian Construction Worker In Enugu: Abdul Lateef Pushed Arinze Down A 2-Storey Building
An Arab man working in Nigeria with Arab Contractors Construction Company is currently in police detention after allegedly killing a Nigerian construction worker in Enugu yesterday.
According to eyewitnesses, the expatriate simply identified as Abdul Lateef is a dreaded construction site supervisor who came from one of the Arab countries.
Upset by the way Arinze, a construction site worker is doing his job, angry Lateef allegely pushed him down from a 2-storey building around 11:30 am on Friday at the new Enugu State Secretariat.
Arinze’s co-worker almost killed the Arab man yesterday if not for the timely intervention of Enugu state police officials who whisked him away from the murder scene.
Enugu State Police Command has started investigating the murder case.
After false police report claiming that Arinze is still alive, the South-eastern zone of the Civil Liberties Organisation (CLO) insisted that “the Nigerian who was pushed down by the expatriate has died.
In a statement by its zonal director, Olu Omotayo, the CLO described the action of the expatriate as:
“a barbaric act in all ramifications. This is not the first time we are receiving complaints of torture and brutalisation of Nigerians by expatriates of some of these construction companies. These actions show how Nigerians have always been treated with disdain by these so-called expatriates in the construction companies.”
Omotayo further condemned the brutal killing of Arinze and demanded that the police charge Abdul Lateef for murder.
“Nigerians cannot continue to be treated like animals in their own country,” he stated.
What kind of injustice is this? This man must be properly investigated.
May Arinze’s soul rest in perfect peace (amen).

It is abnormal and callous. How can a white man exhibit such a wicked attitude to his fellow human. Let’s not be in a hurry to condemn him, let’s live God to justify every thing. May the soul of departed one rest in peace. God have Mercy!!!

We shouldn’t cast blame on the Arab man, all our blame should go to our national assemby that sold us to even cheap countries, that Arab man will still come back and continue his evil deed and the same national assembly will make law that an inspector in the police service should be his personal guard, modernize slave trade in full force in Nigeria

RIP ARINZE, I don’t like this,This slave master will be free on bail soon and if you ask the police men they will tell you that the case have been transferred to headquarters.The Arab beast should be charged with murder and dance the sentence music of murder case.why not sack him if he is not what you want,Am sure this Arab beast,son of a devil,boiling with hate can never dream of giving such treatment to his sick dying dog.Don’t let him leave Enugu not to talk of Nigeria.heartless beast.

Justice should be done to this man, and I’ll like to know the latest about the lebanese man who kicked a pregnant female employee in Lagos? This trend continues: the lebanese, indians, chinese etc continue to maltreat Nigerians in their own country and we have government, this cannot happen somewhere else except Nigeria.

The police would have allowed his co-workers give the bastered jungle justice.What heck is wrong with our leaders?This so called white dude will treat us like slave in their home land,when they come here they still have the audacity to treat us like animals in our own father land.I an not taken aback by the turn of event,the nation is rudderless, she is govern by corrupt,weak,inept and clueless leaders.God bless Nigeria!

this is not suprising to me at all, because i also work with one these
costruction companies, believe me,
what we the blacks ssffers in the hands of these white people is so
dehumanising,and degraging. even those days of slavery can not be compared
to what they are doing to us now. and d irony of the whole thing is that, d white expatriates are so lame to the xtent that they are not even qualify to be taken as labourers in this country, yet they bribe our immigration and embassy officials and enter the coutry under the guise of concrete supretendent and other stupid names.i feel terribly sad about the whole situation, becuse no body seems to care at all, i mean the human right groups in the country, please u people should rise up and help us please, i am begging u all.
