Following the assault melt on the Nigerian diplomat in Indonesia, the Nigeria government has recalled its ambassador to Indonesia over the ill-treatment meted out to its diplomat by Indonesian immigration police officers.
This was disclosed by the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Geoffrey Onyeama, on Tuesday at a news conference in Abuja.
This comes after the ministry got further and comprehensive briefing from the Nigerian ambassador on Monday evening.
Even though an apology had been tendered from the Indonesian ambassador in Nigeria, the federal government is stepping up its reaction to the assault against the diplomat, identified as Ibrahim.
Onyeama said the ambassador is being recalled for further consultations at the highest level.
