“The incident occurred at Kilometre 6, Roundabout, Bata police checkpoint,” the diplomat said.
He said the policeman pulled him out of the cab, slapped him and punched him several times in the glare of a multitude of onlookers.
The Nigerian consulate in Bata, in its reaction, wrote a note to the Equatorial Guinean authorities, condemning the police action and also demanding for unreserved apology from the government.
The note reads: “Consequent to this unfortunate incident which demonstrated the unfair treatment which even our nationals often received from policemen during ‘control’ is now extending to diplomats, which is the violation of diplomatic immunity accorded diplomats by Vienna Convention, the Consulate-General of Nigeria wishes to express its outright dismay for the action of the policemen and demands for an unreserved apology and the host authorities’ guarantee of its diplomats’ safety in the country.”
