NIGERIA MAFIANS IN INDIA

Recently, there were some reports in the Indian media about Nigerian drug-peddling gangs in the country, especially in the Gao region.
Last October, one Nigerian named Obina Obiwesi was murdered by suspected drug dealers. This caused a protest by some Nigerians in Gao demanding investigation into the matter.
An Indian MP Michael Lobo said this May about the incident, “The Nigerian Mafia are going unchecked because the police are scared of them. The Nigerians are very organized. If you go into Tito’s lane at night, there are Nigerians openly asking tourists if they want ‘coca’, which is the street name of cocaine.”
TVTN India reported some months ago that it spoke to police and locals in Gao, and it found that many Nigerians are rampantly involved in selling drugs on the Anjuna beach and other areas in Gao.
According to the report, many Nigerians enter India on student visas to study in colleges in various parts of India. But they go to Gao and join drug trafficking rings.
