The news was manufactured by Igbos to counter the arrest of eighty Nigerians in USA by FBI. Irrelevant tribal fight is really doing a lot of damage to us. We should never tribalize crime. For a fact, Yoruba’s are also heavily into internet scam. The problem is now a national problem and should not be restricted to just a region.

The story is obviously false. It was concocted by the usual suspects to divert attention away from the infamous 80 arrested in the USA by the FBI.
There are no 23 Yorubas on the death row in Saudi Arabia.

MelesZenawi:
But the ministry spokesman, Ferdinand Nwonye, explained in a statement in Abuja on Tuesday, that the MFA was investigating claims that most of the trials were carried out without adequate legal representation for the accused, in accordance with internationally accepted legal principles.

where are they..
So Abike and foreign ministry know that there are international practices to trial but was quick to tell those indicted in USA to hand over themselves...

but in Saudi she remembers laws..

That woman is an Irredeemable tribalist.

Anyway, This statement summarises the case.

They have all been executed....because death roll is same as been dead...

No colouration to that.

Iblad0994:
[s]The Ministry of Foreign Affairs said it was in contact with the Nigerian Mission in Saudi Arabia “and it has been confirmed that the story is false and should be disregarded.”

The IPOB Bureau of statistics news have already been debunked by one of their kinsmen (Geoffery Onyeama)!

Sad waste moslems are denying it. Kontinue if it will make you feel well.

The list was released months before the FBI list.

What the man said was that they have not been executed yet. He did not deny the existence of 23 Nigerians facing death roll! Unless you lack comprehension, read and absorb this part of his Statement:

But the ministry spokesman, Ferdinand Nwonye, explained in a statement in Abuja on Tuesday, that the MFA was investigating claims that most of the trials were carried out without adequate legal representation for the accused, in accordance with internationally accepted legal principles.

It said, “Furthermore, the Nigerian Mission was not informed of the arrests and trials. The Federal Government is, therefore, engaging the Saudi authorities through diplomatic channels with a view to finding a just solution.”

Give me just one link to the story. I will give you 25 links to the FBI story.

There is information attaché at the Saudi Embassy. The story was false, fabricated and figment of imagination of those people we all know. It is true there are people with drug related offences but Saudi Authority has never made diplomatic memo to that effect or carrying out compilation as was done by fake people. FFK is always on the side of fake information and people.

Some of you are so dull that you cant read a simple news and comprehend..FG didnt deny the fact that some 23 Nigerians where arrested for drug related offences in Saudi Arabia but their argument is that they are yet to be executed and they deserve the right to fair hearing.
Its funny how a section of the country wants to bury this news,crime is crime,'if you cant do they time,dont do the crime'.
..its highly irritating and disgraceful how this people under the guise of religious prigrimage carry drugs and batter what is remaining of Nigerian image abroad. It is highly condemnable.

The only thing I have for this unlucky tribe is pity,honestly,it suck to come from the this part of the country. Don't know why God is dealing with them.how they turn themselves to jokes and objects of ridicule in the country still amaze me. they now latch on bad news to make themselve feel Good. they are neglected in their country,they will always clutch at straws for survival.look at the global disrepute their kinsmen brought to our beloved country recently so bad that ,in a bid to console themselves,they prepared a spurious list from Saudi Arabia to counter it,even when it's so obvious it's a fake list from one of them,they still wish it's real...I pray God have pity on you people.

Keep denying it Yoruba moslem and continue blaming Ndi Igbo for your life problems.

The Saudi government released the list late in 2016.

Some of us know it was a propaganda and fake story. There are ways to get information from Saudi Embassy. We have Nigerians that are Muslims that always travel to Saudi and have engagement with Saudis. That fake story was so strange, it has no official confirmation.

Adelani Adepegba, Abuja

The Federal Government has dismissed reports that 23 Nigerians convicted for drug offences in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia had been executed.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs said it was in contact with the Nigerian Mission in Saudi Arabia “and it has been confirmed that the story is false and should be disregarded.”

The media had been awash with the names of the convicts awaiting execution in various Saudi prisons for drug offences.

But the ministry spokesman, Ferdinand Nwonye, explained in a statement in Abuja on Tuesday, that the MFA was investigating claims that most of the trials were carried out without adequate legal representation for the accused, in accordance with internationally accepted legal principles.

It said, “Furthermore, the Nigerian Mission was not informed of the arrests and trials. The Federal Government is, therefore, engaging the Saudi authorities through diplomatic channels with a view to finding a just solution.”

2016 article making frontpage in third quarter of 2019 after FBI incident. This year alone, did you know how many Nigerians have been convicted in Saudi , Indonesia, Malaysia, China, Brazil and Europe? We now have US.

Trust the FRAUSTERS to manufacture fake news from their IPOB Bureau of Statistics in order to deflect attention from their current exposure as a growing national embarrassment because of their criminal culture.
The tribal bigots insisted on demonising the Fulanis; now they too must be ready to be labelled as IGBO FRAUDSRERS.

You one the reasons IPOb manufacture this news. You loud their own crime as your lineage or tribe is not full of fraudster. Please the sake of fact Ibos are learner to Yoruba's when it comes to fraud. I am sure the first IBO person to learn fraud learnrt it from western Nigeria. I am not IBO for your information but I feel this country overhyper their crime. A case study is Evans and Wadume

ChristianEast:

Some of you Yorubas are something else.

Those dude were arrested in 2016 and has been on trial ever since but were convicted in 2019.

They have been convicted but not executed yet.

Keep blaming Ndi Igbo for your life problems. Well done.

By Sept, your brothers skulls would be sacrificed to the gay god and we would have them repatriated for proper mining in Ogun.

wink2015:


Federal government dismissing information will still not save them from a date with the hang man.

Yoruba Muslims go plenty among the convicts.

They are mainly the people from southern Nigeria who go to Mecca and Medina from southern Nigeria for hajj in Saudi Arabia.

These pilgrims take along illicit drugs hidden in their bodies and travelling luggages of which drug trafficking offences is a punishable offence by death.
