The House of Representatives, Thursday
instituted a probe into the death of a a 15-
year-old Nigerian student, Austine
Chukwuebuka Ogukwe, in Ghana, with a bid to
discerning the circumstances surrounding his
mysterious death.
Speaking with the House committee on
Diaspora, the deceased’s father, Mr. Obioma
Ogukwe, said that he learnt of his son’s
demise on October 16 from the police in Ghana
who told him his son had drowned the
previous day .
“At the morgue I discovered that he was
stabbed in the rib and there were other
wounds with blood on his forehead and left and
right sides”, he said.
Ogukwe therefore urged the House to get to
the root of the matter, as the stab wound
suggests foul play.
Over 200,000 Nigerian students are presently
studying in Ghanaian universities.
