Mr Kofar-Nassarawa explained that the law had provided that a foreigner in Nigerian prison custody should be fed with his country’s meal, not local food.

“Also, the law provides that a foreigner in prison custody in Nigeria should be allowed to contact his embassy or relatives who could assist him when needed.

“So, people are asking which type of food the suspect is going to be eating. He is going to be served Chinese food, that is what law provides,” Mr Kofar-Nassarawa added.
