Okolie said, “We can confirm the sudden death of our brother, Late Mr George Onyekachi Onuoha, (Mazi) who was murdered by suspected Ambon boys at Tangerang yesterday, 9th July 2023,” he said.

“Preliminary information on the cause of his death is NOT a case of missed identity, it shows he was a target, but police have officially commenced an investigation, there is no arrest so far, also the embassy is waiting for the official report from the police on this which we hope will come soon, but we trust soon all those involved both insider and outsider will be arrested and the full update on that will also be made public for Nigerians to know.

“So far, we plead with everyone to remain calm, law abiding, and careful as we wait patiently. Meanwhile, the body of our brother has been deposited to the mortuary at the moment.”

Another Nigerian, who witnessed the incident told SaharaReporters that the reason for the action remains unknown.

“This happened on Sunday morning in Indonesia, our brother, a Nigerian man was mobbed and killed by the locals. This is not the first time. It keeps happening and the embassy is useless. They do nothing,” he said.

Friends of George are also in grief as they share different tributes on their social media handles, see screenshots below.

“Information was received that two individuals had been fighting in the plaza. One of them had some serious injuries that required an emergency run to a local hospital,” said Toronto Police Service Duty Inspector Jeff Bangild at the scene Sunday night.

“Unfortunately, one person has succumbed to their injuries. The victim in this matter has not yet been identified as the investigation is ongoing.”
