 The Indonesian Ambassador to Nigeria, Ambassador Harry Purwanto, has issued a stern warning on what his country 

 

would continue to do to the Nigerian Government regarding its citizens living in the country or traveling from any part of the world into the country.

This was in reaction to the rampant cases of Nigerians who deal in and bring hard drugs into the country.

Speaking on Wednesday, he advised Nigerians to desist henceforth from engaging in or allowing themselves to be used for trafficking of drugs to Indonesia and warned that his government there is an existing legislation which now carries the death penalty not only for Nigerians but for everyone including Indonesians found dealing in or in possession of hard drugs.

He said: “Let me once again remind Nigerians wishing to travel to Indonesia, that the Indonesian Government, like every other government, has its laws and regulations.

“It is, therefore, expected of Nigerians and other foreigners visiting Indonesia to always obey her laws prohibiting anybody’s involvement in drug crimes.

“There are very strict laws for anyone arrested for drug-related offences in any part of Indonesia today.”
