The Italian Embassy in Nigeria
has apologized to the Federal Government, over the burial of 26 girls who died
on the Mediterranean Sea.
This was confirmed by the Senior
Special Assistant to the President on Foreign Affairs, Abike Dabiri-Erewa.
“The Italian Embassy has
apologised for the mix up for dates in the burial of the victims of the
Mediterranean tragedy. NAPTIP and other agencies will continue to work with
Italy and others to stem the tide of irregular migration,” she wrote in a
tweet.
The Italian authorities were
accused of burying the 26 girls earlier than scheduled.
The bodies of the girls were
found on a sinking vessel about two weeks ago.
Reports suggested that they may
have been sexually abused before they were murdered.
