The Chairman of Nigerians in Diaspora Commission, NIDCOM, Abike Dabiri-Erewa, has demanded for the immediate investigation and prosecution of Italian National, Pierangelo Pellizzar, who killed his Nigerian wife, Rita Amenze.
Dabiri-Erewa alongside the Nigerian Ambassador to Italy, Amb Mfawa Abam and the Nigerian Community in Italy, are perturbed by the sad event, and called for justice.
Giving an update on the sad event that happened over the weekend, the former House of Representative Memeber said that though the estranged husband of the late Nigerian, Pellizzar, has been arrested, but thorough investigations need to be carried out by the Italian Security agency.
In a statement in Abuja on Sunday signed by Head of Media, Public Relations and Protocol Unit, Abdur-Rahman Balogun, Dabiri-Erewa said that the alleged killing of the housewife by her husband due to the fact that she filed for divorce was quite unfortunate and sad.
In the same vein, Nigerian Ambassador to Italy, Mfawa Omini Abam, said the death of the Nigerian was so pathetic, promising that the Embassy will ensure that a proper investigation is carried out.
It was gathered that the late Rita had filed for divorce which angered her embittered husband to carry out the heinous act of killing her.
Pellizzar, 61-years, allegedly shot 31-year-old Rita four times in front of her colleagues in the parking lot of MFMushroom, a company where she worked on Friday morning, in Noventa Vincentina at about 7:30am until she died.
