Full List Of 23 Nigerians To Be Executed In Saudi Arabia, See Why

No fewer than 23 Nigerians are on death rollover drug-related offences, the Saudi Arabia Government has announced.

YaahooJournalist reports that the Saudi Government made this known in a statement on Saturday, August 24.

It was learned that the suspects were arrested between 2016 and 2017 at King Abdul-Aziz International Airport, Jeddah, and Prince Muhammad Bin Abdu-Aziz International Airport, Madinah.

The 23 Nigerians were said to have concealed the narcotic substance in their rectum.

YaahooJournalist understands that the offence which is punishable by death contravenes Saudi Arabia’s narcotic and psychotropic substances rules.
