In a viral video, the official identified as “Mr Martin” was caught with
his pants off in a hotel room after he had allegedly asked the unnamed
lady to have sex with him before he could release the passport.
The
voice behind the camera accused Martin of several unwanton sexual
encounters he had in the past in exchange for delivering his official
duty.
A few hours after the video surfaced online on Tuesday,
November 13, the embassy announced the suspension of the official who
works as local staff in the security unit “with immediate effect.”
The
Nigeria’s Ambassador in Germany, Yusuf Tuggar, who confirmed the
suspension in a statement, disclosed that the official had been in
connection with allegations of sexual abuse and other serious criminal
activity in return for official services.
“We have a
zero-tolerance policy towards abuse of office and especially of sexual
misconduct. Our full resources are being deployed to investigate a very
serious incident and any other abuses that this inquiry may reveal.
The investigation is taking place with all the urgency and diligence that this very serious situation demands.
When
due process is complete, any guilty party can expect to face the full
weight of the law. Our heartfelt sympathies are with any innocent
victims of abuse,” he said.
