Eric Mayooraz, who was posted to Nigeria last year to head the Swiss mission, is alleged to have arrived the country in the company of his gay partner, a Brazilian named Mr. Carlos. Last Thursday, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs confirmed that it was aware of the issue and has commenced probe.
The spokesperson of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Mr Akinremi Bolaji, said it had been brought to the notice of the ministry that an envoy had a male spouse in the country. He said: “We are aware of the development and have started investigation.
It is either they have deceived us because we would never have allowed such a person to enter the country if we were aware before now. We have a law, which must be obeyed by all. If we find him culpable, he will be made to face the full wrath of the law.”…. or outrightly pardoned cuz he is a foreigner….
