Nigerian students flee after being assaulted by Indian students at a private university in India
At least 60 Nigerian students have left their school — a private university named GD Goenka University — in Gurgaon, India after being attacked and assaulted by a group of Indian students.
The attack occurred on Friday, October 14, at a football field and at their hostel.
According to a Nigerian student, “Our captain spoke with the sports officer and laid down his objections against a ‘mixed team’. The officer decided to call off the match. Despite that, a few Indian students entered the field and before anyone could realise a thing, someone h#t our captain on the head with an iron rod. Outsiders, who had come on bikes, also joined them and there was a clash.
They hurled abuses and threatened us with dire consequences. We are 63 Nigerians here in total. We have left the campus for the time being and are staying in Delhi,” he said.
