Ingo Herbert, the new German Consul-General to Nigeria, has expressed his country’s readiness to accommodate more Nigerians, as there is currently no form of racial discrimination in the country.
Herbert, who spoke to journalists on Monday in Lagos, said about 30,000 Nigerians were already living in Germany, a population he described as not a “big community”.
According to him, the Nigerians already living in Germany are either working, studying, engaged in different businesses or married to Germans.
While he disclosed that the number of Nigerians in Germany was “increasing gradually”, he advised any Nigerian seeking to live in Germany to learn the German language.
He said: “I can assure Nigerians that they are still welcome to Germany, and are fully protected by the country’s functioning rule of law, policing and dependable judicial system.”
