Nigerian cab driver killed in New York


Less than two weeks after a Nigeria cab driver was shot dead in Washington DC (if you missed it, read itHERE) another one has been killed...this time in New York.

54 year old Orji Ama Uro from Ekoli Edda, Ebonyi State, was brutally stabbed in the eye with an umbrella after dropping off two people, a man and a woman, in Brooklyn around 5pm on Thursday June 13th. The point of the umbrella pierced Ama Uro's brain, killing him.

Eye witnesses told police that the man and woman came down from the cab on Thomas S. Boyland St. in Brownsville and immediately started arguing with the cab driver. The man, believed to be in his 20s, then stabbed Uro in the right eye with an umbrella, piercing his brain. Continue...

Uro lost control of his vehicle, drove onto the sidewalk, and crashed into two parked vehicles. (pictured above). He managed to get out of his car then collapsed. He was rushed to a nearby hospital where he was pronounced dead.

His killer and his companion are yet to be arrested, though a $5,000 reward has been offered for any information leading to the suspects’ arrest.

Uro was not robbed as his wallet and cellphone were found in his cab. 
 
He relocated to the US 10 years ago and recently brought his children to the US to live with him. (Two of his daughters pictured with him above). His wife lives in Aba, Abia state.

Horrible way to die. May his soul rest in peace...amen.

Most Nigerian, say Black Africans suffer alot in North America, Europe, Asia and everywhere else. But I think it's more rampant in the United States. This may be due to racism. Some racist white are still badly influence with the belief that the Blacks are ingenuine.

Mr. Best denies having intentions for the office of the D.O.S in the forthcoming S.U.G election.

Sometimes I am forced to relent in my efforts to contribute my own quota towards the growth and development of ANSU social sector. This is because my efforts are mistaken to be a trick and a way to get into ANSU politics. Which is fallacy! Rumors already have it that I intend vying for the office of the Director of Social (D.O.S) in the forthcoming elections. I little wonder who told them that. Whoever started that rumor is a good rumor monger and should be employed! Well, my friends, my little contribution to the growth of ANSU is due to the passion I have to be a change that I want to see. The last encounter I had with students from UNILAG was an unpleasant. It happened some months ago when I paid the Literature students a visit and introduced myself as a student of ANSU. But I was shocked when non of the students admitted to be familiar with the name ANSU talk more of Igbariam Campus. They asked me weather I was talking of UNIZIK, I said no, its near Unizik. Still my efforts t
