A Nigerian man working as a delivery driver was shot and killed on the job in Mitchellville, Maryland, USA, on Thursday morning, August 12, 2021.

The victim has been identified as Noel Njoku, a 48-year-old married man with four children: two daughters, age 15 and 13, and an 11-year-old twin boys.

NBC Washington reports that Njoku was found suffering from gunshot wounds at about 12:20 a.m. in a car in the 3700 block of Lottsford Vista Road.

According to the police, the preliminary investigation revealed Njoku was delivering food to a home in the area when he was sh*t. He was taken to a hospital, where he died. It wasn’t immediately clear who killed Njoku or why.

Njoku was a happy, “peace-loving person” who moved to the U.S. from Nigeria decades ago. He had only recently started working for DoorDash, his brother, Chidi Njoku, told newsmen.

“Please, anybody who has any information, please, please, please — anybody who has any information should come and help us out, please,” he said through tears.

People always pretend as if those places are Heaven.

He had been destined to die by a bullet. Whether in Nigeria or the USA.

The truth is that crime rate is higher in the US than it is here. I Watched an interview of an American woman who was questioned about her decision to move to Nigeria, and her response was that, she was more worried about being shot and killed in the US, than being kidnapped in Lagos. Just that the US have a working system, and a more responsive security system as the case may be.
