Nigerian-German Woman Cries Out Against Alleged Injustice in Germany

Christiana Clajus, a Nigerian-German citizen, has made an appeal and shared her distressing experiences, calling for urgent intervention in what she describes as a case of grave injustice.

“I’m trapped, I’m trapped,” she exclaimed in a three-minute and 18-second video shared on social media.

Christiana’s ordeal spans seven years, and they involve allegations of physical assault, defamation, and protracted divorce proceedings. Despite seeking legal representation from seven different lawyers, she believes the justice system has utterly failed her.

“I’m here to share my ordeal with my fellow Nigerians about the situation that I’m in in Germany. I have been trapped for the past seven years with my husband, a German man, from the case of physical assault to defamation, and from defamation to divorce. In this process, I’ve had seven different lawyers. Still, there’s no justice for me,” she said.

Allegations of Suppressed Evidence

Her frustration stems from what she perceives as a systemic suppression of crucial evidence in her case. She alleges that not only have lawyers conspired against her, but even private investigators have joined in, leaving her feeling completely helpless.

“As the case is now, I’m trapped. I’m trapped. All evidence that will help in my case has been suppressed. Lawyers have ganged up against me. Even private investigators have ganged up against me with my lawyers. I cannot see my way forward; I am trapped here with my two children.”

Claims of Discrimination

A German citizen herself, Christiana feels discriminated against due to her Nigerian heritage. She expressed dismay at the treatment she has received in the German legal system.

“This oppression is too much; I cannot take it any longer. I’m a German citizen; my two children are also German, but I’m being called a Nigerian woman, and the court doesn’t see anything wrong with it.”

“Lawyers have ganged up to suppress evidence that will help in my case, and the son filed a lawsuit against me in different courts. I’m running from court to court, swimming in debt. I cannot see my way out. I am trapped; I am trapped with this wicked system.”

A Plea to the International Community

Her experience sheds light on the struggles that many immigrant women face in navigating foreign legal systems, particularly in cases of domestic and legal disputes.

In a desperate plea for assistance, Christiana is now calling on the international community, human rights organisations, and the Nigerian government to intervene.

“I’m using this opportunity to call on the international community, International Human Rights, and Amnesty International to come and deliver me from the hands of this justice system that is toxic, that is hostile,” she pleaded.

Appeal to Nigerian Authorities

Specifically, Christiana has directed her plea toward Nigerian President Ahmed Bola Tinubu and Abike Dabiri, Chairman/CEO of the Nigerians in Diaspora Commission (NiDCOM), among others.

“President Ahmed Tinubu, I need help. Abike Dabiri, I need help,” she implored. “I need urgent international intervention. I need diplomatic support from my embassy as soon as possible before this system swallows me.”

A Call for Justice

As her call for help echoes across borders, it raises pressing questions about the state of justice for immigrants in Germany and whether Christiana’s case is a singular anomaly or part of a broader, systemic issue.
