Abuja \u2013 The Ministry of Foreign Affairs says it has only invited home for consultations the country\u2019s\u00a0 High Commissioner to Kenya, Amb. Chijioke Wigwe.<\/p>\n

Wigwe had been under fire lately after being accused of wife battery.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe was not recalled, but invited home on consultations following allegations of wife battery,\u2019\u2019 the ministry\u2019s Permanent Secretary, Dr Martin Uhoimoibhi, said.<\/p>\n

He said\u00a0 that the matter was under investigation and that appropriate action would be taken on the basis of the outcome of the consultations.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere is a difference between an invitation and a recall. He has not been recalled, he is still the ambassador to Kenya,\u2019\u2019 the Permanent Secretary said<\/p>\n

He said officials in the Foreign Affairs ministry were already meeting on the issue in line with the ministry\u2019s stipulated due process.<\/p>\n

Uhoimoibhi also said the envoy\u2019s diplomatic waiver had not been withdrawn, insisting that no decision had yet been taken by the ministry.<\/p>\n

The\u00a0 news and pictures relating to the alleged wife battery were published in a local newspaper in Kenya last week, while the envoy and his son Nelson had also granted interviews.<\/p>\n

The interviews granted by Uhoimoibhi and his son followed the earlier one granted by his wife, Mrs Tessy Wigwe.<\/p>\n

Wigwe who was posted to Kenya in 2008 is also Nigeria\u2019s Permanent Representative to the United Nations Environment Programme, and was also accredited to the Republic of Seychelles, and Oversees Somalia.(NAN)<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
