A 26 year old Nigerian man, Amanchukwu Chukwuma has been charged for the muder of a 25 year old Singapore woman whose decomposed body was found abandoned in Bukit Panjang two weeks ago.
Her identity was established on Tuesday through forensic DNA matching. She is Miss Liu Shujuan who worked as a casher at a Shop and Save supermarket at Bukit Panjang.
Amanchukwu came to Singapore at the end of 2007 on a “S” pass. It is not known what his previous occupation was. He did not leave Singapore after his pass expired in February 2008 and continued to live in Singapore where he met Miss Liu who became his girlfriend.
According to neighbors, Miss Liu appeared to be passionately in love with her black boyfriend. The couple was often spotted chatting at Bukit Panjang Park till the middle of the night. However the relationship turned sour and ended in August last year.
On 22 December 2009, Amanchukwu arranged to meet up with Miss Liu at Bukit Panjang park. A fight broke out between them and Amanchukwu allegedly beat Miss Liu to her death with his bare fists.
For reasons yet to be revealed, he stripped her down to her panties and abandoned her corpse at the park. Amanchukwu did not leave the country after the murder and remained in Singapore where he was napped at his present girlfriend’s home in Boon Lay.
An international drug syndicate run by Nigerians who preyed on Singapore women to serve as drug mules for them was busted last year in Malaysia.
Since 2005, at least 12 Singaporean women had been jailed in various countries for carrying drugs on behalf of their African boyfriends who vanished almost immediately when they got into trouble.
Like Miss Liu, the 12 women share a similar profile: All hold Singapore passports, had no criminal record, were in their 20s or 30s, single and working in clerical, sales and service jobs.
Due to the ruling party’s liberal immigration policies, large number of foreigners have flocked to Singapore to find work including Africans especially from Nigeria.
While in the past, foreigners are employed only in sectors shunned by Singaporeans, an increasingly number of “S” passes are given for “semi-skilled” workers like Amanchukwu whose jobs can be easily taken up by Singaporeans.
There are no statistics available on crimes committed in Singapore by foreigners including PRs. A few days ago, a 32 year old PRC lady was charged for operating brothels in two HDB estates.
It is not known how they manage to get a permit to work in Singapore in the first place. Singapore’s octogenarian leader MM Lee Kuan Yew said recently that the ruling party is very “stringent” in picking only the “best” foreign “talents” to work and live in Singapore.
Foreigners now make up 36 per cent of Singapore’s population, up from 14 per cent in 1990. Despite rising resentment and anger among Singaporeans at the relentless influx of foreigners, the ruling party is adamant that Singapore needs foreigners to help boost its flagging birth rates.
At the rate the ruling party is mass importing foreigners from elsewhere, Singaporeans may have to put up with newcomers from more “exotic” places like Nigeria and other African countries.
