The Nigeria Police Force has repatriated a notorious Chinese fugitive, Mr. Dai Qisheng, to the People’s Republic of China after his arrest in Abuja.
The NPF in a statement issued by its spokesman, DCP Olumuyiwa Adejobi today, announced that the fugitive was repatriated to Beijing on August 15, 2025, under the framework of police-to-police cooperation coordinated by INTERPOL.
Adejobi added that the Inspector-General of Police, Kayode Egbetokun, described the successful arrest and extradition as a strong statement that Nigeria will not serve as a hiding place for international fugitives.
Qisheng, a gang leader wanted in Guizhou Province, China, for orchestrating violent organised crimes, fled his country in 2024 after the Public Security Bureau of Zhijin County issued a warrant for his arrest.
