400 Nigerians Deported from UAE; 103 from Turkey
Recently, four hundred Nigerians, comprising 90 women and 310 men, were deported from the United Arab Emirates (UAE), according to a report by the Nigerian Television Authority (NTA).
Upon their arrival at Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport in Abuja, they were welcomed by a range of Nigerian authorities.
The reception was coordinated by the office of the National Security Adviser, and included representatives from the National Commission for Refugees, Migrants, and Internally Displaced Persons, the National Agency for the Prohibition of Trafficking in Persons (NAPTIP), and the National Emergency Management Agency (NEMA), among other stakeholders.
In addition, the National Emergency Management Agency (NEMA) and other involved parties recently facilitated the return of 103 Nigerians who had been deported from Turkey.
This group arrived at Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport on a Friday evening, specifically at 7:00 pm, through the pilgrims wing of the airport.
Federal Government officials, led by NEMA staff, were on hand to oversee their reception and provide assistance.
On another front, 264 Nigerian travelers faced an unexpected situation when they landed at King Abdulaziz International Airport’s Hajj Terminal in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, on November 13, 2023.
They were informed that their visas had been canceled, leading to significant disruption.
In response to these incidents, the Nigerian Federal Government has urged calm and is working to address the challenges faced by the affected citizens.
Nigerian pastor and overseer of the Citadel Global Community Church, Pastor Tunde Bakare, addresses and reacts to the current happenings of the country regarding the kidnapping and the abductions.
The pastor urges the government on steps they can take to solve and help the people of the country. “The Nigerian government has a clear and urgent duty to protect these Middle Belt communities, who have carried the weight of violence for far too long.”
“Rather than play the ostrich and cover up clear terrorism as mere farmer-herder clashes, the Nigerian state has a responsibility to invade the camps of armed marauders who hide under the cloak of herdsmen of whatever ethnicity, and who invade defenceless communities and gleefully massacre unarmed men, women and children.”
US President Donald Trump criticizes the Nigeria government once again after the increase of insecurity over the past few days. The president stated that the government is failing to protect Christian communities from the attacks going on.
“Nigeria is a disgrace. The whole thing is a disgrace,” Trump said. “They’re killing people by the thousands. It’s a genocide, and I’m really angry about it. And we pay, you know, we give a lot of subsidies to Nigeria. We’re going to end up stopping.”
Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar speaks out against the rising insecurity in the country. He urged the government to take action and claimed that it is not too late to declare a state of emergency.
He reacted after another news of abduction of students was announced on the 21st of November.
“How many more lives must be shattered before decisive action is taken? It is not too late for the government to finally declare a state of emergency on insecurity and confront this menace with the urgency it deserves.”
