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.
It was reported that bandits were seen in Kwara State and abducted six residents from Rukpete Village.
The incident was reported to have occurred on June 8 at about 11 p.m.
Sources revealed that seven people were initially taken, but an elderly man was later released, leaving six victims in captivity.
The rising cases of insecurity in the country remain quite alarming.
The state of the country is affecting many people, as they believe nowhere is safe, including schools where they keep their children.
It has been reported that some parents have started withdrawing their children from schools in Abuja.
It can be noted that rumours of bandits being sighted near a school triggered panic, causing parents to hurriedly remove their children for safety.
While the reports of bandits have not been confirmed, the school has also issued safety measures to ensure the protection of students within the premises.
It has been rumored that bandits have made their way to Lagos, and allegedly they were spotted in Ibeju-Lekki, where some residents became suspicious of them and reported the matter.
A clip of the group of men went viral online, and many people became concerned. Whether true or not, fear has been sparked among Lagosians as they worry that bandits may already be in the state. Even if the reports remain unconfirmed, many believe it is still a possibility worth paying attention to.
