…as final evacuation flight leaves July 10
By Favour Ulebor, Abuja
The Federal Government has issued a fresh advisory to Nigerians living in South Africa, urging those who feel unsafe to take advantage of the remaining government-sponsored evacuation flights, with the final flight scheduled to arrive in the country on July 10.
The Minister of Foreign Affairs, Ambassador Bianca Odumegwu Ojukwu, gave the advice in a post on her verified X page on Monday while announcing a final call for documentation for Nigerians wishing to return home under the ongoing evacuation exercise.
The minister said Nigeria remains deeply concerned about the safety of its citizens in South Africa following the continued xenophobic protests and attacks on migrants, especially after the deaths of two Nigerians, Musa Yunana Joe and Charles Iroegbu.
