No fewer than 253 Nigerians voluntarily returned from Libya to Nigeria yesterday Tuesday April 25 aboard a chartered Airbus A330-200 with registration mark 5A-LAT operated by Libya Airlines
According to reports, they arrived at about 6:45 pm at the Murtala Muhammed International Airport, Lagos.
Officials
of the Nigerian Immigration Service (NIS), the National Agency for the
Protection of Trafficking in Persons (NAPTIP), National Emergency
Management Agency (NEMA) and the Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria
(FAAN) received 253 Nigerians (102 males, 140 females, 6 children and 5
infants)
They were brought back by the
International Organisation for Migration (IOM) after the Federal
Government asked for its assistance after confirming that some Nigerians
were willing to return home.
Addressing
newsmen at the Hajj Camp wing of the airport where the returnees were
profiled, the Director General of NEMA, Engr Mustapha Maihaja,
represented by the Deputy Director, Search and Rescue, Dr. Abdullahi
Onimode, said the deportees would be given some token to go back to
their respective destinations.
'We are giving
them some stipends. We need to let them realize that the country they
left some years ago is not the same country they are meeting today. We
have moved ahead and everybody now has equal opportunity to be the best
you can be,' he said
He also advised those
leaving the country in search of greener pastures to have a rethink and
stay in the country to develop it.
Speaking to
Vanguard, one of the returnees identified as Mary said that it was a
miracle she returned safely back to Nigeria as she was being sold like a
piece of merchandise in Libya.
According to
her, 'They were selling some of us like wood from one guard who will
take us to some destination and again sell us to another who will now be
our new owner. That will take us again to some distance and say his
contract with us has expired and again sell us to another person.'
She
added that 'if you complain, they will ask you if you don’t want to go
to Europe again. My brother, e no easy', she laughed.

Arabs are too wicked ghan
They rape black African women with ease in lybia if not she is shot dead instantly
They should check them for hiv and stds cos lybia is a country of no moral.free sex is widely practised there.
All these females most have slept with hundreds of lybia men.and this men don't use condom on them.life of a prostitute! All in a bid to cross to Europe
Yes they are sold from one buyer to another.this buyer brings in men to sleep with the women in turn he gets paid. For example 10 girls would be told to lie down and spread their legs while 1 arabo guy sleeps in turn with the whole 10 girls at the same time.quite horrible
The majority of the girls are edo.Benin girls sometimes delta girls follow for the prostitution work.in Italy whites now speak Benin language
