“A number of countries have signified intention to repatriate Nigerians convicted and pardoned and paroled in those countries.  They include the UAE, Egypt and the United States of America.

Coming in the midst of our National Response to COVID 19, all relevant Agencies of government are taking multi-sectoral steps to ensure that the process remains within acceptable international protocols and in line with bilateral agreements.

For the purpose of clarity, this should be distinguished from normal evacuation flights and we wish to state that all evacuation flights will end on 22nd August 2020 after which Airports will be given sufficient time to prepare for reopening.” he said.
