The National Emergency Management Agency (NEMA) says a total of 1,317 Nigerians have voluntarily returned from Libya in the last 10 days having been stranded in the volatile country enroute Europe. The Director-General of NEMA, Alhaji Mustapha Maihajja, made the disclosure while receiving a fresh batch of 116 Nigerians who arrived the country on Friday morning. The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that the new set of returnees arrived at the Murtala Muhammed International Airport, Lagos aboard a Buraq Airlines with Registration Number 5A-WAC at about 5.39a.m. NAN reports that no fewer than 3,000 Nigerians have voluntarily returned from Libya through the International Organisation for Migration (IOM) supported programme in the last few months. Maihajja, represented by Alhaji Suleiman Yakubu, the South-West Zonal Coordinator, said that the Nigerians returned in various batches between Dec.5 and Dec.15 with the assistance of the IOM and the European Union (EU). According to him, the figure has already surpassed the 1, 295 Nigerians who voluntarily returned from Libya in the month of November. Maihajja said that the Federal Government would continue to work with the international organisations to ensure the return of more Nigerians from Libya where they had been facing severe hardships and rights violations. They comprised 46 adult females, 60 adult males and 10 children and infants respectively. Also, on ground to welcome the returnees were officials of the Nigerian Immigration Service (NIS), National Agency for the Prohibition of Trafficking in Persons (NAPTIP), Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria (FAAN) and Police. http://www.metronaija.com/libya-slavery-1317-nigerians-rescued-10-days/ cc: lalasticlala mynd44 |

Rescued to come back home and face the unconventional slavery in Nigeria.... Poor security of lives and properties... Poor Road network... Poor power supply... Poor waste disposal scheme... Police and military brutality on the citizens... High cost of living... Inflation and recession... Annual yuletide fuel scarcity... Carbon monoxide inhalation from generators... High unemployment rate... etc etc etc |

The returnees all ran to Libya during PDP's 16 years of looting, stealing and corruption. APC has brought them back from slavery. |
