I am therefore calling on Nigerian government as well as all authorities concerned to do everything within their power and resources to deport our fellows.
It is no longer news that war has ensued between soldiers in Sudan, many countries of the world are trying their best to evacuate their citizens safely. Nigerians more especially students pursuing their studies in Sudan are living in uncertainties as our government is yet to officially address them talk more of deporting them to motherland.
Yesterday, some of the students were able to record videos and uploaded on social media pleading to Nigeria’s government to act as urgent as possible. They stated that the fight was afar before but now gunshots and explosions are close-by on their residences; therefore they are under great threat as anything can happen.
As we all know that fight for power between soldiers make the country a warzone and nobody is safe, also as all sorts of crimes like subjecting people to hard-labour, rape and genocides could occur. Common citizens and foreigners whose governments are negligent suffer the most because they have nothing to offer for them to be taken to safety.
I am therefore calling on Nigerian government as well as all authorities concerned to do everything within their power and resources to deport our fellows. Each Nigerian whether at home or abroad is entitled to be free and protected as promised by our leaders, such should be put to practice upon these men and women before is too late please. May Peace Reign in the Entire World. Amen
