The Ministry of Foreign Affairs has directed all its missions abroad to compile lists of willing nationals who wanted to come back home, it was learnt.

Chairman, Nigerians in Diaspora Commission, Abike Dabiri-Erewa, disclosed that this was a sequel to requests by Nigerians stranded abroad in the wake of the coronavirus pandemic. She, however, said that the MFA had instructed that “the financial implications will be borne by the prospective evacuees, who will be compulsorily quarantined when they returned”.According to a statement on Friday by the Head, Media and Public Relations Unit, NIDCOM, Abdur-Rahman Balogun, interested citizens should inform the embassy in their country of residence about their intention to return to Nigeria.

It said, “The interested Nigerians are advised to inform the missions in the various countries they are in, which will then collate and coordinate with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. “To this end, Hon. Abike Dabiri-Erewa urged Nigerians stranded abroad willing to return home to key into this Federal Government gesture by providing information to the mission in their respective host countries.”

We can sabi show ourselves..because other countries are evacuating their citizens we want to follow suit. When we haven't even cleared the mess steaming up already

This fuelless generator is a new source of power that is completely safe, free and efficient, the durability and design is Top notch. This generator, unlike every other generator doesn't have an engine which consumes fuel/gas and makes noise.

What if they are coming home with positive COVID 19? Do we have the necessary logistics to accommodate them? If yes, it's commendable...

Failed leaders I know you guys are just saying it because even if this whole thing last four years this present govt can't do it

This is how government respond to her people, let's us all wake up together. Now I beseech those directing the affairs of the country to start creating jobs jobs jobs as this is best thing to do.

Is this a joke? Come back to do what?

TheShehus Come home to do what? This must really be a joke aunty abike.

abikedabiri NigeriaGov Hope we are not going to import COVID 19 by this action. Are there facilities for isolation? Will they cooperate on arrival? Be prepared!

What are the coming back to do, since we do not have the right equipments to handle this virus.

Who in there right mind would risk their life coming to Nigeria? The deceitfulness is becoming so obvious.

How many Nigerians who are based in Europe have been reported to be infected with covid-19, how can a country without a good hospital or even stable power supply would even be thinking of evacuating her citizens from advance country lazy bunch of bad leaders.

Do we have facilities to isolate the numbers that would be willing to return to Nigeria?

Only an idiot abroad will subscribe to Nigeria govt plan abroad, when I say abroad I'm not referring to those in Libya, Iraq or Yemen

Evacuate them and increase the surge. That’s good o.

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤡🤡🤡🤡

Is it from Libya ?

You want to create more problems

Why can't they just let them be where they are and recieve treatment there.... This is an impending crisis waiting to happen

We don't have testing equipments, isolation centers, man power to track or trace suspected cases. Yet you guys are talking about bringing in new cases. If covid19 started from Nigeria, will they be talking bout coming back?

And NGR should copy US by asking the returnees to pay the full cost of the flight

Nigeria and favoritism again. The Nigerians namely Abba Kyari, Bauchi state Governor and other senior citizens. The common man left to die COVIDー19

We are still battling with the virus here, yet you want to import more cases; the cases we have now are due to the refusal of the FG to act fast by shutting our borders. We don't want more imported cases.

Come home to what exactly? I laugh in Spanish. Anyways, those is Sudan and DRC might wanna come home sha

Come back to what exactly?

NGRPresident Should Please position DefenceInfoNG on stand by to transport all expected returnees to isolation centres upon Arrival.Else, NigeriaGov Looses efficacy of the 14 days lockdown aimed at containing community Spread.FG should Be Guided by contact tracing challenges..

U pple will not leave Dem dia now after we will be searching for 6700 contacts

Because they will be isolated and be the first set of people to get the vaccine being suggested by the 2 French doctors that African is a testing ground .. Our leaders still negotiating money nii

Are they willing to come? You still want to add to the number of cases we have here. Me thAt am waiting and praying for this to end cos my salary depends on if it ends on time and you want to still add to people's problem. It shall not be well with you people

Please, let them stay wherever they are oooo

Why did the Ministry earlier make claims that they do not have intentions bring back Nigerians aboard

Come and die finally Abi?

To import more corona abi?

Ahah haha those people there are more than we here ooo... Dey no go like to come sef😂😂😂

I beg make una prepare for the Nigerians Abike Dabiri wan bring well, well otherwise we don finish. Corona go cause havoc oh!

Evacuate them to where? Nigeria? Lemme see the senseless Nigerian that will skip proper treatment and attention and return to where they will tie him in one uncompleted building and be throwing fufu from the window once a day for him till even malaria finish you before corobby...

Madam keep quiet abeg

We have not solve our domestic problem? You want to bring foreigners

By this time of the day😂😂😂💪

Which country so dat we go know how we go receive dem

They want to bring back their children to Nigeria at any cost. So be it. Remember that, there is no European country that will accept you for medical issues.

Good thing to do, but first build an isolation centre at the airport and keep them there for 14 days. We never chew the ones wey dey our mouth finish.

Dangerous game menh!

And add them to this current wahala? This egungun has lost it finally

Ok, oya na

Time to chop!

Evacuate to where you guys want to import more virus to the country hmmmmm

Coming back to Nigeria where you're guaranteed 24 hours electricity, security, job and health insurance. It's better they remain there until this is over because coming back here is more deadlier than the Covid-19.

Biko let them stay dere abeg, don't let d infection multiply oo. No b dis diasporal people MAKE EVERYTHING WORST FOR naija....

So u think they are all MUMU they will come back to d useless nation now...

Make we no do pass ourself. Ejor.

If we can isolate them no wahala

supabara Abeg which side of abroad ? 🤣🤣

Y'all just open mouth and say anything that comes to your mind without thinking deep about it, Nawa o.

For what? Abeg leave them ooo!! It's easier for person to die and go to heaven from their than that hell!! You emulate selfishly.

You never chop one finish, you still dey order another. FG leave them oooooo.

Do you know how many Nigerians we have abroad?

Egungun wants to enter express because he saw others evacuating their nationals. For the records they have better facilities to manage higher numbers. Bringing people from high risk countries with lesser medical facilities down home will amount to endangering people's lives

Una beta leave dem for Dia oooo, Na d ones wey cum carry d CORO enter ninja... Moreover who send dem go abroad.

To keep them where?. You want to bring them back to affect more people with COVID19. Please you guys should thing of something good that will end the spread of COVID19 so that people will come out of they house.

They are obviously doing this because one of their own is currently stranded outside.

Where would FG keep them for quarantine for 14days?
