This is happening after Germany, Israel, and France evacuated their nationals following the rising cases of coronavirus disease in the country.
The Embassy confirmed the development Monday night on its official Twitter handle, @US Mission Nigeria.The mission asked Americans booked for the flight not to come to the airport until they had been contacted by officials. The Twitter post read, “The US Consulate in Lagos has confirmed multiple emergency flights for this week departing from Lagos and Abuja. Please do not come to the airport until we have contacted you directly. Please shelter in place and await further information.”
Meanwhile, US President Donald Trump has extended federal guidelines on social distancing until April 30 after a top health official warned that between 100,000 to 200,000 people could die from coronavirus in the United States.Worldwide, the total number of infections recorded since the beginning of the outbreak reached more than 770,000. Some 160,000 people have recovered globally while nearly 37,000 have died.
Grandad_OG This isn't Makin any sense already 🇺🇸 is leading with new cases so they r bringing them to get infected
Let them go, we don't need them.
Allah raka taki Gonna!
I wish dey could evacuate me and join?
Hmmm....this covid19 thing is getting out of hands. godhelpus
Any Nigeria who has lost background of home we can help u get back as fact with process. Devia koncepts ltd
Recently, I heard they want to recruit medical professionals in Nigeria and now, they want to pack there citizens. I hope this people are not packing Nigeria Doctors to there country to assist with there forever increasing Covid-19 cases and death
Goodbye 👋
Nigeria is a target of something worse I guess. The world is not saying it.
Something isn't adding up
This is serious ooooo
Biko onye obula naa be fa kanyi malu kanyi ra. Ndi apali !
Bye bye Felicia✋✋
The world is closed. Evacuation from where to where,huh?
How many foreigners were evacuated from Nigeria during the Ebola saga? Compare life and lifeless!
Useless move They're struggling at home
Citizens from Nigeria, or they are extracting our doctors
The US government has a special reason for doing that just stay put
I don't understand. Evacuate,asin how Leave? Or Entering
Country with over 150,000 cases importing her citizens from a country with 200 cases? There's definitely something we don't know. Aa ni itiju kobo ni'lu yii. O ma se o!
God pass them
All is well Naija we will come out stronger
I'm sure most of their citizens in Nigeria would refuse to go, given the high number of deaths and infected in US for now. Staying at home and observing preventive measures when u go out for supplies should be enuf. Thank God the rains are yet to come
RadioPaparazi They are crazy, after bring the viruse to Nigeria successful, now they are taking their citizens out. God punish Satan.
DaVinch_leon Check this out
RadioPaparazi What is going on ? Nigeria is safer than America for now is there something they know we don't ?
But some of it's citizens just arrived cross river,,wit out screening....
Make Una no forget me ooo My papa make small mistake 😂 😂 😂
Nigeria is even safer than America going by fatality records in the two countries. Average Nigerian is not interested in going to America now.
No ....it can't be ....y evacuating
Jumping from frying pan to fare
After injecting them with the Corona virus no way
The official numbers are worse in America but they rather remove their people from here because we are a shit hole country.
Before hungry go kill their citizens for this lockdown...
Is there actually any safer place right now?.. 🤔. other than the safety arms of the Almighty God!!
They should go to hell.
Something is coming please pple stay safe every state is evacuating their citizens from Nigeria. Think about it why would they want to evacuate their citizens from Nigeria. Our politicians are not given us all the details
If Nigeria is a sensible nation. They should and must not come back.
From frying pan to fire. Nigeria is still better off
nice move this is not a safe place.. Hell fire
I can't let them take my girlfriend.
From fry pan to fire
When does China will begin evacuation of citizens from Nigeria?
God no go shame us!🙏
Forget about the US, they are mockery their self not Nigeria, God over every things.
Looks like the western world are all envisaging critical times ahead for Nija with respect to this COVID19 pandemic. Thus I think it should be a wake up call for Nigeria to increase its effort in managing the situation. We die here! God dey sha
They should go o. We have limited test facilities which is meant for only politicians
Lord we know our leaders have failed us but just have mercy upon us and let us come out strong from this pandemic. Help us O Lord
How many times do they evacuate their citizens sef? Are they that many here? Abi punch never get enuf public outcry about us evacuating their citizens?
God is not a man and God pass them. Grace is all that matters.
Fake news, iam a U.S citizens and am still in Nigeria 🇳🇬
May be they are trying to avert international insurance cost ...There will be a levelling effect . Let's keep safe let's do the needful and follow the COVID-19 do and dont ...We shall not be put to shame. God is proving His Supremacy over all....this too will pass. STAY home&safe
Tell the devils who produced civid19 save journey, God is our protector!
May the Lord intervene
I think the US already know what is about to hit nigeria. Imagine, 131 people tested positive in a 3rd world country with little or no access to good heath care system. Brace up for impact Nigerians
Better
Did you see how government cares for their citizens ,how many Nigeria citizens did they evacuate from abroad is obvious no body is a Nigerian
Wonderful country. Can Nigeria evacuate our people from Ghana. Can they really identify us. Anyways, why take your citizens from a country where the viral impact is low to a place at 50 die daily? Coronavirustruth COVIDIOTS Melekweanthony
Most Nigerians are just too naive to see the big picture. Time will tell.
God help us, it shall come to pass
God bless you all ... bye bye..our case is far better.....
Our Government have seen it, when we advised them to take the right step at the right time, they refused... Now they imported foreign disease, Foreigners are now living us.. It's well God dey.
When will Nigeria begin evacuation of Nigerians in Italy and Spain. Air peace abeg ooo now. Let’s do this😭
'Cause they know how careless Nigeria leaders are.
They know that the government will not take care of people under lockdown. Let's pray the lockdown won't kill more than COVIDー19 .
RadioPaparazi When will Nigeria Govt Evacuate Nigerians from the UK and the US? We are waiting. Irresponsible government.
Evacuation to covid 19 free USA? or because we have no adequate facilities here? The best solution is to collectively find a solution to this calamity please .
Tf!
frying pan to fire
Finally, I’m leaving lol
Evacuate is not the solution after all US have more corona cases than Nigeria
lolo1ofELSS
There is something fishy in this move
It is there people that ask there govt to take them home. And the govt respond
Like we care make them koshi danu
Ai tete mole, ole n m'oloko
Let them go, as God liveth, they will all be put to shame whatever the forecast on Nigeria. The virus will soon die down. Let us all StayAtHome. follow all instructions to stay safe. we will come out victorious through Christ Jesus.
Lets not decieve ourselves here. The US numbers are this high because they are testing. When we get serious with testing, then we can talk about the Data
That’s not fair to me , now the Politicians children’s and wife’s will have the way to run from the country , why Nigerians are left behind to face bad hospital, no food and bad governance that their FATHERS are responsible for . .. RevolutionNow BuhariResign
Its a stupid decision, Nigeria offered more protection than their country of origin, but they are against two weeks of lockdown in Nigeria, simple as that.
Una commot them for semi safe zone go Frontline issorite ,safe trip😌😌😌😌
They're gradually style abandoning African.
Rock of ages🏃🏃🏃
What if it turns out to not be as bad as they've projected it to be for Nigerians... just looking at it from the brighter side..
Bye bye to rede rede! Are they doing any better? Odabò!
A zoo met for animals
They are not better of in their own country!
They're not use to Antimalaria medicines, so take them away from frying pan to fire.
Shit is getting shitty as each day passes by
Better.
It is pretty obvious by now that they are unhappy with the less cases in Africa and Nigeria in particular...so they need to send back our citizens who will be exposed and bring more cases of the pandemic back home. What evil, O God! Only you can save us.😢🙆
Your citizens might be better off here...
When is Britain coming for her people?
Seems like the US govt knows something hidden and not revealed to us
NCDCgov do the needful pls
Are they planning to infect us more because I thought Niger is safer than US for now
Why are countries evacuating their citizens? Israel did and now US But we had less incidence of COVID-19
Are de seeing what we r not seeing?
Am seeking things that dis government isn't seeing
Nigeria is directly proportional to hell fire. Who will leave haven enter 🇳🇬
I see NCDC numbers increasing drastically... just hope NCDC is capable of controlling what's coming
Hmmmm
They will come back to us for help on this pandemic
Make them do give us space, God no go leave us. A country with over 100thousand cases dey evacuate,seem like fry pan to fire for those who choose to follow them.
If they think we can't fight it and their country is safer then they'll be disappointed cos Nigeria Will tackle it soon with lesser loss of lives
Don't leave me behind guys..😭😭
They know wat they are doing,. Befor theur people wil die here
God's mercy is always with us, who ever want to leave should leave fast. We have hope Nigeria situation will not be like what it is in the Western world. God's protection over us and those that are already infected will recover in Jesus name. Insha Allah.. Amen
they must not come back
And they should never return here again!!!
lockerbian Country wey sabi
Hope US still remember they are having 158,400 as against Nigeria with 131 cases
Then I volunteer to be part of the US citizenry, among saner humanoids... Good leadership is priceless.
To New York City?
If they like they should return
Recently Israel evacuated citizens from Nigeria with lesser cases, same tin by U.S. now. We should be more careful. something is fishy. Make our President nor sleep on dz Corona issue o abeg. SaveOurSouls
Plz..take note..after d loading..check d plane very well..some of our politicians might join!..they go no where..we die here
That's good!
Now we should be worried, pray for Nigeria.
Sure 😔 Carry them from a less infested country to a more infested one 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿 Nice move America, nice move 🤦🏿♂️
Taking them to now the head quarters of covid 19
What this implies is , it's better to die in their Homeland than in another man's land .
It is better now than later, before they completely destroy us
They can come pick them
Please 🙏 we hear you ohhhh💯 Govt is doing giveaway tweet about it Via Bank account details
I don't mind going with them o, even if na cargo compartment
RIP
As dem wan pack dia pipo, ok na wu dem help na......I begi
These people don't have faith in our system at all.
This is absurd and lesson to our political leaders.... They are trying to tell us different between white and black.....
From their permutations, these guys have envisaged a catastrophic COVID-19 forecast for Nigeria & Africa, and is making hay whilst the sun shines. If God & our climate doesn't come to our aid, we're in for a devastation worse than China & Italy. Our health sector can't bear.
Odaa bo
Good job ..can’t trust Nigeria never
They should make sure they don't come back after ohh.
Is america better of, with almost 3000 deaths
Finally, my people are here to evacuate US
Abeg, make them no return oo
The US know how clueless our govt are and they cannot risk the lives of their citizens at the expense of Nigeria.
Israel did it we no hear noise, why una dey advertise US own abi na crime? They love their citizens unlike una
It is easier to contract it in the US than in Nigeria. Mumu people
America citizens bye bye bye
God please help us
Of course they should
Of course
They must never return
Ok bye
Now we should be officially worried.
Lobatan!!!!
No problem, we shall overcome to their shame.
Nigeria just can't be trusted for anything.... Our politicians have painted us black
They know we are careless and data less to really trace and control shit like this so it's better to save their people now before shit gets real over here . It just got real !!
When our weather is the best for them to be safe with... Ok
Good for them
Don't send them to us here o
👍🏽👍🏽👏
When will Nigeria evacuate her citizens stranded in high risk countries? We are also humans after all!
Only God can help us
OK na, they wan leave us because them know wetin go sup in few weeks. Oh help us lord
