Me I don't understand those people

Why? Isn't Nigeria doing better than the UK on this? Look at the fatalities in number, for instance. I think we're better at dealing with the pandemic.

I can't wait to go home. I'm a Briton living abroad 😁😁

They want to evacuate their citizens that stays/work in Nigeria

if your government truly cares for her citizens they should have evacuate them free of charge

I think they have more case than Nigeria••• please UK government dnt let it Saturday na why not now now••••

They should do and go biko

they have said this like a 100 times, can they evacuate them already smh

Even dem dey will not like to come back home

They got life. But Nigeria evacuating citizens is ........ Fill in the gap

Better

You mean to bring them back home?😂😂😂😂 We will gladly receive them

2obbysexy Follow me I follow you back immediately

Mtchw

What are you people still doing here?

I don’t understand is there a war in Nigeria? Or is there something the government is not telling us but anyways whatever it is this westerners are planing my God will surely put them to shame.

But Nigerians have to pay to be evacuated by their government. So much for integrity.

_Adadioramma From frypan to fire.

It's a two way thing. Our government wants to evacuate Nigerians who want to return back to Nigeria while the UK would be evacuating theirs. May God help us oo

I wonder how much the UK citizens have to pay to get evacuated. Clear thinking, good governance for the people! I hope Baba will drop the weed smoking anti-people advisers proposing Nigerians had to pay before being evacuated back home!

They should be fast about it so we will know we that remain .

Nigerian govt is reportedly charging 160k to evacuate Nigerians

Why

Which country I want claim now self...

Come and take me join o, God punish our government nigeriagovernment govokowa

What is it that our Government is not telling us? Is it that foreigners are scared of Nigerians not adhering to the rules which may lead to bigger issues or the case of hunger strike happening leading to unrest..... hummm

UK didn't ask their citizens to pay some money before they get on that plane did they? 🤔

I still maintain.... there is more to this than meet the eyes. Our leaders should tell is what is happening. Why are these countries behaving as if our cases are the worst. Have they seen our future

Me: checking if the airplane is on it way, we going back to UK.

Sumtn is not right somewie let us be vigilant ooo

Also give them all thier taxses they hv spend

Because of fake believe that it will hit us hard

Go, let's know how many of us remain

They should leave oh

It is good sef, let dem go o!!! Make dem no go mistakenly share our 20k give dem. Money wey no do us.

Come and pack them abeg so we can have space

_Adadioramma Omo this one hard o,

They want to push Coronavirus to Africa and they will lock the Continent.

Nigeria is safer for them.i guess

Imagine as if there place is safe but ma getting scared o hope is not that Nigeria just start film sha abeg o

Hissss

Sooner,you all Europeans and others will rush down to Africa.

Hunnnnnnn.

Please take them oh

Na wao

Going from frying pan into fire!

No stay here make thunder fire ⚡️⛈all of you

E don happen we don tell dem, motor don jam dem, e don happen! UKinNigeria what happened to the territorial integrity of the zoo you called nigeria 🇳🇬 Foooooools!

They better stay in Nigeria

Why do I feel like these people have seen danger ahead... Nig seem to be safer for now compared to the US and UK, yet, they are picking up those citizens. God help us!

They should do it fast. This country called Nigeria is hopeless with the present administration. Imagine when a whole Police commissioner refers to killings and disturbances around Lagos by hoodlums as 'mere case of apprehension'. Sleepless nights upon hunger is 'a mere case'.

Who did Nigerians really offend na😭😭💔

Return to homeland

mobilePunch Please tell them am their citizen UKinNigeria Don't leave me behind

It can't be real

There is something i seems not to understand oooooo,

Better!
