The Federal Government has warned Nigerians stranded in Sudan to avoid embarking on any journey to borders in order to avoid any danger.
A statement was issued, which was jointly signed by the Director in charge of the Office of the Permanent Secretary at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Permanent Secretary at the Ministry of Humanitarian Affairs, Disaster Management, and Social Development, Nasir Sani-Gwarzo. The statement urged individuals involved in the evacuation process to maintain continuous communication with government officials on the ground.
The statement elucidated that the alarm was coming after it was learnt that some students were trying to find their way to contiguous borders of either Egypt, Eritrea, Ethiopia or Chad on their own.
