Eight hundred and thirty-six Nigerians fleeing war-torn Sudan arrived on Sunday in Abuja, the nation’s capital.
They were airlifted via Max Air, Azman and Tarco Airlines.
Max Air and Azman Air landed with 410 and 324 evacuees respectively with stranded Nigerians from Aswan, Egypt
Tarco airlifted 102 Nigerians from Port Sudan.
The crisis in Sudan had trapped citizens of many countries including Nigerians since over two weeks of brutal fighting between the Sudanese army and the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) turned Khartoum, the epicentre of the violence, into a warzone and thrown the country into turmoil.
