Another 171 Nigerians deported from Libya

Another batch of 171 Nigerians was yesterday deported barely a week after 162 Nigerians were brought back by the Federal Government from Libya.

According to TheNewsGuru, they were brought into the country through the Murtala Mohammed International Airport, MMIA, Lagos.

They landed at the cargo section of the airport at about 4p.m.

Breakdown of persons flown back include 109 female adults, two female children and one infant. Males were 49 adults, five children and five infants.

The Libyan returnees were brought back courtesy of the FG and the International Organization for Migration, IOM.

The Federal Government, however, assured that the evacuation programme from Libya, being the seventh in about 14 months, will not continue endlessly, but would soon be wrapped up.
