Abike Dabiri speaks after drivers evacuating Nigerian students from Sudan refused to continue their journey over non-payment

Chairman of the Nigerians in Diaspora Commission (NiDCOM), Hon Abike Dabiri-Erewa has said buses conveying Nigerians from conflict-ridden Sudan have continued their journey after drivers stopped over non-payment for their service.

She said this on Thursday, April 27, after Nigerian students in Sudan cried out on Twitter that they were stranded in the desert for over 5 hours because their drivers have refused to continue the journey if they don’t receive payment.

Reacting, the NiDCOM boss said she contacted the Director-General of the National Emergency Management Agency (NEMA) and the matter has been resolved.

“I have just spoken to @nemanigeriadg. He confirmed the buses have continued their Journey and said whatever issues have been resolved,” Dabiri-Erewa wrote.
