COVID-19: Nigerians stranded in Thailand to pay nearly N300,000 'quarantine fees' each

The federal government has directed the Nigerian Mission in Thailand not to evacuate any stranded individual who fails to pay for his accommodation and feeding charges ahead of repatriation.

As stated in the letter, the evacuees are to pay N297,000 for their accommodation and feeding ahead of their arrival in Nigeria. “In this regard, all prospective evacuees are to note the negotiated rate: Accommodation, N15,000 for 16 days ;“Kindly note that the rates were negotiated in Nigeria and the embassy has been directed not to airlift any evacuees who fail to pay the fees.”The government has already evacuated about 253 Nigerians from the United Kingdom and 265 others from Dubai, United Arab Emirates in the past weeks.

The minister of foreign affairs, Geoffrey Onyeama, had said early May that evacuees will be made to cover their bills for services rendered.

Is that how other countries go about their own citizens evacuation?

Now a crime to be a Nigerian abi?
