The Federal Government has advised Nigerians especially students not to travel to troubled Northern Cyprus where gross human rights abuses are currently taking place.of the Nigeria Diaspora Commission Hon. Abike Dabiri-Erewa, who gave this advice Thursday while featuring in a press briefing at the State House, Abuja, said over 20 Nigerian students have been killed in the area despite the warnings to the students to stay away from the place.
Dabiri-Erewa said there was little that could be done diplomatically to resolve the situation of Nigerians there because Northern Cyprus is not recognized by the international community as a country. “So, we can’t do much. Our students are being killed on a daily basis, and nothing is happening. So again, I’m going to appeal that we need to take a strong position, about places like Northern Cyprus.”
She also assured that the federal government was doing its part to restore normalcy as even as the Nigerian security forces have recorded gains in the fight against terrorists recently. She urged Nigerian students globally to key into its diaspora data portal identification portal to make it easy for the foreign missions to identify them during emergencies.
Is it true that we have legitimate Government in this country again while the criminals have almost taking control of the country. Something urgent need to be done to stop most criminals activities.
