1,300 Nigerians who were stuck in Sudan leave

1,300 stranded Nigerians, according to the National Association of Nigerian Students in Sudan, left Khartoum on Sunday.

This was stated in a letter dated Sunday and signed by Amal Pantami, the NANS’s Public Relations Officer.

The message did not specify whether the trapped Nigerians would travel to Port Sudan or Aswan, though.

The letter read, “This is to inform the general public that all the remaining Nigerian students have been evacuated from Khartoum today Sunday 30th April, 2023.

“There were a total of 26 buses and each bus contained about 50 people.

“We continue to ask for everyone’s prayers and we hope all the students are able to reach Nigeria safely.

“We are ever grateful for your continuous support and prayers.”
