Nigerian migrants were filled with joy and expressed relief as they arrived home yesterday, Tuesday 5th of December 2017 from Libya, describing the “hell” of harsh conditions in detention camps where they had been held.

African heads of state have condemned the treatment of undocumented migrants in Libya, including widespread violence and apparent slave trading.



The 144 returnees who touched down late Tuesday, and another planeload expected to land shortly after, are part of a repatriation programme that Nigeria has stepped up in recent months.

One man who gave his name as Franklin told AFP that he was “very, very happy” to return.

“It’s good to be home, because I’ve been in hell in the land of Libya. I’ll start a new life in my country,” he said as he waited to be given food.

The UN has urged Libya to agree to shut down 30 centres holding 15,000 migrants, whose detention has become a pressing issue after video footage showing African men sold in Libyan slave auctions sparked global outrage.

“Thank God, thank God, thank God,” said one young man as he stood in an orderly line at the airport to be registered first by immigration officers and then by the National Emergency Management Agency.

Nigerians make up the majority of undocumented migrants trying to make the treacherous crossing via the Mediterranean Sea to Europe.

Their repatriation began nearly a year ago but numbers have increased recently, with nearly 1,300 brought home in November, according to NEMA.

Another returnee, Omoburo, said he had been held in a Libyan detention camp for nearly nine months before he could return home.

“They used us to do all sort of things, to carry bombs, to carry ammunition, even to ‘pack’ dead bodies,” he said as he stood in front of a large poster of Nigeria’s first lady Aisha Buhari extending a warm “welcome” to the group.

It was reported that up to 70% of the Libya returnees are from Edo state

What does the quoted actually mean? Does it mean that those not counted are Nigerians? undecided Or are we to read from this that migrants do, on the whole, have travel documents relevant for travailing thorough the various African nations between where they are from and Libya and perhaps papers overoptimistically prepared for the final trip to Europe ? Or are we to take it that migrants, at least, generally have documents that identify whom they are and what nations they orientate.

If all of the above or some of it is true, how then do they determine the true identity and nationality of those without documents? Are individuals without proof of identity merely asked where they are from and if they declare Nigeria they are accepted as Nigerian? And in the end the figures for those that had no identity and claim Nigeria are totted up and we arrive at the daft and dangerous idea that the "majority of those without documents are Nigerians?"

We must Praise Buhari, for the way he arranged for their return.

They arrived back home in clean cloths like uniforms. It was well packaged. I was proud of the arrangement. Even after they landed, they were documented and would be transported to their various states. I hear say them even broke them small small thing.

Very sad. And as this is happening some Nigerians are still moving there right now. If Nigeria was a peaceful place, this wouldn't be happening. What a shame to Nigeria.
