The International Organisation for Migration’ (IOM)
Displacement Tracking Metrix has indicated that at least
62,000 Ghanaians are still trapped in war-ravaged Libya.
This comes after the IOM announced that over 450 Ghanaians
have been rescued from detention centres in Libya since June
2017. »
A report by IOM in February revealed that about 53,200
illegal Ghanaian migrants are still in Libya.
In the report, Ghana is ranked as one of the countries with the
highest number of illegal migrants in the war-torn Northern
African country.
Out of the top 12 countries, Ghana is ranked 5th followed by
Nigeria and Mali. Niger topped the list of countries with
78,723 migrants followed by Egypt, which had a total of
78,616 migrants in Libya.
In an interview with Accra-based Starr FM, the Country
Director for IOM, Sylvia Lopez said the 62,000 Ghanaians still
trapped in Libya are not in detention centers.
She added that the migrants will only be repatriated if they
make that request.
“When it comes to any new returns as a matter fact, it is
purely voluntary, so it is for the migrant to decide to come
back to their countries of origin,” she said.
