Evacuate Nigerians Trapped In Sudan With “Deserving Proactiveness And Commitment,” Peter Obi Tells FG

The Presidential candidate of the Labour Party (LP), Mr. Peter Obi, has urged the federal government to expedite action and begin the evacuation of Nigerians trapped in the ongoing turmoil in Sudan with “deserving proactiveness and commitment.”

Stating that “the life of every Nigerian is sacred and important,” Obi said in a statement he personally signed that no Nigerian should be killed in the fighting between the Sudanese military and the Rapid Special Forces (RSF) paramilitary group.

The full statement reads: “I’m sad and concerned by the reports that Nigerians trapped in Sudan have not been evacuated.

“While we appreciate the extreme challenges in Sudan, we deeply implore the Federal Government of Nigeria to expedite all efforts to rescue about 4000 Nigerians that are mostly students in Sudan to safety.

“Moreover, as the Sudanese crisis in not a natural disaster that happened suddenly, it will be sad to lose any Nigerian to the conflict, especially now that we need all hands to create and sustain a New Nigeria.

“Since it is the statutory responsibility of FGN to protect Nigerians at home in Nigeria and abroad, it is important that we attend to such issues with more deserving proactiveness and commitment as the life of every Nigerian is sacred and important. A New Nigeria is really imperative and Possible -PO.”
