Drivers stops Nigerians stranded in Sudan mid-way in Sahara Desert

The buses assigned to evacuate stranded Nigerian students and others out of Sudan have stopped at the Sahara Desert.

This is because the drivers claimed the Nigerian Government and other relevant stakeholders were yet to pay them.

A video on social media claimed that the evacuees have spent over five hours in the desert.

The video caption said:

The Buses evacuating Nigerian students and non-student were stopped in the middle of the Sahara, and the drivers refused to continue the journey because they were not PAID. @abikedabiri @nemanigeria @FMHDSD @nidcom_gov @NigeriaMFA.”

Also, a female voice could be heard in the video complaining that the drivers insisted they would not leave the desert unless they were paid.

She said:

Before we started this journey, we had to go on several fightings. Can you even imagine, we are stuck in this desert for five hours? We don’t even know the situation we are in. Our money has finished.

“Can you even imagine? The vehicle drivers said they are not moving their buses if they don’t give them money.”

This is coming after Federal Government announced a $1.2 million budget to hire 40 luxurious buses to be used for the evacuation of Nigerians trapped in Sudan.

Minister of Foreign Affairs, Geoffery Onyeama had disclosed this while speaking to State House correspondents after the Federal Executive Council meeting on Wednesday.
