The Federal Government has warned Nigerians against travelling to Northern Cyprus due to the human rights abuses meted out to Nigerians in the country.
This was made known by the Chairperson of the Nigerians in Diaspora Commission (NIDCOM), Abike Dabiri-Erewa, at the 48th session of the State House ministerial media briefing organized by the presidential communication team at the Presidential Villa on Thursday in Abuja.
Dabiri-Erewa said that Nigerians are subjected to human rights abuses and are being killed in that country.
Dabiri-Erewa pointed out that Northern Cyprus is only recognised by Turkiye, and does not have robust mechanisms that would enable the federal government to pursue justice for several Nigerian students killed there.
She said that people should think twice before going to Northern Cyprus as they can’t do much for Nigerians there. She said Nigerian students are being killed daily. She tasked those that want to go abroad to go, go legally.
