The first batch of Nigerian evacuees from Poland due to the Russia-Ukraine war arrived the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport, Abuja, today (Friday, March 4, 2022).
Nigerians in Diaspora Commission, NIDCOM boss, Abudu Dabiri- Erewa who disclosed this via Twitter said the evacuees arrived the airport at 7:11 a.m. on Friday via Max Air.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs official, Bolaji Akinremi, had said that the postponement was due to a delay in preparing passengers for the check-in process.
