officials said that some of them had been tortured or imprisoned by the
new government in Tripoli before they were evacuated.
 
 
“At
the weekend, 326 stranded Nigerians were evacuated to the country from
Libya through the effort of International Office for Migration (IOM), a United Nations body,” the National Emergency Management Agency (NEMA) said.

Libyan authorities have in the past years expelled thousands of Nigerian illegal immigrants and those with criminal records.
