A total of hundred and thirty-five (135) Nigerians evacuated from war-torn Sudan have arrived in the country.

The evacuated Nigerians arrived at the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport in Abuja on Thursday.

This was disclosed in a short statement issued by the Nigerians in Diaspora Commission (NIDCOM) on its official handle.

NIDCOM said that the 135 Nigerians made up the 12th batch of evacuees, bringing to a total of 2,119 evacuees that arrived in the country.

The statement read, “The 12th batch of Evacuees: 135 Nationals that departed Port Sudan International Airport, landed at Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport around 5:10 am local time on May 11 via Tarco Air.”

In other news, Kanyi Daily reported that a crossdresser was among 33 suspected internet fraudsters, also known as “Yahoo Boys” arrested by operatives of the Lagos Zonal Command of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).

The crossdresser, Owoseni Gabriel, posed as a woman to evade arrest.

They were nabbed by the anti-graft agency for their alleged involvement in computer-related fraud.
