Abike Dabiri React To Viral Video Of Stranded Nigerians Thrown In A Desert In Dubai

The chairman, Nigerians in Diaspora Commission (NIDCOM), Abike Dabiri-Erewa has reacted to a viral video of stranded Nigerian immigrants in Dubai who were allegedly chased into the desert.

Naija News reported that a video of some stranded Nigerians dumped and neglected inside a desert by the government of United Arab Emirates has surfaced online.

Speaking about the viral video via  her Twitter page, Abike Dabiri-Erewa clarified that the allegation was wrong as the UAE had on different occasions arranged for the immigrants to return to Nigeria, but some have refused to take the opportunity.

That video was five days ago
