On-air-personality and television host, Rufai Oseni has reacted to the issues that have surrounded the evacuation of Nigerians from crisis-torn Sudan.

This comes after news emerged that the federal government was yet to complete the payment to the transport companies conveying Nigerian students from Sudan to Egypt.

Speaking on Whats Trending segment on Arise Television on Friday, April 28, he said:" Evacuation is not supposed to be a big deal but because of the lack of trust and public distrust the public has, they have the right to question that 1.2 million dollars. You see like I was a prophet, I knew something like this was going to happen. You see, I don't know why Nigeria matter will always have K-leg."

"The leg is not always straight. This wasn't a big deal, it was only an evacuation. If you have contacted the transport company for the 40 buses, you have been able to negotiate with them."

Reacting to a viral video of the evacuated students reportedly stranded in a desert.
Dabiri-Erewa told the press that the evacuation process was a tedious one and that challenges were expected.

She said the government was in touch with the students, noting that relevant agencies would resolve the situation in no time.

“I’m seeing reports on Twitter — don’t believe everything on social media – -but I’m seeing reports that they’re stranded somewhere because the bus driver is demanding for some kind of full payment but whatever is happening will be resolved by NEMA and between the Nigerian mission in Sudan and Ethiopia,” the NiDCOM chair said.
