The Nigerian Federal Government has insisted that the basic criteria for evacuation of Nigerians abroad, is that they must be “COVID-19 free”.

The Federal Government had included this in the “COVID-19 Application Form for Nigerians who want to return home” on the website of the Nigerians in Diaspora Commission which Nigerian citizens abroad must completely fill.

According to the Federal Government, every Nigerian who desires to be evacuated must be tested for Coronavirus and certified negative.

 

Part of the criteria read that “you MUST get tested for the Virus in your country of residence and be issued an Authorised Health Clearance Certificate attesting that you are COVID-19 free. This Certificate MUST be presented and authenticated by officials at the Airport in your country of departure before you are allowed to board the Aircraft”.
