Recall that in April, the Federal government announced plans to repatriate Nigerians abroad who have asked to be brought back home due to the pandemic.

Part of the conditions for the repatriation was that they must subject themselves to COVID-19 tests in their countries of residence, pay for their flight ticket back home and must be Isolated for 14 days upon their arrival to Nigeria.
