The Nigerians landed at the airport’s pilgrims’ wing around 6:45 pm on a Southwind Airlines flight, identified as TC-GRB.
Various government agencies, including the National Emergency Management Agency (NEMA), the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC), Department of State Services (DSS), and military personnel, were present to receive them.
The reasons for their deportation remain unclear, and the deportees expressed anger over their treatment in Turkey.
They claimed they were unfairly detained by Turkish authorities for over 11 months before being sent back to Nigeria.
The deportees urged the Nigerian government to intervene on their behalf and help them recover their lost belongings.
KanyiDaily recalls that Ghana’s Financial and Intelligence Agency previously deported 16 Nigerians over their alleged involvement in cybercrimes in the country.
