Stranded Nigerians in Central Africa Republic CAR have finally arrived at the Nigerian Embassy in Bangui.
It will be recalled that through a viral video, some Nigerian miners called for help and there was immediate intervention by officials of the Nigerian Embassy and CAR security who accompanied them from their location to the capital.
The journey to Bangui took a number of days with the Nigerians , victims of a Chinese National and a Nigerian agent who hired them for work in that country and abandoned them there without paying their renumeration for 11 months,
obviously traumatised, weak and distressed, they had called for help to be rescued.
They are now in the safe hands of officials of the Nigerian Embassy who will arrange their return back home.
They expressed gratitude to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu , the Ministers of Foreign Affairs and staff of both countries , the Nigerian Embassy, the CAR Security agencies and Nigerians who shared their stories.
The agent who lured them into the job scam, is currently based in Nigeria and has been identified and is expected to be prosecuted.
