In a video that became popular on social media, a Nigerian resident of the nation made the assertion. "They have come here and picked up those they picked up, leaving the rest of us who are Igbos," the Igbo-speaking individual claimed.
Francisca Omayuli, a spokesperson for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, responded to the claim by saying it was untrue.
Omayuli said that the Nigerian embassy in Khartoum, Sudan's capital, acknowledged that Igbo residents were among the first batch of Nigerians evacuated to Egypt before being airlifted home, and they've since looked into the claim and found it to be inaccurate.
However, the ministry acknowledged that there had previously been a problem with the quantity of buses offered.
The Nigerian Embassy in Khartoum, Sudan, allegedly refused to evacuate Igbo residents in Sudan, according to a video that has been circulating on social media and has attracted the attention of the ministry of foreign affairs. The man in the video is unidentified, and neither his location nor contact information are given.
"The ministry has looked into the claim and is able to reassure Nigerians that it is completely false.
The Igbo evacuees were among the first group of 637 Nigerians to be evacuated to the Aswan Border in Egypt, where they are currently waiting for their ultimate return to Nigeria, according to the Nigerian Embassy in Khartoum.
"“It is, therefore, surprising that such a misleading allegation could be leveled against officials of the embassy who had worked tirelessly on the evacuation exercise.
“To this end, the general public is advised to disregard the allegation..”
