Nigerian migrants arrive home through charter flights facilitated by the International Organization for Migration (IOM), with support from the European Union, the Government of the Netherlands, ECOWAS, and other partners, as part of initiatives like COMPASS and the Migrant Protection and Reintegration Programme. Such initiatives provide safe and dignified return options to Nigerians from countless countries such as Libya, Mali, Niger, and Burkina Faso. This operation is part of IOM's comprehensive efforts to support migrants who find themselves in vulnerable situations. These activities are conducted in close coordination with Nigerian Government authorities and officials, including from the National Commission for Refugees, Migrants, and Internally Displaced Persons (NCFRMI), the National Agency for the Prohibition of Trafficking in Persons (NAPTIP), the National Emergency Management Agency (NEMA), and more. They highlight IOM's commitment to protecting the rights of migrants and promoting safer and more regulated migration pathways in collaboration with our valued donors and stakeholders.
