Ukraine war: Detention of Nigerians in Poland ‘unacceptable’… NiDCOM 

April 8, 2022

By INfactNG

The Chairman, Nigerians in Diaspora Commission, NiDCOM, Abike Dabiri-Erewa has frowned at the detention of fleeing Nigerians from Ukraine war in Polish detention centres, describing the act as ‘unacceptable’.


She also stressed that the Nationals in Poland be sent back to Nigeria. 


The NiDCOM boss stated this at the Psycho-social Trauma Clinic for Ukraine returnees organized in partnership with National Commission for Refugees, Migrants and Internally Displaced Persons (NCFRMI) and Project Victory Call Initiative (PVC) in Abuja.


The NiDCOM boss said that the two day clinic was the preliminary as it will be a continuous exercise in the six geo political zones. NiDCOM has also partnered with The Sunshine Series by creating a 24 hours helpline (#112) for returnees who need counseling.


According to Federal-Commissioner, Refugees Commission, Mrs. Imaan Sulaiman-Ibrahim:

“We tend to ignore our mental health but mental health is key. As Nigerians we have a lot of resilience we have that ability, but not everybody has the same threshold when it comes to resilience and hence the need for this particular platform so that those that need extra support or extra care and assistance, can be able to access it”.   
Mrs. Sulaiman-Ibrahim stated that the NCFRMI is the focal organ for government for rehabilitation, resettlement and integration. She went further to explain that NCFRMI has offices in about 14 locations. And are ready to make their offices available to ensure that collaboration with the Project Victory Call Initiative (PVC) team and academic experts make this counseling easily accessible for the returnees.


Dr. Bolaji Akinyemi, Convener Project Victory Call Initiative (PVC) commended the Chairman/CEO NiDCOM and the National Commissioner for NCFRMI and the entire team for the initiative behind the program and applauded both organizations for their immediate response.

Dr. Akinyemi stressed the importance for the prompt creation of this program, stating that trauma has caused mental and socio psychological issues. He further notified the returnees that the services provided by the PVC Initiative will be free and accessible to any and every returnee with no cost to the government.


Mr. Fehintola Damilola Moses, President of Nigeria Students in Ukraine applauded President Mohammadu Buhari, the Minister of foreign Affairs Hon. (Dr.) Abike Dabiri-Erewa and the Nigerian in Diaspora Commission (NiDCOM) team , the Nigerian Ambassador to Ukraine, Amb Shina Feege , Nigerian diaspora organizations,  NGOs and all other government agencies  for the prompt response and rescue of the students from Ukraine. 


He expressed how brutal the situation was and the terrifying experiences most of them faced during the war between Russia and Ukraine. From spending nights in an inadequate bunker to being racially profiled in some instances In his words” We had to boil snow to drink water “
