The Federal Government has now published guidelines for prospective Nigerians willing to come back home.

First, it directed all its missions abroad to compile lists of willing nationals who wanted to come back home.

The Chairman of the Nigerians in Diaspora Commission, Hon Abike Dabiri-Erewa told interested Nigerians to inform the missions in the various countries they are in, who will then collate and coordinate with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

She, however, said that the financial implications will be borne by the prospective evacuees, who will be compulsorily quarantined when they return.

For embassies in several countries who are also on lockdown, Dabiri directed those interested to go online and fill a form provided on the commission's website: https://nidcom.gov.ng/form101/
