From a Germany hosted charter deportation operation (22.01.2025) from Munchen to Lagos, 2 among 37 deported persons arrived lifeless as they were received by Officials of the Nigerian immigration service at the Lagos Cargo Airport yesterday.
According to a fellow deported eye witness, protest broke out shortly after the unconscious persons were conveyed lifeless into the immigration office by other deportees.
With one of the refugees raising an alarm as he blamed the Nigerian authority for accepting both deportees in such situation, other deportees got motivated and conveyed the bodies back to the landing area as they challenged the German Embassy observer and the Airline crew to proffer urgent medical attention and return both persons back to Germany. The protest as we understood drew the attention of the Immigration Boss and other relevant airport Authorities who later appeared at the scene.
The unconscious persons were yesterday evening conveyed with the Airport Ambulance to and unknown location for urgent medical attention as we assume.
Detailed update on this development will be communicated soon.
