The Chairman of the Nigeria Diaspora Commission (NiDCOM), Hon. Abike Dabiri-Erewa has dismissed the fears of Nigerians in the Diaspora that their business interests in the country may be in jeopardy by the prevailing security situation.
Appearing at the Ministerial Media Briefing organized by the Presidential Communications Team at the Presidential Villa, Abuja on Thursday, she acknowledged the insecurity in parts of the country, noting, however, that it is temporary even as she said that the federal government is doing all that is necessary to resolve the situation.
Dabiri-Erewa pointed out that the Nigerian security forces have in recent times been bombarding terrorists in a determined attempt to end their menace, expressing confidence that whoever invests in the country among the Diasporans will have a return for their investments.
The Chairman, who gave an update on the Commission’s activities, regretted that Nigerians are being killed on a daily basis in Northern Cyprus with nobody able to intervene because of the political situation in the European enclave.
According to her, there is little that can be done diplomatically to resolve the situation of Nigerians there because Northern Cyprus is not recognized by the international community as a country except by Turkey.
She, therefore, advised Nigerians to refrain from travelling to the country.
