Over 150 Nigerian migrants have been repatriated from Libya by the Directorate for Combating Illegal Migration, in partnership with the International Organisation for Migration.
The returnees, consisting of women and children, were repatriated through Mitiga International Airport in Tripoli.
The development was announced on Tuesday by Migrant Rescue Watch, an advocacy group, in a post on X.
This followed the arrest of four Nigerians in Sabha and Bani Walid for drug trafficking and testing positive for infectious diseases.
