The Nigerian government has commenced the movement of Nigerian students stranded in war-torn Sudan.
They have been moved to a location where they would be air-lifted back to Nigeria.
It has not been an easy time for the students, as they cried out daily for help.
Finally, they are hopeful, they would return home and unite with their families safely.
The Nigerian government did not also have it easy. There was so much pressure on them.
Concerned citizens on daily basis called out the government to ensure the safe return of the students in Sudan.
