Chairman/CEO, Nigerians in Diaspora Commission Hon Abike
Dabiri-Erewa has given renewed hope again to the 485 Nigerian
voluntary Returnees from South Africa to fast track their
reintegration and stabilization through the signing of an MOU with

The NIDCOM Chairman disclosed this when she paid a courtesy
visit to the Director General/CEO of SMEDAN Dr Dikko Umaru in

reassured that President Muhammadu Buhari has not and will not
abandon them but will ensure they are fully engaged and
reintegrated.
The Director General of SMEDAN Dr Umaru, matching words with
action quickly agreed to the working out and subsequent signing of
an MOU as soon as practicable to factor in the Returnees from South

issues affecting Nigerians in Diaspora, urging never to be
discouraged but to remain undaunted.
