A number of Nigerian students studying in Sudan have reportedly made arrangements to evacuate themselves to Ethiopia to flee from the vicious fighting that erupted in the country as deaths and destruction have led to the evacuation of foreigners in the country.

According to reports, the students under the auspices of the National Association of Nigerian Students(NANS)Sudan chapter issued a statement calling on colleagues to assemble at three locations in Gadarif, before evacuation to neighbouring Ethiopia.

Gadarif, is the capital of the state of Al Qadarif in Sudan. It lies on the road that connects Khartoum with Gallabat on the Ethiopian border, about 410 kilometres from the capital.

The situation in Sudan is dire as clashes continued on Sunday between the army led by Abdel Fattah al- Burhan and the Rapid Support Force (RSF) led by Mohammed Dalago. About 500 people have killed in over one week of the conflict and the country’s infrastructure has been devastated with hospitals out of service and food shortage threatening civilian lives.

Over 3500 people have been injured and tetens of thousands have fled to neighboring Chad and facing massive humanitarian crisis.

Nigerian Federal Government through the Chairman, Nigerians in Diaspora Commission, Abike Dabiri-Erewa, described as “risky” evacuating Nigerians from the country.

NIDCOM on Friday had said although the Nigerian Mission in Sudan and the National Emergency Management Agency had put in place arrangements to evacuate Nigerians, it was risky for any flight to operate during this period of war.

The NANS statement partly read, “This is to inform all Nigerian students to gather at any of these three locations to proceed with the evacuation to Gadarif, then to Ethiopia. 1. Ifriqiyyah University 2. NANSS Office or 3. El-Razi University.”

It said departure time was 1pm and transport cost $100.

“Those who don’t have the funds should contact either their school or state president. Come along with your passport original/photocopy or school ID card.

“Those that don’t have their passport at hand should also contact their state or school president,” the student body added.

The situation is dicey as all airports and land borders in Sudan were closed as the making evacuation of even diplomats very difficult and complicated.

The Nigerian government however, said that it has set up rescue committee to come up with the safest way of evacuating Nigerians stranded in the troubled nation.

The government disclosed this through the National Emergency Management Agency, stressing that it was aware of the widespread public concern about the situation in Sudan.
