Air Peace, a private airline in Nigeria has offered to evacuate stranded Nigerians from conflict torn Sudan.
The offer is on the condition that the Federal Government can get them to a safe and secure airport in any of the neighbouring countries bordering Sudan.
This was said in a statement on Monday by the Chairman and Chief Executive Office of the airline, Allen Onyema.
Onyema who noted that Nigerian students and others stranded in Sudan need urgent help, said he felt compelled to help because Nigeria cannot afford to lose her citizens in that country.
“Again, Air Peace is willing to evacuate Nigerians stranded in Sudan free of charge if the government can get them to a safe and secure airport in any of the neighbouring countries bordering Sudan. Everything must not be left to the government and the government alone.

“We are very ready to do it immediately. No time wasting. Any action that would promote national pride, national cohesion, peace and unity, we are for it.
“Again, we have no apologies for believing in our nation and loving the nation despite certain national challenges. If they are moved to Kenya or Uganda or any other country, we will move in to get them out. Some parents have started calling on us to help. We are ready to do this again and again,” he said.
