    The Nigerians in Diaspora Commission, under the leadership of Abike Dabiri-Erewa, has addressed over 1,000 petitions in the past five years, focusing on issues such as emergencies, stranded citizens, consular matters, trafficking, and deportations.

    These efforts were part of NiDCOM’s mandate, which includes fostering diaspora investments and strengthening the connection between Nigeria and its citizens abroad.

    Dabiri-Erewa disclosed this as the commission was established five years ago in 2019 by President Muhammadu Buhari in Abuja.

    The NiDCOM boss expressed gratitude for NiDCOM’s contributions and outlined future aspirations.

    She also acknowledged the challenges faced by the agency while emphasising the role of its dedicated staff in promoting Nigeria’s interests on the global stage.

    “The Nigerians in Diaspora Commission says it treated over 1,000 petitions from Nigerians in the diaspora in the last five years ranging from emergencies, stranded citizens, consular, trafficking and deportation issues as well as an increase in Diaspora investments in the country.

    “The NiDCOM Boss acknowledged the challenges faced but expressed hope for the future, envisioning a brighter path for the commission and its staff,” according to a statement signed by Gabriel Odu of the NiDCOM Public Relations Unit on Friday.

    The Secretary to the Commission, Dr. Sule Bassi, underlined the staff’s pivotal role in fostering diaspora engagement, attracting investment, protecting Nigerians abroad, and promoting Nigeria’s positive image for the Commission.

    He noted the hurdles NiDCOM experienced but expressed confidence in the Commission’s ability to deliver effective services.
