The Federal Government has established migrants and internally displaced persons re-integration centre in the Ibeju Lekki area of Lagos State.
The centre which was commissioned last week by Hajiya Hadiza Sani Kangiwa,the Honourable Federal Commissioner , National Commission for Refugees, Migrants and Internally Displaced Persons, was established in conjunction with Web of Hearts, a non-governmental organization based in Lagos State.
Highlighting the importance of the centre, Hajiya Kangiwa said: “This centre is to serve as a component of the Assisted Voluntary Return and Reintegration (AVRR) programme.
We have set it up in collaboration with Web of Hearts with whom we have recently signed a Memorandum of Understanding to serve as a transit centre where returnee migrants would be provided with counselling services, mentorship, family reunification, skill acquisition, training, temporary accommodation and much more.”
The executive director of Web Heart, Bose Aggrey expressed optimism that the centre would encourage a lot of Nigerians stranded abroad to return home.
