Nigeria Immigration Service stops 58 Nigerian Doctors from flying out to the UK












The Nigerian Immigration Service has blocked 58 medical doctors from leaving the country through the Murtala Muhammed International Airport in Lagos via a chartered flight today July 10.



A statement released by the Immigration spokesman, Sunday James, says the doctors had planned to sneak out of the country via the Lagos airport. James said 56 out of the 58 doctors had no valid UK visas and would have been repatriated when they arrived in the UK. He said the service will not allow individuals or groups of well-educated Nigerians who should know the procedures for travelling out of their country and the requirements during the COVID19 pandemic, to flout relevant laws. Nigerian airspace is at the moment closed to international flights.



The Immigration Service says the chartered flight has already left without the doctors.
