Speaker of the House of Representatives, Femi Gbajabiamila, says lack of synergy between agencies must stop to ensure Nigerians stranded in Sudan are promptly evacuated.
In his welcome address to plenary after a three-week recess, the Speaker invited the Minister of Foreign affairs, Geoffrey Onyeama and the Chairman of the Nigerians in Diaspora Commission, Abike Dabiri, to explain the controversies over the non- evacuation of Nigerians in the conflict-hit country.
The speaker further noted that the priority of the house is to ensure the welfare and well-being of citizens caught in the war while emphasising the need to revisit the statutory frameworks for addressing such situations.
