US-ISRAEL VS IRAN: Federal Government Begins Evacuation Of Nigerians From Iran

-


Iran war

The Federal Government has begun evacuating Nigerians who wish to leave Iran, escorting them safely across the Armenian border as tensions continue to rise in the Middle East.

The development was disclosed on Tuesday by the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Nigerians in Diaspora Commission (NiDCOM), Abike Dabiri-Erewa, in a post shared on her X handle.

According to her, officials of the Nigerian Embassy in Tehran are coordinating the evacuation process and assisting Nigerians willing to depart the country.

The evacuees are being escorted to the Armenian border where arrangements have been made to facilitate their safe passage.

The evacuation comes amid growing concerns over the security situation in the region following a series of coordinated military strikes on Iran by the United States and Israel on Saturday, February 28, 2026.

The strikes reportedly triggered retaliatory missile and drone attacks across parts of the Middle East, raising fears of a broader regional conflict.

Despite the rising tension, Dabiri-Erewa reassured that no Nigerian in Iran has been affected by the ongoing hostilities.

She also noted that embassy officials remain stationed at the border to receive and assist Nigerians who decide to leave the country.

“Willing Nigerians being escorted across the Armenian border by officials of the Nigerian embassy in Iran for safe passage. No Nigerian in Iran has been affected by the war as officials remain at the border to receive all who want to leave,” she wrote.

This comes due to the ongoing military strikes between the U.S, Israel and Iran.

  Maria Farmer has called out President Donald Trump, accusing him of lying.   The artist and one of the earliest accusers of Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell accused Trump of lying about his alleged presence at Epstein’s Manhattan office in the 1990s.   In an emotional interview on CNN’s Erin Burnett OutFront on Monday, July 21, Farmer recounted a disturbing encounter she says took place in 1995 when she was 25 years old. At the time, Epstein had recruited her for art-related work and summoned her to his office one evening.   Dressed in exercise shorts after running to the meeting, Farmer says she was left waiting when she noticed a “tall, imposing” man in the room—Donald Trump. “He walked up a few feet from me and just stood over me in a very imposing way,”  she recalled.  “He looked at me like he was in on some secret or something. It was really weird, like smirking. And I felt threatened.”   Farmer said she reacted with an “ugly” face, prompti...
