Abike Dabiri clarified the situation following a viral video that showed Nigerians detained in Libya pleading for assistance. She mentioned that during President Buhari's administration, she advocated for a significant evacuation of Nigerians stuck in Libya. The request was approved, leading to the formation of a high-level delegation that was sent to Libya to assist in evacuating citizens from detention centers. However, many of those who were rescued often attempt to return.
