The Federal Government has expressed appreciation to the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) for donating $265,854 to support the evacuation of distressed Nigerians from South Africa.
The government said the financial contribution would assist ongoing efforts to facilitate the safe return of Nigerians who require evacuation from the country amid concerns over their safety and welfare.
The donation represents a significant intervention by the RCCG in support of the Federal Government’s efforts to provide assistance to Nigerians facing difficult circumstances in South Africa.
The Federal Government commended the church for responding to the situation and supporting efforts aimed at protecting Nigerians and helping distressed citizens return home.
The contribution also highlights the role of faith-based organisations and other non-governmental stakeholders in supporting government interventions during emergencies and situations involving vulnerable Nigerians abroad.
The evacuation effort is expected to provide relief to affected citizens and ensure that those who wish to return to Nigeria can do so with appropriate assistance.
The government has continued to engage relevant authorities and stakeholders in addressing the welfare and safety of Nigerians living in other countries, particularly where citizens face situations that threaten their security or livelihoods.
The RCCG’s contribution is expected to complement government resources being deployed towards the evacuation exercise and other support measures for distressed Nigerians.
The Federal Government’s appreciation comes as stakeholders continue to call for stronger measures to protect Nigerians abroad and provide timely assistance to citizens facing emergencies outside the country.
The government said the intervention demonstrates the importance of collective responsibility in responding to crises affecting Nigerians and expressed gratitude to the RCCG for its support.
