The Federal Government on Friday gave all returnees from Ukraine $100 (about N48,000) to ameliorate their sufferings.
The Nigerians in Diaspora Commission (NiDCOM) made the disclosure in Abuja.
The first batch of 450 Nigerians stranded in Ukraine returned home from Romania through the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport, Abuja.
Spokesman of NiDCOM, Mr. Abdur-Rahman Balogun, said that the returnees, mostly students, arrived Nigeria with Max Air flight 747 at 7:10a.m.
He, however, said that the evacuees from Poland could not return on Thursday because their flight was rescheduled for Friday, to arrive Abuja at 2.30p.m.
He added that Air Peace left on Thursday to pick the passengers from Hungary, and was expected to arrive Abuja at 4.30p.m.
