Mr Ezekiel noted that at 4:29 AM on Sunday, the stranded returnees landed at the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport in Abuja, via a Max Air Charted flight.

According to the Head of the Press Unit, a total of 460 females, 79 males and 3 kids were among the numbers of returnees that arrived Abuja.
