BAHN, Nimba – A total of 244 Ivorian Refugees including men, women, and children of 46 households on Wednesday, April 6, 2022, were repatriated to The Ivory Coast. The Government of Liberia announced the invocation of the Cessation Clause for Ivorian Refugees on 24th February 2022 and it will take effect on 30 June 2022. This process is happening in all countries that are hosting Ivorian refugees. The voluntary repatriation of Ivorian refugees started in late 2012. While UNHCR facilitated the return of some 40,000 refugees from Liberia, an additional 160,000 are believed to have returned on their own.
