143 Ghanaians voluntarily repatriated from Libya


A total of 143 Ghanaians who travelled to Libya in pursuit of bet­ter opportunities were voluntarily brought back home on Thursday night via a chartered flight. This brings to total 5,142 Gha­naians who have willingly returned since 2017 under the International Organisation for Migration’s (IOM) Voluntary Humanitarian Return Assistance Programme. Last year, the IOM, supported by the Migrant Protection, Return, and Reintegration Programme for Sub-Saharan Africa (MPRR-SSA), funded by the European Union, facilitated the safe return of 629 Ghanaians: 555 men, 58 women, and 16 children, via four chartered flights from Libya. Emphasising the pivotal role of the youth in the country’s growth, Ms Ndiaye encouraged them to leverage their competences for the development of Ghana and the families for whom they travelled. Additionally, the IOM and part­ners will support the migrants in developing comprehensive reinte­gration plans that address econom­ic, social, and psychosocial needs.
