Mohamad Baredaa is the head of security of Libya migration agency, which is working with the International Organization for Migration (IOM) to coordinate the deportation.


Baredaa said: “We carried out on Tuesday the expulsion of 163 irregular migrants of Nigerian nationality from the Mitiga airport, including 107 women, 51 men and five children.


“160 Nigerians will be sent back to their country from Benina airport in Benghazi”, later on Tuesday.
