This follows a full blown war in Ukraine following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine which has seen black Africans suffer the worst atrocities at the hands of their hosts who are on the verge of being annexed to Putin’s Russia.

The Nigerian president, Muhammadu Buhari, said on Monday: “All who flee a conflict situation have the same right to safe passage under the UN convention and the colour of their passport or their skin should make no difference,” reports the Guardian.

Spokesperson for Ministry of Foreign Affairs John Kabaghe confirmed five Malawians are still processing their travel arrangements from Poland, while three will remain in neighbouring nations on academic grounds.
