 Many Nigerian students stranded in Sami, Ukraine, have called for urgent evacuation back home amid a Russian invasion. Sami in north-east Ukraine is close to the Russian border. In videos obtained online, the students said they have dwindling access to food, water and electricity. They also said they wake up most mornings to the sound of explosions and spend hours in bomb shelters beneath their hostels. The federal government has evacuated more than 1,000 Nigerians who made it out of Ukraine to neighboring countries such as Poland and Romania, but the students in Sami are yet to find a way out of the war on Ukraine. This morning, 5 am, 4 am, we are woken up with how many bombs? Six. It was six. I counted each and every one of them. Six. Next thing we want to go home, and they are telling us, first of all, they increase the price of taxi. Who pays almost two million nera to go back to Poltava a two-hour journey? Anybody that is hearing this, from Kuduna to Abuja, two hours, you are telling me to pay a million nera. For like the past two weeks now, since this war started, apparently there has been a rout to leave Sumi since, but school has refused to provide us with buses, with transportation to leave this place. We know about like almost 50 students that have left from this Sumi to go to Poltava. At any amount, we do not care what they have left, now they have decided to go and block that route. At this point, I don't know what is going on, and we are not going to be used as beds. Please, let us go. You must go. Please, let us go. We do not want to be a part of your war. Please. How would you do this? You could reach agreement with the Ukrainian government, the Russian government, a serious agreement. Just create a humanitarian corridor so we can live here. We are tired. A lot of people are going to develop PSTD after this, and it's going to be very serious on this.
