Uhomoibhi, the Head of Chancery of Embassy of Nigeria, Thailand, the Government said:

I am directed to bring to your attention that due to measures that are beyond the control of the COVID-19 local organizing team in Nigeria, all evacuees going to Nigeria henceforth are to now pay for their quarantine, isolation, accommodation centre or hotels before departure and arrival in Nigeria. In this regard, all prospective evacuees are to note the negotiated rate below:

Accommodation: ₦15,000 x 16 days = ₦240,000

Feeding: ₦3,600 x 16 days = ₦57,600.

Total = ₦18,600 x 16 days = ₦297,600.
