Forty-four people were killed in the unfortunate incident that occurred in the early hours of Wednesday.
President Muhammadu Buhari on Wednesday condemned the airstrike and described it as “inhuman, wicked and callous attack on helpless and defenceless people”.
The Chairman/Chief Executive Officer (CEO), Nigerians in Diaspora Commission (NIDCOM), Mrs. Abike Dabiri-Erewa, condoled with the families of the nine Nigerians involved.
In a statement, she said it was disheartening that nine Nigerians have been identified as victims in the unfortunate incident.
According to Abdurahman Balogun, the commission’s media aide, Mrs. Dabiri-Erewa said it was regrettable that migrants survived a treacherous journey only to be killed in someone else’s war in Libya.
She said it was painful that the affected Nigerians, who were due to be airlifted back to Nigeria, were cut down in their prime.
