The first batch of Nigerians to be repatriated from South Africa over the latest xenophobic violence have arrived in Lagos.
The group, comprising 268 Nigerians, touched down at 10.30am at the Murtala Muhammed International Airport on Thursday, via Air Peace airlines.
The return flight was initially scheduled for Monday but was later moved to Wednesday over documentation delays.
Over 1,000 Nigerians are said to have expressed interest in returning home.
