It insisted that illegal migration had become rampant following the national socio-economic downturn but maintained that the “Japa Syndrome” embraced by the youths in recent times was not the solution.
Nandap revealed that over 1,200 youths died in the Mediterranean Sea & deserts last year alone.
“Don’t be deceived, economic downturn is now a global phenomenon. If you have been watching events across the world, you would have noticed protests in some countries. So, it is not about Nigeria. It is a global issue.
