Mba, a businessman and philanthropist, said: “No hope is lost, and whatever happened in South Africa would not be a hindrance to your growth, particularly that of your children.”
Ume-Ezeoke, the group’s coordinator, lauded previous efforts by the federal government, noting that the country had potential to be harnessed by the returnees.
