Festus Keyamo Reaction 

"I appreciate your response, @AirFranceNG. I have also chatted directly with some of the passengers in Chad and Mr. Jean Francois Hasperue, the French Chargé d'Affaire in Nigeria who has been proactive about the matter.

 They have all kept me abreast of the situation. 

Some passengers are being catered for in hotels in N’Djamena, but a few are still complaining of lack of care. We just want our citizens back home, safe and sound."
