AS non-indigenes continue to leave Borno State following the spate of attacks unleashed on the state by the Boko Haram fundamentalist sect, many indigenes of Ekiti, Edo and Akwa Ibom states who fled the embattled state have arrived home.
43 arrived Ekiti on Friday. Over 150 were also received in Edo and 65 in Akwa Ibom.
The Ekiti evacuees, who are students of tertiary institutions in Borno State, arrived the Government House, Ado-Ekiti at about 3.30 a.m. in three buses.
The students, who narrated their ordeal to reporters, hailed Governor Kayode Fayemi for coming to their rescue by sending buses to convey them from Maiduguri.
Officials of the Government House were on hand to attend to the needs of the evacuees.
