Abstract

Many Nigerians move into Diaspora for greener pasture (jakpa) while some could move because of insecurity, the level of poverty and abuse of human rights by the past and present Nigerian governments. The October 2020 end SARS (police brutality) a national protest mostly by Nigerian youths under President Mohamadu Buhari and the august 2024 ten days national protest against bad governance, insecurity, poverty and abuse of human rights in Nigerian. The government responded by intimidating arresting and even killing protesters instead of finding out what happens and how to solve them. The Nigerian governments have no listening ears and exclude the Nigerian citizens from governance the research work is anchored on the push and pull factors in migration the researcher reviewed many literature in migration role of Diasporas in both countries of origin and host countries the role of United Nations Agencies in Diaspora and partnership with the Diasporas for national development. The research found out that the Diasporas have been helping at family and community levels and also at national level through partnership with mostly the Nigerians in Diaspora commission. Majority of them still have interest at home and would like to come home after their sojourn in Diaspora. The federal government of Nigeria should create adequate awareness about migrating through illegal routes because many Sub Sahara Africans have died while migrating illegally through the Sahara Desert and the Mediterranean Sea to Europe and other places. They should also create enabling environment for those who choose to remain in Nigeria to stop further unnecessary and desperate migration.
