At last two Nigerian Nationals are feared dead and 12 others have been rescued by local fishermen after a vessel dumped them off the shores in Southeastern Grand Kru County, Liberia.
They had illegally boarded a vessel from Nigeria and were heading to Japan when crew members recognized that they were illegal passengers.
Grand Kru County Superintendent Doris Ylatun, whilst speaking on a local radio Wednesday evening, said those rescued will be evacuated to Monrovia Friday.
