Others are the Chairman of S.J. ABED Ltd, Mr. Donald Abed, and Chairman of Apple and Pear Ltd, Mr. Habib Jaafar.

Some of the women, who spoke with NAN, regretted ever going to Lebanon to seek for greener pasture.

They claimed that they were “severely maltreated” in Lebanon and had to “run for our lives”.

“We are happy to be back home. We shall remain in Nigeria and do any legitimate business to survive. We appreciate those that arranged for this repatriation and shall continue to pray for them,” they said.
