The returnees arrived at the Cargo Wing of the Murtala Muhammed International Airport, Lagos at 10.30 p.m.
They returned aboard a chartered Airbus 320 with registration number LZ-MDI operated by VIA Airways.
The returnees comprised 54 adult females, four of whom were pregnant and seven female children.
There were also 79 adult males and four male children.
The South West Zonal Coordinator of the National Emergency Management Agency (NEMA), Suleiman Yakubu, received the returnees on behalf of Federal Government.
The returnees were each given £100 (N35, 000) to settle down in Nigeria, while some state governments assisted them with transportation back home.
