Abike Dabiri-Erewa posted a video on Twitter which shows students waiting outside to board buses.

Ms Dabiri-Erewa says these buses are boarding students and will then start the journey out of Sudan.

They will be taken to Egypt, and eventually flown to Nigeria, she said.

It comes just a few hours after we spoke to a university student in Khartoum who was eagerly waiting for help from Nigeria's embassy, but had felt abandoned.
