As announced in our March 1970 issue, the ICRC put an end to its relief action in Nigeria on 6 February 1970. However, the personnel of its delegation in Lagos as well as that at the air base at Cotonou in Dahomey, reduced in numbers, were kept on for several weeks to wind up outstanding matters. The Lagos delegation consisted of ten, of whom three were delegates. There were also three employees still stationed at Santa Isabel in Equatorial Africa and three others at Cotonou.
