                    [Summary] => 





The Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE) partially lifted yesterday the ban on the deployment of overseas Filipino workers (OFWs) to Nigeria and Lebanon. 


The move came after the release of Winston Helera, 52, who was kidnapped in Nigeria along with 24 other Filipino workers there in January.

The kidnapping had prompted the Philippine government to impose a deployment ban on Nigeria, the biggest employer of Filipino workers in Africa. Some 3,900 Filipinos were employed there at the end of 2006.
