The Comptroller General, Nigerian Immigration Service (NIS) Mrs Kemi Nandap, says no space will be given to any criminal minded travellers across the windows of the country.
Nandap gave the assurance in a statement by Service Public Relations Officer (SPRO) Mr Kenneth Udo on Wednesday in Abuja.
The Comptroller General extended hearty felicitations to all Muslims Officers and Men of Nigeria Immigration Service (NIS), Nigerian citizens and migrants who are resident in the country.
Nandap felicitated with President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and Minister of Interior, Dr Olubumi Tunji-Ojo on the auspicious occasion.
She also commended all Muslims who, through shared commitment and dedication, took time out to fast and pray for the security, unity and welfare of the country, and charged all Nigerians to continually promote Godly virtues on a daily basis while affirming the NIS commitment to border security and management.
“I believe in a better Nigeria and I am assuring the nation of the NIS’ renewed determination to make the nation’s borders safe and protected.
“No space will be given to any criminally minded travellers across our windows.
“Only properly documented and authorised migrants, who are capable of creating or adding value through legitimate engagements, are allowed a space to reside in the country”, she said.
The NIS boss also called for an enhanced synergy among security agencies, saying that “by working together, we can fortify the foundations of national defense, security and development”.
