NIS arrests 280 illegal immigrants in Adamawa

Writer: AdminAdmin

The Adamawa State Command of the Nigeria Immigration Service (NIS) has arrested 280 illegal aliens in the State.

The Comptroller of the service in the state, Mr Ubi Ikpi, told newsmen in Yola that the arrest was part of the command’s renewed efforts to rid the state of illegal aliens and enhance security.

“It is pertinent that we rid Adamawa of miscreants because it is very possible they can compound the security situation in the country since they don’t have valid papers and identifiable places of abode,” Ikpi said.

He said those arrested were from neighbouring African countries, adding that they would be documented and screened for subsequent deportation.

He urged the general public to support and cooperate with the command by identifying and reporting illegal aliens and criminals to the appropriate authorities.

The comptroller commended the synergy among the various security agencies in the state and called for sustenance of the partnership.
