The Comptroller General (CG) of the Nigeria Immigration Service (NIS), Mrs Kemi Nandap, has said that no space will be given to any criminally-minded traveller across the windows of the country.

Mrs Nandap, who gave the assurance in a statement by the service’s spokesman, Mr Kenneth Udo, on Wednesday, extended hearty felicitations to all Muslim officers and men of the NIS, Nigerian citizens and migrants who were resident in the country.

She also commended all Muslims who, through commitment and dedication fasted and prayed for the security, unity and welfare of the country.

She charged all Nigerians to continue to promote godly virtues on a daily basis while affirming the NIS commitment to border security and management.

The statement reads in part: “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 traveller 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.” (NAN)
