The Nigeria Immigration Service (NIS) has issued a warning to the general public, particularly those looking to apply for passports, to be aware of the actions of touts posing as immigration officers.
This was stated at the Command’s End-of-Year celebration and award ceremony on Saturday in Owerri by Mr. Cyril Alaje, the Deputy Comptroller of Immigration and Passport Control Officer for the command.
He gave the people of Imo his words that the Command will keep up its commitment to provide top-notch customer service while meeting all of its primary objectives.
Also, NIS Comptroller in Imo, Mrs. Nkechi Ezugwu, said that the recognition was a call to better service while recognizing outstanding officers in the state. She added that they were deemed deserving of the awards after a “rigorous selection process.”
She conveyed her sincere gratitude to the state’s governor, Sen. Hope Uzodimma, for approving the Command’s Headquarters’ move to a new location and her certainty that the required legal paperwork to support the move will be processed quickly.
