    Immigration raises alarm over increasing irregular migrants entering Nigeria – Ravenewsonline

    Controller of the Nigeria Immigration Service, Edo State Command, Martins Moye, has raised alarm over the rising number of irregular migrants entering Nigeria.

    He spoke at the 2024 Nigeria Immigration Service (NIS) enlightenment campaign against irregular migration in Benin City, Edo State.

    The theme of the event was “Say No to Migrant Smuggling. If You Must Migrate, Migrate Safely, Orderly, and Regularly.”

    Speaking at the event, Moye emphasized the urgency of the campaign given the increasing numbers of irregular migrants.

    Assistant Controller of Immigration David Amanahu, a facilitator from NIS headquarters in Abuja, also delivered a message from the Controller-General of Immigration, Kemi Nandap.

    Amanahu noted, “The Controller-General’s message is clear: the NIS is now more focused than ever on border management and migration issues.”

    Another facilitator, Deputy Superintendent of Immigration Woshak Danladi, outlined the severe dangers of irregular migration.

    “Irregular migration can cost you your freedom, and in some cases, even your life.

    “There’s a risk of organ harvesting, human rights abuses, and many more dangers,” he warned, urging officers to actively educate the public on these risks.
