Jere of NIS Pledges to Consolidates on Gain at Nigeria Immigration Service
The Acting Comptroller General of Immigration (CGI), Idris Isah Jere has promised to consolidate on the gains recorded by the Service in the past few years. He disclosed this when he was formally presented to the Minister of Interior, Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola by the Federal Commissioners and Board Secretary of the Civil Defence, Correctional, Fire and Immigration Services Board (CDCFIB) today in Abuja.

2. Speaking at the event, the Acting CGI noted that he is quite aware of the daunting task of securing the nation’s borders as well as offering effective service to Nigerians and migrants. In his words: “May I hasten to state that I am not under any illusion whatsoever about the herculean task which lies ahead but I believe that with the usual support of the Federal Government, particularly the Ministry of Interior, the enhanced commitment, cooperation and dedication to duty by all Officers and Men as well as the collaboration of our teeming stakeholders, we shall not only consolidate on existing legacies of the past administration which we all vigorously pursued, but we shall equally strive to fill identified gaps and take the NIS to greater heights”.
