The Comptroller General of Nigerian Immigration Service (NIS), Muhammad Babban Dede, has said issuance of resident permit to emigrants would soon commence.
Dede revealed that the new development would enable the Nigerian government to fish out illegal immigrants residing in the country, insisting whoever failed to conform to the directive risked deportation.
He said this during the graduation ceremony of 396 Immigration Officers that undertook the 44th Superintendent Basic Course at Kano Immigration Training School, adding that the renewed issuance became pertinent due to insecurity confronting the nation.
