The Nigeria Immigration Service
(NIS) on Saturday gave an update on the visa on arrival policy.
Comptroller General, Muhammad
Babandede, spoke on Saturday at the Immigration Training School, Kano State.
The CGI said the policy was an
opportunity for Africans that were coming for legitimate businesses to thrive
in countries other than their own.
He added that it was a means of
integration and cementing African brotherhood and breaking the barriers of free
movement among Africans.
Babandede assured Nigerians that
the policy would be handled professionally through best global practices
without compromising national security.
“Presidential Amnesty granted by
President Muhammadu Buhari for six months from July, 2019 will expire in
January, 2020.
“Registration will continue to
enable every migrant get registered and remain in the country.
“However, any defaulter that
refuses to take advantage of the opportunity will be removed from Nigeria,” he
said.
