In a swift move to uphold its integrity, the Nigeria Immigration Service (NIS) has indefinitely suspended an officer stationed at Murtala Muhammed International Airport for begging a traveler.
Incident, which sparked outrage, was captured and circulated on social media, prompting the NIS to take decisive action.
The officer, whose identity remains undisclosed, was caught on camera soliciting money from a passenger, an act that has tarnished the image of the service.
NIS, in a statement, reaffirmed its zero-tolerance policy towards corruption and misconduct, pledging to investigate the matter thoroughly and ensure appropriate disciplinary measures are enforced.
This suspension underscores the NIS’s commitment to maintaining professionalism among its ranks, especially at critical national entry points like the Murtala Muhammed International Airport.
