The Comptroller
General, Nigeria Immigration Service (NIS), Muhammad Babandede, has ordered the
extension of suspension placed on passport processing and migrant
e-registration.
The date was
postponed from 23rd April to 23rd May.
Babandede’s
directive was contained in a statement on Thursday by the Service Public
Relations Officer (SPEO), Sunday James.
It followed the
federal government’s directives on restrictions on international flight and
closure of land borders.
NIS explained that
the extension would give the situation the deserved attention and approach,
considering the successes achieved and the need to drastically reduce the
spread.
“Meanwhile, the
Service is taking advantage of this period to process all pending passport
cases and the public will be duly informed when they are ready for collection
at the expiration of the restriction order,” Babandede said.
The NIS 2020
recruitment deadline has also been postponed till April 30.
