“We are deploying electronic digital technology to ensure 24/7 inch by inch surveillance of the 4,500 kilometres borderline from the eastern part to the western part including coastlines. This is one of the several achievements of President Muhammadu Buhari,” he said while adding that “Katsina has 14 border positions manned by Immigration Personnel with about 400km borderline, and the people of Katsina must be confident of our readiness to protect these border positions.”
On his part, the Governor of Katsina State, Alhaji Aminu Masari, who was represented by the Secretary to the Katsina State Government, Alhaji Muntari Lawal, commended the effort of the Nigeria Immigration Service in curbing the menace of insecurity, and playing a major role in fighting banditry.
The SSG commended the Ministry of Interior for the feat achieved in successfully establishing a state Command of the Nigeria Immigration Service in Katsina.
The Minister of Interior, Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola; Comptroller General of the Nigeria Immigration Service, Isah Idris; and other senior management officials of the service and other agencies under the Ministry of Interior, paid a courtesy visit to the governor at his office where other matters of critical national importance were discussed.
