The Nigerian Immigration Service (NIS) has suspended 2 officers, Araoyinbo Oluwadare and Gabriel Awosanmi, for aiding and abetting the smuggling of human beings.
The spokesman for the agency, Mr. Sunday James, announced this in a statement Friday.
Oluwadare, a senior immigration inspector, and Awosanmi, an immigration assistant, 1 were arrested at Lagos International Airport on Thursday night.
They allegedly facilitated an attempt to smuggle six underage girls to Oman and Kuwait by Ethiopian Airlines.
Reports say aviation security personnel at the airport apprehended the duo.
James said, “The Comptroller General of Immigration, Muhammad Babandede, has ordered the suspension of the above mentioned from duties with immediate effect in line with Service Rules and Regulations.
“The suspension is to allow for detailed investigation into the issue with a view to unraveling their level of culpability and indeed other syndicates involved in the act.
“The comptroller-general therefore assures the public of management’s commitment to the eradication of smuggling of migrants and trafficking of persons in the country.’’
