He said the passing out of the 652 graduates cadets from the Immigration Training School, Kano, was a clear demonstration of the federal government’s commitment to not only strengthen the country's national security but also to provide gainful employment to Nigerian teeming youths.

Danbazau said the NIS would remain committed to staff training and discipline so as to ensure effective service delivery.

He said the ministry and indeed the civil defence, fire, immigration and prisons services board would continue to maintain absolute zero tolerance for misconduct from any personnel under its supervision.

Dambazau, therefore, urged those graduating to ensure that they are always guided by the trainings they received as well as by the agency’s rules of engagement in their conduct.

He said: “As the supervising ministry, we shall continue to ensure that we attend to the genuine needs of all the services under our purview including NIS, for enhanced service delivery."

In his remark, the comptroller general of the NISS, Muhammad Babandede, tasked the graduating cadets on discipline and professional lifestyle.

Babandede said the 43rd superintendent basic course was the first set of cadets with first degrees.

He said: “We are proud to state that this new NIS training curriculum is one of the best document for any training institution in Nigeria.

“It is important to inform you that you are coming into an IT-driven service that puts high premium on systems automation and professionalism."

He warned the officers to avoid what he described as presentation of high profile notes or calls for special postings or favours, saying that anybody who engaged in such acts the document would be recorded in his/her secret registry file.

Babandede added: “The consequence of such lobby for any favour may mar your career progression in the service in future."

Buhari’s Legacy Of Recessions By Fredrick Nwabufo

Fredrick Nwabufo ‘Why always Buhari?’ As it was in 1984 under General Buhari, so it is in 2016 and 2020 under President Buhari? Is it by the unfortunate hands of kismet that recession hits Nigeria every time Buhari takes charge of the country’s affairs? If the recession of the 80s under Buhari was a conspiracy by economic and political factors, to what do we attribute that of his first coming as a civilian President — and now in his second coming? Why does pestilence scourge the land, hunger ravage the population and lives lost malevolently when Buhari presides over the country? Why always Buhari? Buhari’s undoing is his wonted predilection for hierarchising ethnicity, religion and loyalty above competence. Since 1999, no President has obtrusively shown a more nepotistic aspect than Buhari. It is unarguable that the President arrays the most competence-challenged cabinet ever in the chronicle of governance in Nigeria. Yes, a recession cabinet. Fredrick Nwabufo Here is a cabin...
