NSCDC partners immigration on border security, correctional service in Kwara

Umar Mohammed, the Kwara State Commandant of the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC), has called for sustained cooperation among security agencies to address the issue of insecurity in Nigeria.

The Commandant gave the call when Iyabode Okuwa-Idris, the newly-deployed Kwara State Immigration Service Controller, paid him a courtesy visit in his office in Ilorin, the State Capital.

A press release by Ayoola Micheal Shola, stated that Umar stressed the crucial role of collaborative efforts in addressing the diverse security challenges confronting the nation.

He emphasized that through concerted efforts, security agencies could harness their combined resources and knowledge to effectively combat insecurity and guarantee the safety of all Nigerians.

He reiterated the Command’s commitment to assisting Nigerian Immigration Service in combating irregular migration and other trans-border crimes within the State.

Iyabode Okuwa-Idris, the Kwara State Comptroller of Immigration Service, appreciated the Commandant for the warmth reception accorded her, adding that the visit was to familiarize and strengthen the inter-agency synergy between the two agencies under the Ministry of Interior.
