He said the decision was aimed at tackling the annual influx of
camels into the state through the common border.
“We have directed our officers at the borders and entry points
to properly profile and document herdsmen.
“Every migrant will be stopped and their luggage thoroughly
searched, stating their mission and destination,” he said.
Meanwhile, Abba has described the promoted officers as good
ambassadors of the NIS who had displayed hard work and commitment
to service.
“Your promotion is a call for more hard work, it is time to show
more commitment to duty,” he said.
The controller urged the officers in the command to also exude
discipline in carrying out their duties.
“The service does not tolerate improper dressing from officers,
any officer found guilty of this shall be punished,” he said.
He said that the NIS Comptroller-General, Mr Muhammad Babandede
had zero tolerance for indiscipline and laziness, saying,
“dereliction of duty and absenteeism are offences that must be
reported to the headquarters”. (NAN)
