The Nigeria Immigration Service (NIS) has suspended an officer captured in a viral video soliciting a bribe from a tourist at Murtala Muhammed International Airport in Lagos. The incident, which has sparked public outrage, has prompted swift action from the NIS.
In a statement released on Wednesday, Comptroller General Kemi Nandap announced the indefinite suspension of Okpravero Ufuoma, an Assistant Superintendent of Immigration II (ASI 2). Nandap made it clear that Ufuoma’s conduct is not in line with the values and professionalism upheld by the NIS.
