The statement by the
Nigeria Immigration Service (NIS) Public Relations Officer, Deputy Comptroller
of Immigration King Ekpedeme on Wednesday, said the trio were sent packing on
the 20th of July, 2016.
He said the Minister of
Interior, Abdulrahaman Dambuzau, in exercising the powers conferred on him by
sections 45(2) and (3) and 44( 1e) of
the Immigration Act 2015, signed the Deportation Order.
With the deportation order
in force, the three (3) Koreans will not be eligible to enter Nigeria again
through any port in the next ten years.
Ekpedeme therefore,
cautioned all expatriates and their employers in Nigeria to respect the laws of
the country as the Nigeria Immigration Service is determined to implement all
aspect of immigration laws in public interest.
He however, assured
expatriates resident in Nigeria with correct documentation of the protection of
their rights and dignity.
