The Yoruba Heritage Group has appealed to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu to confirm the appointment of … as the Comptroller General of Immigration.
The President of the group, Omo’ba Segun Adesemoye, while addressing a press conference in Abuja, this is the first time a Yoruba would be in charge of the Service since its establishment in 1963.
He said the new CG took over on merit as the most senior officer after the exit of the last CG, Isah Jere.
The group hailed the President for breaking the jinx by allowing this to happen during this critical time when Nigeria is in dire need of healing and national restoration.
“It is record-breaking and symbolic that the appointment happened in your first day in office.
“This is a pointer to greater things to come. We thank the President for his courage and selflessness,” he said.
The group expressed confidence in the competence and capacity of the new CG to push reforms that would transform the service and serve diligently in line with the vision of the President to ensure effective and efficient border security, enhance passport regime and migration management.
