Reps to probe absence of data on expatriates living in Nigeria
The House of Representatives Committee on Interior says it plans to investigate the lack of data on the number of expatriates living in Nigeria.
Ayuba Adele, the vice chairman of the House Committee on Interior, said this during an interactive session on Friday with the management of IRIS Smart Technology and Continental Transfer Technique in Abuja.
Mr Adele said the probe was to identify shortcomings or irregularities and implement necessary reforms to address them.
He said the investigation was crucial for upholding the integrity of immigration procedures and ensuring that citizens and residents received fair and timely treatment.
Mr Adele said the committee had, in a letter to the managing directors of the agencies under its purview, requested the true agreement, terms of MoU or contract signed with the federal government.
