Several Immigration officers engaging in improper and unprofessional conduct at the Murtalal Mohammed International Airport in Lagos have been invited for questioning and sanctions.

This is according to the Comptroller-General of the Nigeria Immigration Service (NIS), Mr Muhammad Babandede. He has vowed to apply stiffer sanctions on any officer who engages in professional misconduct.

The NIS boss said he visited the Murtala Muhammed International Airport (MMIA) Lagos, on “undercover mission’’ recently to monitor the NIS operations.

He said during his visit, some officers were caught engaging in unprofessional activities.

“The officers had been invited to the NIS headquarters in Abuja for questioning and appropriate sanctions.

“This is to ensure that passengers are not subjected to unnecessary delays and that our services are efficient and in line with international best practice,’’ Babandede said.

According to him, his team has scheduled a similar visit to all other airports/formations in the country to rid the service of bad eggs.
