AN ADDRESS DELIVERED BY AISHA YESUFU AT THE #NIGERIAIMMIGRATION2000 MARCH TO THE PRESIDENT, FEDERAL REPUBLIC OF NIGERIA AT THE STATE HOUSE ON THE 19TH OF AUGUST 2016.

Mr President,

Before you today are the officers and men of the Nigeria Immigration Service (NIS) from across the country who were recruited in May 2015.

After the botched NIS recruitment of 2014 which claimed the lives of some applicants, the Federal Government decided to do an open and transparent recruitment based on merit and following laid down procedure.

These were the best 2000 out of over 1 million applicants. After undergoing a rigorous recruitment process which included writing computer-based tests, interviews, and screenings, they proceeded for three months training which included Parade drills, Paramilitary Ethics, Immigration Manual, Weapons Handling (G3, AK47 riffles etc) and over a dozen courses relevant to the Nigeria Immigration Service.

These they did without being paid any stipend. Some had to incur debts to get uniform and other accoutrements, some resigned their well-paying jobs for a chance to serve their fatherland.

But unfortunately, they were dispersed on the 20th of August, 2015 without any reasons given. Tomorrow 20th of August 2016 will be ONE FULL YEAR being on the streets.

By recognition of the social contract between government and the citizens, they decided to bring their grievances to the government in a peaceful and orderly manner with the hope that justice will be done. They have been everywhere in the land, from the Ministry of Interior to the National Assembly to the Office of the Secretary to the Government of the Federation, all to no avail.

On 12th April 2016 House of Representatives reached a resolution, mandating the Ministry of Interior, the Civil Defence, Fire Service, Immigration, and Prisons Service Board (CDFSIPB) and the Nigeria Immigration Service to reabsorb them but this has not been heeded.

Instead of reinstating them into the Service by way of a circular, on the 15th of August 2016 new stringent, vindictive, and unrealistic criteria for the screeing of #NigeriaImmigration2000 as fresh applicants, purportedly signed by the Comptroller General of NIS appeared in the national dailies.

First, this said publication referred to the #NigeriaImmigration2000 as 'Applicants'. It is pertinent to state categorically and without mincing words that #NigeriaImmigration2000 ARE NOT applicants, but have been officers and men of the Nigeria Immigration Service since May 2015.

Citizens who have received training, have been documented, issued a service number, and so on can never be referred to as applicants because they employees of the Service.
THE FACTS ARE UNDENIABLE

Second, the publication claimed that the #NigeriaImmigration2000 appointment letters were 'irregularly issued' in February 2015.

The appointment letters of #NigeriaImmigration2000 were issued in May 2015 NOT February 2015. But we know as of fact that AFTER they were recruited and later 'dispersed' in August 2015, appointment letters have been irregularly issued through a backdoor hiring process in February 2016 that did not follow the laid down procedures #NigeriaImmigration2000 did.


The guidelines given in the publication are as follows:

1. Implementation of the CDFSIPB 'Age on Rank' policy
2. Drug tests screening
3. Document verification screening
4. Security checks screening.


This 'Age on Rank' policy (to place age restrictions/ceilings for ranks within the service), was first published on 25th May by the CDFSIPB. This was one full year AFTER the employment of #NigeriaImmigration2000 in 2015.

In a memorandum dated 13th June 2016, it was specifically clarified that the policy was meant for new intakes into the Service (after its enactment) and cannot be applied retroactively for officers and men of the Service.

It is therefore unacceptable to use the 'Age on Rank' policy, or any other rules or policies implemented to treat the #NigeriaImmigrarion2000 as new employees, employed later than May 2016 or any time later than May 2015, for that matter.

#NigeriaImmigration2000 were employed in May 2015. We also wish to say that it will also amount to graver injustice if their salary arrears for the past 15 months are unpaid. Or if any member is victimized on account of being at the forefront of this advocacy after all these months of suffering.

In this struggle, they have endured the scorching of the burning sun, their brows are sunken with sweats, their bones are weary and our legs are filled with blisters and yet here we are today because the long suppressed voice of #NigeriaImmigration2000 cries for justice and will not stop until we get justice. Mr President, we are here from across the federation in unity seeking for justice.

We therefore urge Mr President to mandate the Ministry of Interior; the Civil Defence, Fire service, Immigration Service, and Prisons Service Board; and the Nigeria Immigration Service to immediately:

1. Issue an official circular, reinstating with immediate effect, each and every member of the #NigeriaImmigration2000 without referring to or regarding them as 'applicants'; and without the retroactive 'Age on Rank' policy;
2. Issue immediately appointment letters signed and dated May 2015 to the 400 Assistant Superintendents;
3. Pay up all their arrears of salary and other emoluments and incentives from May 2015 to date and ensure that such injustice is never again repeats;
4. Offer unreserved apology for their unjust mistreatment for one whole year;
5. Desist from any action that can be interpreted as hindering the reabsorption, and/or victimizing any member of #NigeriaImmigration2000;
6. Look into the issue of illegal, backdoor hiring in the Service.

Nigeria belongs to all of us.

Thank you.

IMPUNITY

very sick country m bro!

If CBN and FIRS illegal recruits are in their offices right now, there is no moral justification for the sack of these recruits.

Next in line will be the NNPC GT 2012 recruitment stalled till now, but illegal back door appointment has been going on since then.
We will later ask why our institutions are not efficient when nepotism, favouritism and tribalism has overtaken merit.

I urge all youths to join them in this fight, because next turn might be yours.

Pls where are our civil rights activists, I expected people like Femi Falana to take up these cases for these helpless youths.

I'm pretty sure you ain't one of the protesters cos even the way you write is irritating.
Dear, work on your spellings and quote me later cos I don't understand a thing you wrote.

Wow! There is absolutely nothing working in this country, the government is confused, the people they govern are frustrated. Really feel sorry for this guys here

How did we get to this point? Imagine I went to federal ministry of environment and FCSC to enquire about the job they advertised, the man I meant asked me who do I know that will push my application and I said nobody. Well, he said I should look for a senior director from my zone to influence it. The big question is must we know OGA @ D TOP before we get jobs in this country? How did the children of the influential persons got appointed into FIRS, CBN, NNPC? They now asked the children of the less privilege to apply for N-POWER and Police recruitment and this people @ d end of the day will now be protecting/guiding the influential children who are now in CBN, FIRS, NNPC etc... the masses they forbid to enta NNPC, FIRS or CBN?
God Bless Nigeria....

When was CBT conducted?? Is that even a question?

Ask anybody who applied for this this job in 2015 when CBT was conducted.

FYI, Dragnet was in charge of that stage of the process and exams were conducted nationwide. I know people who took theirs in chams city. I believe you know what they do in chams city...

Injustice doesn't have a second name, lets call it what is is. This guys were recruited on merit and obviously the powers that be are not happy about it. If these guys had Godfathers, do you think they will still be protesting up and down since all these days... more than a year now.

Abeg... call injustice its name!

This is not fair

Vacancy and Job Posting
Al this opportunity goes to Lagos state residents.
I'm here to share the good news from a reputable organisation who has made it their job to post applicants on Job. Just forward/send resumes to ostadaresource@gmail.com you could be lucky to receive posting on Saturday 20th of August or beyond depending on when we see suitable post.

Am a living witness to this act of impunity... We were trained for 4 months, we were thought how to use rifles, one on one combact, Nigeria Immigration Act etc. But on august 20 2015, a circular came from ministry of interior saying we were dispersed till further notice. No reason was given what's so ever

Like seriously? Guy, always try to ascertain facts before you speak out in public so that you don't end up looking like a fool.
Today it's them, tomorrow it might be you.

Dragnet conducted the tests...

Ask questions, it will help you go a long way in life...



#Peace

This is just so sad....Buharis cabal has employed their friends and relatives in their stead. Kwarraptian fighter in deed.

By the way, Aisha Yesufu is now in charge of this one too? Her comrade in arms, Oby nko? How far the Chibok girls saga, them don forget that one?

otokx:
Nigerians don't know how to protest, those people are not up to 500 so what are they saying about immigration 2000?

It's not so easy to travel to and fro abuja for a protest. This is their 3rd protest. They have been to Ministry of Interior, to National Assembly and now to Aso rock.
Getting the 2000 to protest is not possible.

I have missed you

Weapon of mass distruction?bros!

yrret:
Some even resigned from their jobs, while others borrowed cash just to make sure everything works out fine yet the government; after training this edible and gallant youths how to use weapon of mass destruction are pushing them to go home with heart filled sorrows and regret not minding the implications to the society.

Believe me; they will say no money to pay while the back doors remains wide open for their selfish interest.


How did we even get to this point?


Government is dynamic, I begin to wonder why this is different.

By the Time APC government finish with Nigeria, even the map of Nigeria won't be recognize.

I rest my case!

Change! Change!! Change!!!

movingforward:
Weapon of mass distruction?bros!

Yes na! U no how many 'nuclear, biological and chemical studies dey undergo?

U forget every Nigeria youth dey think deep than watin dey teach.

Example: if I enter class write 'REPRODUCTION' for board where your mind go go?

Even madam Oby Ezekwesilli is in solidarity with the #NigeriaImmigration2000. Justice must prevail, stiill at the gate of Aso Villa till we get back what belongs to us unconditionally.

They are still there

Roseey0:

I have missed you

Hehehehehhe...I don miss you too







I no sabi who I dey miss ooo

Protest continues today as all the recruits slept in front of villa
