Open Letter To President Jonathan By A Concerned
Immigration Officer.
The President,
Federal Republic of Nigeria
Aso Rock
Abuja.
CC:
Senate President
Committee on Interior
Head of Service
Sir,
SAVE OUR SOULS-"RE: SUPERVISION OF
NIGERIAN IMMIGRATION SERVICE BY COMRADE
PATRICK ABBA MORO-MINISTER OF INTERIOR"
It is with a heavy and troubled heart that we
have taken the decision to write this piece and with
every due respect to your office with the believe
that we shall get a fair hearing also. This writing
would not have been necessary if the minister of
interior-Abba Moro discharging his duties without
fear or favour, or not contravening the constitution
of the federal republic of Nigeria, the provisions of
the federal character commission and the workings
of the Civil Defence, Fire, Immigration and Prisons
Services Board.
We are deeply concerned too that the actions and
inactions of the Minister has made the Nigeria
Immigration Service a laughing stock in the
committee of M.D.A(s) thereby causing physical,
psychological and mental tortures that has
produced premature deaths, depression and near
suicide.Perhaps, it may result in a worst scenario of
"serious conflicts" within the agency.
His actions/inactions pertaining to his style of
supervision at a glance and in depth are at variance
with what should be normal in the Public Service
and bothers mainly on: RECRUITEMENT, POSTINGS,
PROMOTION and a few other areas where under
his
watch things have gone awry, right now, officers
and men of the Nigeria Immigration Service are at
lost, wondering whether it was a crime to join the
service and serve their fatherland-NIGERIA.
RECRUITMENTS: Reference to the guidelines for
appointment, promotion discipline and general
purposes-Revised edition issued by the Civil
Defence, Fire, Immigration and Prisons Services
Board in July-2013, recruitment is to be segmented
and be flexible that is the board is to delegate the
recruitment of officers of CONPASS 03-07 to the
services with the necessary guidelines while the
board handles recruitment for officers from
CONPASS 08-16.
This has not and never happens under Moro's
watch. Minister Moro runs a one man riot squad-
recruits from his office, sends names of those he
has hired to Immigration, then to the board-
wickedly, labels it "replacements" Replacements of
what? Were there officers who have been removed
or that have resigned their appointments? How
come the service does know .These recruits hardly
meets the parameters/specification for appointment
into a sensitive agency such as Immigration.
Aside from this, the compositions of those
"recruited" are always lopsided with a greater
percentage from his home-state of Benue. Others
states are always short-changed of their quota no
matter the situation.
Secondly, the laws establishing the board
made no provision for the use of ministerial aides
as it is practised or the use of consultants as
evident in the last recruitment exercise where
scores lost their lives in the bungled process. We
the officers were only informed about the
recruitment four (4) days to the exercise and no
provisions were made to conduct the exercise and
more so, the N1,000 paid by applicants was not
paid into any Immigration account or federal
government account, the consultant was the
beneficiary and what happens to the money, no one
knows.
Thirdly, positions that are to be filled should be
determined by the CGIS-Comptroller General of
Immigration Services and not outsiders. The
consultant advertised for Assistant Superintendent
Cadre, Assistant Inspector and Immigration
Assistant 3, looking inward, we need more of
Immigration Assistant 1, 2 and 3 than what was
advertised and the requirements for each position
mixed up.
Lastly these recruits also known as
"replacements" will just trickle to the various
Immigration formations for documentations, partake
in nominal orientation exercise and are left there
"UNTRAINED" for even more than between 12-18
months committing all kinds of miscleamanors
which we have never known all because Super
Minister is their anchor.
In all, if you don't know the Minister or any of
his "cronies"- you cannot have a job in Immigration
and the board is just a rubber-stamp and the
service chiefs (CGIS) are not just figure heads but
dumb watchdogs that are unable to bark.
POSTINGS: Moro, our Super Minister has
descended so low and short of expectations of a
public officer of his own calibre to meddle into the
issue of postings, transfer or staff disposition he is
always at war with whoever sits as the CGIS over
where "HIS PEOPLE" are posted to perform duties.
In Immigration,THE FEAR OF MINISTER (MORO) IS
THE BEGINNING OF WISDOM.
In a situation where the Minister determined who
becomes a PCO-(Passport Schedule Officer) over
the choice of the Comptroller General who would
view suitability, performance and work knowledge
is of great concern to us and nearly 75% of the
postings comes from the Minister's office and its
very nepotism in outlook.
To cap it all, the Minister collects Estacode
allowance and other travel expenses from the
federal Government to "supervise passport
issuance at our embassies"-popularly called
"Intervention". What is the duty of the CGIS or
DCGIS (passports) or any other person delegated to
perform this assignment, Is the comptroller General
not competent enough to deploy his officers
wherever and whenever is necessary without the
overbearing influence or hijacking of the daily
administration of the service. A typical example is
officers of Benue stock who occupy the following
positions:
PASSPORT OFFICE-------------FESTAC
PASSPORT OFFICE-------------BENIN
PASSPORT OFFICE-------------BENUE
PASSPORT OFFICE-------------SOUTH AFRICA
COMPTROLLER-------------LAGOS COMAND
COMPTROLLER-------------OYO STATE COMAND
Just to mention but a few, without recourse to
common sense and fairly play. Immigration
commands are full of officers loyal to Super Moro
who disobey directives and staff orders just
because he is there to support them. From the list
those from some state are marginalized. In state
like Bayelsa, Ekiti, Ondo, Taraba there's no
Comptroller, ACG and DCG, Akwa-Ibom has one
comptroller no ACG and DCG.
PROMOTIONS: Right from his assumption on duty
was full of abnormalities e.g. promotions interviews
carried out once and foot dragging in the release of
the result. The FF are the observations his watch.
1. No seniority observed at all, no date of last
promotion, no state of origin. All these are to enable
his favourites to be placed above successful
officers who are due and performed creditably well
in the exams.
Differentials in the typographical characters in the
promotion list. Some are small, capital and mixed.
List published/released is different from the one
worked upon by the board, hence alot of missing
names.
Inconsistence in the Promotions, collapse of
seniority as every gets the same effective date.
Promotion of officers who are not due for promotion
while weeding out those due.
None observation of federal character as his whom
state is highly favoured (Idomas)
Officers spend between 7-12yrs before being
promoted thereby promoting; indiscipline,
breakdown of chain of command and espirit-de-
corp, frustration, depression, death from heart
attack-every promotions is followed by casualties
e.g. Late Mr. Odili who died of heart attack after the
release of promotion for 2012.
Petition mailing has become the order of the day
and officers jostle to catch the atheling of the board
or people in Ministers good books or office with
those connected to the later always having upper
hands.
Then why was the so called board established?
What do the statutes say on Recoy welfare and
Promotion?
What role is given to the Minister as regards to his
supervising power, which category of officers can
be employed at the state command by the service
Headquarters, by the board?
Does the Minister have the power to remove the
Secretary/Director of the board or obstruct/
delegate the secretary's duties to another person?
What does the civil service rule say as regards to
appointment and recruitment of officer?
OTHER ISSUES
1. None release of funds to the service to operate
smoothly.
2. Unnecessary bottle necks in the issuance of
quota and other facilities to expatriates and to
deserving origins.
3. Delaying in granting of citizenship to applicants
that have scaled through screening and processing
thereby causing backlogs in the exercise and letting
the applicants to lose faith in the whole process.
We should maintain what is right and do what is just
for God's justice will soon come there's no justice
in Nigeria Immigration Service (NIS). The injustice
perpetuated by ABBA MORO PATRICK has sinned
against Immigration families.
He silences the right of the afflicted officers and
threats falls into contempt at will Abba does not
have a conscience for consequences.
I know Mr. President has a lot to do but we
plead with him to use his good office to set up a
panel to investigate what is happening in
Immigration.

shame on d enemies of d truth. Edmund will soon be back online

After the indefinite suspension of this great journalist for standing at the side of truth, We don't know where he is now.
Edmund was suspended on June 7 for exposing the corrupt practices of the present government in Oyo state as regards giving Alaafin a contract which the money was embezzled by both parties.
I am using this opportunity to call on good media establishment to employ this great journalist and save him away from a corruption -entrenched station like Splash fm.
Attention: BBC, VOA, RAYPOWER, STAR FM

some FMCG in Nigeria are worse than this. remember d stupid Lebanese boss dat almost killed his worker. I know 1 FMCG in an estate in Ipaja dat d MD sacks d employees 4 no clear cut reason. salaries r deducted arbitrarily for fun. It is well
