*_NSCDC ARRESTS 47 SUSPECTED FOREIGN NATIONALS IN NASARAWA STATE_*

The Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC), Nasarawa State Command, under the amiable leadership of *_Commandant Brah Samson Umoru_* has arrested 47 suspected foreign nationals, comprising 15 females and 32 males, in Mararaba, Karu Local Government Area of Nasarawa State.

The suspects, who claimed to be from Mali, were found in a building in the Kudnawi II area, of Orange Market.

The arrest was made possible after a tip-off about the suspected foreigners living within the vicinity, immediately action was taken and investigation was launched, which led to the arrest of the individuals. The suspects confessed to entering Nigeria through Ghana and had been living in the area for almost a month, claiming to be involved in network marketing known as Qnet.

The NSCDC worked with the Nigeria Forest Security Services, vigilante groups, community leaders, and market associations to facilitate the arrest and transfer of the suspects.

The individuals were later handed over to the Department of State Services (DSS), and subsequently to the Nigeria Immigration Service (NIS) for profiling and further action.

The NSCDC remains committed to ensuring the security and safety of lives and property in Nasarawa State and will continue to work with other security agencies to address issues of foreign nationals engaging in unauthorized activities.

Mali miscreants..

Tueeh..

If they could easily enter the country unchecked at the border, travelled inland through the myriad of police, customs , immigration and military check points still undetected, then our security is useless.

Abeg! How do you enter Nigeria through Ghana?

Except through a connecting flight, which I very much doubt was the case, Nigeria does not share any land border with Ghana. This is bad journalism.

Send them back to Mali and block the borders

See Sokoto state governor saying he has paid backlog of retirees pension allowance for 2026, 2027, 2028, 2029.

This is in the habit of welcoming those who attack plateau and benue States

God have mercy on Nigeria

What do you expect? Our border is very porous and wide open... Of course anyone can enter into the country as he/she pleases

Lol, and we get immigration officers that collect salaries every month, every day nah we dey hear border is porous, Instead of looking for solutions we keep acting like Cow

By road through Ghana and Ghana is an ECOWAS country

God abi na to buy gun license am keep
Honestly my mom called me today not to come spend Christmas with her because of funalins heads men who killed someone yesterday in ughelli Delta State
Na Mali nawa for jagaba o so no Christmas with love once because of immigrants

There has to be a way to solve Nigeria porus boarders. That's the first solution

We don't share border with Ghana..

Togo is ECOWAS. It seems you have not used the land route through Ghana before. Just try asking people that do. You will know that it's easy to enter almost all West African countries

I don't know them.
This people am looking at are not terrorist.
Please watch well.

I thought Mali has become a paradise, what are they looking for in Nigeria again.

They are also in my area in ikorodu, Igbe laara. Still this same networking job. NSCDC take note

lordm:

True, Mali was a former ECOWAS country now in a sahel block called AES alongside Burkina fasso and Niger.

Mali has border with 6 other West coast countries but not with Ghana ( Except after traversing Ivory Coast).

Just like Ghana doesn't have direct border crossing with Nigeria until Togo and Benin Republic is traversed.

Their mission here is very suspicious indeed (especially close to the seat of power).

These people are responsible immigrants joor! The Brororos who are killer immigrants from Chad and Niger aren't being arrested, it's these neat and good-looking people they are arresting.

All the Brororos aren't Nigerians and they live in forests within cattles, and they've turned to killers and bandits killing Nigerians. Go into the forests and arrest all the Bororos as deport them to their countries of origin with their cattle.

See something, say something.

From Ghana they got to Togo, from Togo to Benin Republic then to Seme Border

Ghana, Togo Benin Republic Nigeria, all are ECOWAS countries.

I guess they travelled by road.

I agree with you that there mission is suspicious.

Immigration and DSS must grill them very well. Just look at some of the faces. They look like terrorists.

They are plenty in Nigeria. It’s good they get documented.

If you wan catch them, always go to Ecobank. That’s their bank.

Unfortunately for them Mali is no longer part of ECOWAS, so no more free movement for them.

What or who are the people heading the so-called qnet company that bring undocumented people into the country willy nilly? They should be seriously dealt with......as if Nigerians do not know to do Network Marketing ??

Something fishy is going on. Those people are being exploited and the organizers should be seriously quizzed.

Meanwhile no picture is shown of the 15 females as well.

Early this year, undocumented Chinese migrated here enmasse, and have been deported....now Malians.
