The Comptroller General of the Nigerian Immigration Service, Kemi Nanna Nandap, announced on Tuesday, August 6, at a joint press conference with service chiefs and security agency heads at the Defence Headquarters in Abuja, that the agency is monitoring individuals in the diaspora who are sponsoring protests advocating for an undemocratic change of government.

Nandap said: “We have diaspora sponsors, they are on our watchlist. They are watchlisted; any attempt they make to come into the country, we’ll be notified and they will be picked up and handed to appropriate authority.”

In response to ongoing protests, the Nigerian Immigration Service has also increased its presence at land and airport borders, deploying additional officers to ensure effective monitoring of entry points.

Comptroller General Nandap stated that the Service has also enhanced surveillance to prevent foreign interference in the country’s affairs.

Meanwhile, the Department of State Services (DSS) has identified some sponsors of the protests, according to Director General Yusuf Bichi, who was represented by Spokesman Peter Afunanya.

While declining to provide further details, Afunanya revealed that certain accounts linked to the sponsors have been blocked, with some individuals operating these accounts from abroad being closely monitored.
