The Nigeria Immigration Service (NIS) issued a warning to Nigerian youth about the risks of illegal migration and human trafficking.
The agency reported over the weekend that the economic downturn is a worldwide phenomena, not exclusive to Nigeria.
The Agency insisted that illegal migration was widespread because of the national economic and social crisis, but insisted that the “Japa Syndrome” embraced by young people in recent years was not the answer.
We reported that Nigeria was losing too many young people because they were taking dangerous detours. This was a warning issued by Adepoju Wuraola, acting comptroller general of the Nigerian Immigration Service.
Furthermore, during a sensitization visit to the District Head of Gwagwalada, the Deputy Comptroller General of Immigration in charge of the Directorate of Migration, Kemi Nandap, stated that many young Nigerians have had their organs harvested and died while trying to leave the country for promises of better lives.
She explained that the goal of the 60th anniversary NIS awareness campaign was to warn young people, their parents, and community leaders about the risks of illegal migration and human trafficking, particularly in the Mediterranean and North African deserts.
Some of those who made it to other nations, according to Nandap, had their organs harvested by people they had come to trust.
“Don’t be fooled, the global economic downturn is here to stay.
If you’ve been keeping up with the news, you’ve probably heard of demonstrations in a few countries. Therefore, it’s not just a problem in Nigeria. It affects the entire planet. Don’t leave, because we can only get our nation through this if you’re here with us.
Don’t be duped by empty assurances. Just ask the people who are trying to get you to follow them why they can’t even lift their own kids. They should have Japa with their relatives, like cousins and aunts and uncles. It’s not safe.
They tricked our young people into traveling across deserts and the Mediterranean, where some of them perished and their bodies were later washed up on its shores. “Some were taken out of the country where their organs were harvested,” she claimed.
