30 illegal migrants from Benin, Congo arrested in Ogun
The Nigeria Immigration Service (NIS), Ogun State Command, has arrested and paraded 30 young illegal migrants.
The State Comptroller of NIS, Abosede Olayemisi, said the illegal migrants from Benin and Congo were also involved in defrauding fellow migrants.
She said they were arrested in Abeokuta while defrauding their fellow nationals with promises of non-existent businesses.
She explained that, “They are 30 in number. We apprehended them at their office where they gathered and were doing an illicit business. They are defrauding fellow foreign nationals by bringing them in and collecting money from them. They promised them employment in Nigeria.
“After taking money from them, they threw them to the streets. The next thing is to repatriate them to their home countries.”
