The Nigeria Immigration Service (NIS) has issued a stern warning to Nigerian youths who are considering leaving the country in search of better economic opportunities.
The NIS emphasized that such a move, especially when done illegally, can be extremely dangerous and even deadly.
Amid the prevailing economic downturn, the NIS acknowledged the global nature of the economic challenges but urged the youths not to fall prey to false promises.
Many Nigerian youths have been tempted by the “Japa Syndrome,” seeking to escape the economic hardships by leaving the country illegally. However, the NIS highlighted that this route has led to tragic consequences, with some youths having their organs harvested and perishing during the journey.
Nandap, a representative of the NIS, shared alarming statistics, revealing that over 1,200 youths lost their lives in the Mediterranean Sea and deserts last year alone while attempting illegal migration.
The NIS appealed to the Nigerian youth to reconsider such perilous journeys and urged them to explore lawful opportunities within the country.
The service emphasized that illegal migration is not the solution and implored the youths to be cautious and patient during these challenging times. (CONTINUE READING HERE)
