Army, immigration strengthen border security in Yobe

The Nigerian Army and the Nigerian Immigration Service have pledged to strengthen their collaboration on border security, migration management, and responses to emerging threats in Yobe State. The commitment was made during a meeting between Brigadier General Edet Effiong, Commander of the Headquarters Sector 2, Joint Task Force North East, and Comptroller IZ Abubakar, the newly posted Comptroller of the NIS Yobe State Command.
