Plateau State Governor Caleb Mutfwang has hosted the state Comptroller of the Nigerian Immigration Service (NIS), CIS Mary U. Abang, at the New Government House in Jos. The security engagement focused on establishing a strategic partnership to strengthen border management, improve intelligence sharing at the grassroots level, and launch joint operations to monitor remote mining sites where undocumented foreign nationals are illegally operating.
Unmonitored state boundaries, undocumented migration, and illegal mining operations fuel regional insecurity, cause severe environmental degradation, and lead to massive revenue leakages for both state and federal governments. Coordinating state surveillance with federal immigration assets allows the state to apprehend and deport violators, secure public mineral assets, and prevent transnational criminal activities.
This defense partnership highlights a highly strategic, intergovernmental approach to territorial monitoring, law enforcement, and natural resource protection. By providing operational support, motorcycles, and patrols to federal officers to access remote mining communities, the administration secures its borders and protects its economic interests.
