President Bola Tinubu has confirmed the appointment of Wura-Ola Adepoju as the substantive comptroller-general (CG) of the Nigeria Immigration Service (NIS).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Adepoju reportedly disclosed the development to staff of the NIS during the comptroller-general\u2019s parade on Wednesday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cYou may also wish to know, that through the grace of God and by the benevolence of the present government, I have been confirmed as a substantive comptroller-general of immigration,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She added that the date for decoration would be announced soon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Anyanwu Ifeanyi, spokesperson for the NIS, confirmed the development to newsmen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cYes, she has been confirmed as comptroller-general,\u201d he said in a text message.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On May 29, Adepoju was appointed acting CG, replacing Isah Jere whose tenure expired on May 29.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Stakeholders had commended the appointment of Adepoju as the first south-western, female acting comptroller-general of the NIS, describing it as historic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The stakeholders said the appointment will inspire female officers to give the best to their careers in hopes of reaching the peak.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Yoruba Heritage Group had also lauded Tinubu for the appointment, commending him for \u201cbreaking the jinx\u201d by allowing a Yoruba person in the position.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The group had also appealed to Tinubu to confirm Adepoju\u2019s appointment as the substantive immigration CG, adding that she has the competence and capacity to push reforms that will transform the service.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
