The Comptroller-General of the Nigeria Immigration Service (NIS), Kemi Nandap, has been honoured as a Distinguished Fellow of the Society for Peace Studies and Practice (SPSP).
Her induction took place at the 19th International Conference and General Assembly of the Society held at the University of Ibadan.
The event, themed “Economic Challenges and the Task of Building Sustainable Peace in a Globalised World,” celebrated her achievements in strengthening border governance and promoting national peace and security.
Speaking at the ceremony, Nandap thanked the Society for the honour and reaffirmed the commitment of the Nigeria Immigration Service to partnerships that will continue to enhance peace and stability in the country.
She also stressed the importance of academic collaboration and global best practices in addressing migration and border security challenges.
Earlier, during a visit to the Vice-Chancellor of the University of Ibadan, Prof. Kayode Adebowale, the Immigration boss proposed a partnership in Border Governance and Migration Studies.
In another development, Nandap met with heads of South-West border formations at the NIS Zone F headquarters in Ibadan and directed them to step up surveillance and patrols in line with the Service’s mandate to secure Nigeria’s borders.
