Immigration jobs tragedy: President Queries minister, NIS boss



President Goodluck Jonathan on Monday queried the Minister of Interior, Mr. Abba Moro and the Comptroller-General of the Nigerian Immigration Service, Mr. David Paradang, over the loss of 18 lives during the NIS recruitment on Saturday.  The 18 died during stampedes at the venues of the NIS recruitment in different parts of the country. The deaths have generated national uproar.

 The presidential query to the minister and the NIS CG came as the wife of the Senate President David Mark, Helen, denied reported relationship with the consultants that handled the exercise. Mark’s wife, in a statement signed by the Special Adviser (Media) to the President of the Senate, Mr. Kola Ologbodiyan,  said she was shocked by media reports (not The PUNCH) of her involvement in the exercise. She said the reports were based on a rumour and “a mere fabrication of the imagination of those behind it.”
