OGUN IMMIGRATION SERVICE COMMENDED FOR ROLE PLAYED IN ENSURING SECURED BORDER
The Nigerian Immigration Service, Ogun State Command has been commended for its role at ensuring that migrants from other countries vying to enter the country through the state during the last general elections were stopped from gaining access, as their safe passage could have spelt doom for the electioneering campaign.
The commendation was made today by the Ogun State Governor, Prince Dapo Abiodun, while he received the State Controller of the Nigerian Immigration Service, Comptroller Doris Braimah and his team, described the cooperation between the state and the service as cordial.
Abiodun who noted that the service rendered by the command was pivotal at ensuring that only those that were citizens were allowed to vote in the border areas, adding that the command rose up to the occasion to ensure that the borders were well manned and protected against external forces.
” I know without going into details what the service did, particularly around election period where we were worried about the influx of migrants from other countries to cause mayhem on the election day, your service rose up to the occasion and ensured that our borders were indeed protected and movement were curtailed,Only those that are citizens were those that voted in those border towns,” he said.
The governor while commending the men of the command for a job well done, said he believed that the level of commitment seen from men of the command would definitely be improved upon under the leadership of the new controller who recently resumed in the state.
He commended the Immigration Service for opting to have a passport front office in Sagamu, saying he hoped the office would be improved upon and made a full fledged office as the people of the town had done a lot to ensure the service was comfortable by building and donating a office for the passport front office.
” I want to commend the Immigration Service for the front office in Sagamu, that front office, I hope it becomes a full fledged office, our people in Sagamu, am sure you are aware, they built that office themselves out of their desire to have a passport office in Sagamu,” he said.
Abiodun who noted that the registration of foreigners to be embarked upon by the Immigration Service was of utmost importance to the state, added that the registration would aid the state government to have a better understanding of what it’s security apparatus should look like, especially when foreigners are involved.
Abiodun noted that the state would not condone any form of lawlessness, criminality and cultism, adding that his government would ensure that the state remains peaceful, as the state being the home to the largest number of industries in the country, would not allow any thing that would undermine it’s desire to continue to pull into the state more industries.
Earlier in her remarks, the Ogun State Controller, Immigration Service, Comptroller Doris Braimah noted that the command would play its role as a worthy partner in ensuring that the security architecture of the state was developed, adding that they would join hands with other security agencies in the state to ensure that lives and properties were protected.
She said that the registration of foreigners which commenced recently in the country would afford the state an opportunity to have a proper data of foreigners leaving in the state.
The Comptroller had in her team, DCI Sophia Bright, DCI Tajudeen Ogunkanmi, DCI Odaleje David, ACI Idowu Ayegbusi, ACI Murana Hassan and DSI Ishola Olurode.
Meanwhile, the Ogun State Governor has assured the League of Imams and Alfas in the state of his administrations desire to continue to give to the people good and qualitative governance.
Abiodun who made this known in his office, Oke Mosan, Abeokuta, while receiving the League of Imams and Alfas of Ogun State, said that he was delighted that the state was able to prepare for the Hajj exercise, despite that his administration only came in at a time when preparation ought to have reached a concluding stage.
Abiodun also disclosed that at a private meeting he had with the president, the president told him that he decided to honour the late MKO Abiola,because the president was overwhelmed by the fact that the late politician, who was a Muslim, ran a Muslim-Muslim ticket and still won the election, saying that President Buhari believed that if the late politician had become president, issues bordering on religious interference could have become a thing of the past.
In his response, the Chief Imam of Ogun State, Alhaji Liadi Orunsolu commended the governor for ensuring the smooth passage of pilgrims to the holy Land of Mecca, saying that the League of Imams and Alfas in the state would continue to support his administration.

Police Day 2026: IGP Disu Leads Nationwide Walkathon To Strengthen Community Trust
Police Day 2026: IGP Disu Leads Nationwide Walkathon To Strengthen Community Trust
The Inspector-General of Police, Olatunji Disu, on Tuesday led the management team, alongside officers and personnel of the Nigeria Police Force, in a nationwide walkathon to commemorate the 2026 National Police Day.
The event, held across state capitals and the Federal Capital Territory, formed part of activities marking Day Two of the annual celebration, themed “Community Partnership: Building Trust.”

Dr. Chris Okafor invokes divine retribution upon individuals blackmailing the Grace Nation church
Dr. Chris Okafor invokes divine retribution upon individuals blackmailing the Grace Nation church
… Affirming God’s omnipotence to unveil malicious schemes.
To be frank, the ability of Doris Ogala and her associates to withstand the arduous challenges set by Senior Pastor Dr. Chris Okafor of Grace Nation Global at the culmination of the Harvest of Babies 2026 conference, the church’s flagship event, continues to elude me.
It’s advisable not to offend a powerful spiritual leader like Prophet Chris Okafor to avoid potential consequences, as seen in the situation with Doris Ogala, who was rebuked by the prophet; can she rectify the situation through confession?
Insiders close to the man of God claim that despite relentless online bullying and blackmailing, the Generational Prophet remains resolute, stating that God’s power has been evident throughout the commission’s existence. The reason for this wonderful statement is found in the scriptures, “Upon this rock I shall build my Church, and the gates of hell shall not prevail.” The more falsehoods are spread about the church and its leader, the more God elevates the church and propels him to greater heights, he asserted. He emphasized that blessings and fruitfulness are antidotes to curses, noting that God continues to bestow blessings upon the church, including miracles and the gift of children, which is one reason for the grand finale of the annual family liberation program, The Harvest of Babies.
However, the man of God issued a curse on each person speaking ill of the church, blackmailing, and uttering all sorts of falsehoods against the church, declaring that if they refused to repent within a few days, the earth would swallow them and their family members, stating that they would be of no use to themselves, their families, or society at large.
The spiritual leader cautions his followers to beware of such individuals including Doris Ogala who may taint their faith, and urges them to treat these persons as emissaries of the devil, avoiding them altogether.
Recall that the 2026 harvest of babies concluded with a remarkable birth of a miracle baby boy to a woman on the third day of the conference, accompanied by the dedication of several other miracle babies, all to the glory of God.
