Comrade Abba Moro, Minister of Interior |
The
Federal government has reopened all the country’s sea borders barely a day
after closing them down along with all land borders ahead of Saturday’s
Presidential election.
Minister
of Interior, Abba Moro disclosed this Thursday while speaking with the media
after the commissioning of Koto- Karfe Medium Prison.
He
said that the Federal government had received counsel that the action was going
to affect the country’s economic activities at the sea ports.
Moro
however, assured that officers and men of the Nigeria Immigration Service have
been directed to effectively monitor movements in and out of the country’s sea
borders before, during and after the election.
The Nigerian government, in
a statement on Wednesday had directed that all Nigeria’s land and sea borders
be closed from 12.00 mid night Wednesday 25th March, 2015 to 12.00 mid night of
Saturday 28th March, 2015.
