Mu’azu gave this charge when the Assistant Comptroller General Zone C, Dr. B. A. Brown paid him a courtesy call at the Government House. He said the immigration department has an important assignment before it in ensuring the safety of the nation’s boarders from illegal alliens. The governor noted that although his state does not share boarder with any country, the need to safeguard the boarders could not be over-emphasised. While appreciating the effort of the officers of the immigration in regulating the entrance of foreigners in the country, Mu’azu urged them not to relent in their effort in ensuring that only those with genuine documents are allowed entrance to the country. In appreciation of their effort, Mu’azu donated a 18 seater bus to them to enable them perform their duties. He assured them of the determination of his administration to assist them in discharging their responsibilities. The assistant comptroller general of immigration praised the effort of the governor in transforming the state, noting that Bauchi under Mu’azu has witnessed great transformation and has impacted positively to the people. Brown said the provision of electricity especially in the rural areas would help in booasting the establishment of small scale industries in the state as well provision of small business. He added that beside, the security in the state has attracted new investors. This, Brown said would help to develop the state industrially. The assistant comptroller noted that the visit of former heads of state was a reflection of Muazu charismatic and unbeatable performance. He requested for allocation of land to build office, houses and staff quarters for officers and men. He appealed to the governor to consider immigration officers and men in the state allocation of seat to religious pilgrimages.   Copyright� 2004. All Rights Reserved.
