The Nigeria Immigration Service has honoured four senior officers who completed 35 years of service. The officers were recognised at a valedictory session in Abuja, where the service marked what it described as their meritorious careers before retirement.

The Nigeria Immigration Service has honoured four senior officers who are retiring after 35 years of service. The officers were recognised at a valedictory session in Abuja, according to Punch Nigeria. The service described their careers as meritorious.

The supplied report does not name the four officers or state the positions they held during their time with the immigration service. It also does not provide details of the awards or other forms of recognition presented at the event. The ceremony marked the officers’ retirement after more than three decades with the Nigeria Immigration Service.

No statements from the retirees, senior officials or guests at the session were included in the available material. The report gives no further information about the officers’ individual achievements, assignments or future plans. It records only that the service held the Abuja valedictory session to honour four senior officers for their 35 years of meritorious service.

The event therefore served as a formal recognition of the officers’ long service as they leave the organisation.
