Woman who tore husband's visa
The Nigeria Immigration Service (NIS) has summoned a woman who tore her husband’s international passport shortly after they arrived from abroad at the Murtala Muhammed International Airport, Ikeja, Lagos State.
The video of a woman went viral yesterday after it was reported that she tore the international passport of her husband immediately after they arrived at the Lagos Airport in Nigeria from overseas on Saturday, August 10, 2024.
The woman was heard, in the video, responding to some immigration officers with audacity after being asked why she tore the passport, saying: Is it your passport?
The woman was also heard telling her husband If you want to sleep there, sleep there, this is Nigeria, this is where you will be, as she held their kids' hands while moving out of the walkway.
Speaking on the incident via a statement on Sunday, August 11, the NIS spokesperson, Kenneth Udo, said the woman had been identified and invited for further investigation.
According to Udo, if the allegations are substantiated, the individual’s actions breached the provisions of Section 10(b) of the Immigration Act 2015 (as amended), with corresponding penalties outlined under Section 10(h) of the same Act.
This also trended:
Udo reiterated the commitment of the Service to upholding the provisions of the Immigration Act in the interest of national security and preserving the dignity and integrity of the nation’s legal instruments.
Any individual who contravenes this section of the law is guilty of an offense and can face a maximum of 10 years imprisonment and/or a fine.
