From Everest Ezihe, Owerri
Mrs. Nkechi Monica Ezugwu, the immediate-past Comptroller of the Nigeria Immigration Service (NIS), Imo State Command, has resumed duty as an Assistant Comptroller-General (ACG) in-charge of Zone E of the service.
Ezugwu known for her doggedness and commitments to discipline took over last week from ACG Angela Ilo-Okoye, who’s due to retire from the service before the end of this January, 2024.
The handover took place at the Zone’s secretariat, which seems to have been sandwiched within Nigeria Customs Service property in New Owerri Industrial Layout, Owerri, Imo State.
It’s pertinent to inform that NIS Zone E which Ezugwu is expected to oversee, comprises of Imo, Abia, Ebonyi, Akwa Ibom Rivers and Cross River State Commands, with two training schools in the zone, one in Iheoma Orlu, Imo State and another in Ahoda, Rivers State as well as Oil and Gas Commands at Nfum, Cross River State and Onne Marine , Rivers State.
Ezugwu has hit the ground and she is already running with the ball as seen by the level of environmental sanitation she has personally embarked upon within and outside the two storey complex that also houses the zone and Nigeria Correctional Service, NCS.
The area before her assumption of office was bushy and over grown with grasses as reptiles like snakes and scorpios were intermittently seen within the areas of the building.
