The Nigeria Immigration Service says the passport of #EndSARS promoter, Modupe Odele aka Mochievous, was seized as part of a routine border assignment .
The Spokesman for the NIS, Mr . Sunday James , told The PUNCH on Thursday night that whenever a restriction has been placed on any individual , the immigration service is duty -bound to enforce it.
James said immigration did not seize Odele ’s passport because of her #EndSARS activities but because it was enforcing a restriction order.
He said , “ When there is a directive from any agency of government not specific, we have to enforce either entry or restriction of entry by anybody who has been directed not to be allowed exit or entry and as a matter of fact, we cannot as a border management agency , allow anybody who has been restricted from leaving the country to go out and we cannot allow anybody who has been restricted from entry to enter.
“ So, it is a routine assignment and it has nothing to do with End SARS . We are the lead agency for the security management of the border . It has to do with the restriction order which we are duty -bound to enforce. ”

The NIS had on Sunday stopped Odele from boarding an Emirates flight to the Maldives through Dubai .
Odele , who is a lawyer, was one of the prominent faces in the #EndSARS movement and gave free legal assistance to several persons who were unjustly arrested by the police .

Freedom of movement is enshrined in the constitution, you will need a court order to legally deny someone a right that is enshrined in the constitution.

Shameless government that turn every MDA to lying factory.

So tell us who gave the order?

Routine what? Infringement on the fundamental human rights is now legitimate order? The problem is not the legitimacy of the NIS to enforce such orders but who ordered such and to what basis? Impunity, lawlessness & tyranny everywhere under this regime.

The person weh thy give this order nor get name ....

idiots and stupid lies they construct, even primary six student knows this is a lie

Which competent court of jurisdiction issued the order

Any investigation should be carried out as fast as possible so she can have her lawful freedom.



Btw, why will she want to travel at this time

Many illiterates on nairaland.

Instead of you to write down your opinion and move on, you will be abusing people that don't care about your existence.

What is the essence of your abuse to a newspaper article. Is this not madness

In real life when you see this people, you can't do anything.

Someone's dad lying outrightly without shame

After all they were hailing you

they specialise in E- warrior.

what's the main reason why you seized her passport.. the guy man just dey beat around the bush .. and who gave the order....

Where is the reason?
Is she under investigation, has pending criminal cases, or funding terrorists?

Moe exposed herself to this rubbish. Can Nigeria seize UK or British passport?

This order just like that of Lekki shooting came from above, the question now is who is that 'above'? because everyone has denied being involved in it.

Shameless liars

talk na

A very silly excuse, I'm afraid. You've seized her passport, won't let her leave the country and have held on to the passport up till this very moment.
Her fundamental human right is been trampled upon by the govt, no one seems to give a sh*t about it
