Nandap said in her address at the graduation ceremony of the 12th Command Course of the Immigration Command and Staff College, in Sokoto that the new channel was designed to streamline visa processes adding that it was to also foster Foreign Direct Investments (FDIs) and boost tourism.

She said the organisation must embrace the reforms and implement effective internal control and monitoring mechanisms in order to effectively track the presence and activities of all foreigners in Nigeria.
