The Nigerian government has installed 30-second biometric clearance gates for the Nigeria Immigration Service (NIS) at all international airports across the country to ensure effective and efficient management of international passengers.
The gates can screen and clear a passenger within 30 seconds without any interface or contact with immigration personnel. The facilities will be ready in Lagos, Port-Harcourt, Kano, Abuja, and Enugu in March.
The Advanced Passenger Information System (APIS) and Command and Control Centre facilities have been integrated to add another layer to the national security architecture.Â
The efficiency of the services provided by the NIS determines the security outlook as a nation, and the more gates at the airports, the easier it would be for passengers to be cleared.
