The Nigerian Immigration Service (NIS) says that hoodlums have broken in and stolen 6 e-passports from their Damaturu office.

Rose Uzoma, the Comptroller-General, NIS, announced the loss of six e-passports by the agency.

The passport numbers were listed as AO2915421, AO2915422, AO2915423, AO2915428, AO2915472 and AO2915473

The statement warned that any person found in possession of the e-passports numbers would be apprehended and prosecuted. It also advised those interested in acquiring e-passports to visit any of the agency’s passport offices in any state.
