Tech Impact On Nigeria Immigration Service

The Nigeria Immigration Service (NIS) is a critical institution responsible for managing migration, border control, and the issuance of travel documents in Nigeria. Its core mandate includes regulating the entry and exit of persons, issuing passports and visas, and enforcing immigration laws. In a rapidly globalizing world, the NIS occupies a strategic position in national security, economic development, and international relations. Over the years, the increasing complexity of migration patterns and transnational crime has placed greater demands on the NIS. Issues such as human trafficking, illegal migration, and identity fraud require sophisticated and proactive approaches. Traditional manual systems are no longer sufficient to address these challenges effectively, thereby necessitating the adoption of modern technologies. Technology has become a transformative tool in the operations of immigration services worldwide. For the NIS, leveraging digital solutions enhances efficien...

SHOCKER: German Nurse Admits Killing 100 Patients


 
A former nurse admitted on Tuesday, 30th October 2018 to have killed 100 patients in Germany, closing the case of the country's biggest, post-war serial killing spree.

On his first day of trial, Niels Hoegel, 41, admitted to killing 100 patients between 2000 and 2005 in northern Germany by injecting them with lethal drugs and trying to resuscitate them; an attempt that often failed.

When asked by the presiding judge, Sebastian Buehrmann if the allegations levelled against him were largely true, Mr. Hoegel simply replied "yes".

Mr. Hoegel is believed to be responsible for the death of more than 130 patients, but the cremation of more possible victims makes determining the exact number of victims nearly impossible as gathered by Rostrum's health correspondent. 

It would be recalled that Mr. Hoegel was first caught by a co-worker in 2005 when he was administering lethal drugs to a patient; a crime he received a sentence of seven years in prison in 2008.

In 2015, he was sentenced to life in prison after being convicted on two additional murder and attempted murder charges.

It's noteworthy that Mr. Hoegel’s trial is expected to end in May next year being 2019.
