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.

Netherlands wins, as Lithuania shines

The Netherlands team has recorded a win over Lithuania in Kaunas on Sunday, 7th September 2025, over the ongoing FIFA Qualifying matches, with a 3-2 victory.

However, Lithuania had a chance to shine during the match having recorded up to 2 goals.

Lithuania, who had come from 2-0 down to make it 2-2 at half-time, are the lowest ranked team in FIFA's world rankings (143rd) ever to score against the Dutch.

On his part, Memphis Depay broke the Netherlands' scoring records, by emerging the all-time leading scorer with two goals in their World Cup qualifier against Lithuania.

The 31-year-old, who plays for Brazilian side Corinthians, opened the scoring by turned in Cody Gakpo's cross for his record 51st international goal.

He then scored the winner, a powerful header from Denzel Dumfries' cross, for his 52nd goal in his 104th cap.

His former Oranje team-mate, Robin van Persie scored 50, the previous record, in 102 games between 2005 and 2017.

It's worth noting that Depay played for PSV, Manchester United, Lyon, Barcelona and Atletico Madrid before moving to Brazil last year.

He made his Netherlands debut in 2013 against Turkey and scored his first goal against Australia at the 2014 World Cup, held in Brazil.

The Netherlands are at the top of Group G with 10 points from four games after the win in Kaunas.
