Nigeria Immigration Service (NIS) has raised an alarm over the emergence of a new sect called ACHAD Life Mission International, suspected of engaging in human trafficking and child separation.
Gatekeepers News reports that NIS did this in a circular issued by AA. Aridegbe, principal staff officer to the comptroller general of NIS, dated January 14.
The agency disclosed that the new sect has its headquarters in Kaduna state, while its leader identified as Yokana lives in Jos, capital of Plateau state.
NIS alerted all state commands, directorates, zones, and training institutions about the activities of the new sect.
The circular reads, “I am directed to inform that the intelligence gathered by the Service reveals the emergence of a new Sect called ACHAD life Mission International.”
“The intelligence reports that the Sect have their Headquarters in Kaduna, while its leader, one Mr. Yokana, lives in Jos, Plateau State.”
“It further notes that the Sect neither believes in Islam nor Christianity but preaches the restoration of the African tradition and support to humanity.”
“The intelligence further reveals that the Sect has been canvassing for members both within and outside Nigeria and is possibly involved in human trafficking and child separation.”
“In light of the above, you are requested to stay vigilant, and report immediately any sign of the Sect, and where possible arrest and revert accordingly.”
“This is for your information and strict compliance, please.”
