it has been revealed why Nigerian officials gave Ahmed Al-Assir, a top ISIS terrorist a Visa into the country. Radical Lebanese Islamic cleric, Ahmad Al-Assir, who was arrested last week as he attempted traveling to Nigeria, got an entry visa into Nigeria because the country’s embassies do not capture applicant's’ biometric data, an official of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
Biometrics cover a variety of unique identifiable attributes of people including fingerprint, iris print, hand, face, voice, gait or signatures, and are used for identification and authentication. The foreign affairs official, who spoke on the condition of anonymity, said with the surge of security breaches and religious fundamentalism, biometric capturing has become a norm yet, Nigeria, currently battling Boko Haram insurgency, has failed to utilise the technology.
“While the measure tends to pre-empt influx of terrorists instead they (sic) depend on the use of stop list for potential visa applicants,” the official said. He continued, “If we have a bank for storing the number of personal data which should be distributed to all our embassies; the prevailing spate of insecurity in the globe which has gone beyond just the antiquated stop list method would be checkmated.” The official revealed that the antiquated list which Nigerian embassies rely on are not even backed with photographs or fingerprints.

Nigeria and its stupid leadership.
i know if given the chance, you can give us 1001 reasons.
by you have been capturing the finger print of millions of Nigerians without even knowing how to use them.
BVN, DRIVER'S LICENSE, INTERNATIONAL PASSPORT, PVC, and ETC.
common sense could have told you that, only one of these is enough.
