DELEGATION FROM THE EU PAID SARAKI A VISIT YESTERDAY CONCERNING THE RISE OF ILLEGAL MIGRATION FROM NIGERIA TO EUROPE.{PHOTOS}.

The number of criminal gangs that are now building up and seeing this as a commercial activity is quite alarming — therefore, we must put a spotlight on this to stop the illegal trafficking and migration of our people''.More photos below.
