President Bola Tinubu approves 18-month tenure extensions for the heads of Nigeria’s Nigerian Correctional Service (NCoS) and Nigeria Immigration Service (NIS), according to multiple outlets.
The reports identify the NCoS head as Sylvester Ndidi Nwakuche and the NIS head as Kemi Nanna Nandap. Vanguard and its cited details specify the revised end dates: Nwakuche’s tenure is extended to May 26, 2028, while Nandap’s tenure is extended to June 30, 2028. Daily Post similarly describes the approval as affecting both service chiefs for an additional 18 months.
While the outlets agree on the same president, the same two agencies, and the same extension duration, they differ mainly in the level of detail provided, such as the precise end dates included by Vanguard. Other reports focus more generally on the extension decision without specifying all dates. All accounts attribute the announcement to an official communication from Tinubu’s office.
