6 die in stampede at immigration employment test venues yesterday

A  total of 6 applicants have been reported dead from the different venues of the  Nigerian Immigration Service employment test held yesterday across the country.

The Nigerian Immigration Service decided to conduct a test to fill 3,000 vacant positions in the country and the number of Nigerian Youths that went to the various test locations was overwhelming. Below is a collage of the crowd at the respective venues of the Immigration Service Test carried out in stadia across the country.

The Abuja stadium which is to sit not more than 60,000 people had well over 80,000 youths and only one entrance to the stadium was opened for the applicants. It's being reported that at least six people died during a stampede at some of the venues of the poorly coordinated test. The dead are mostly from the Abuja venue, including a pregnant woman.

The alarming part is that these applicants paid N1,000 registration fee and there were over 2 million applicants...by calculation, that's about N2billion. Some people,  the Minister of Interior and Comptroller General of Immigration have to address what happened yesterday.  Meanwhile, may the souls of the departed rest in peace. Amen
