The European Commission has said it will file a legal challenge against Malta for its golden passport programme.
The referral of the case to the EU Court of Justice comes after years of wrangling with Malta about tweaks to the scheme.
The passport allows wealthy foreigners to buy citizenship in exchange for an investment of about 1 million euros.
Brussels believes the scheme is in breach of EU law because citizenship is granted without any real obligation for the beneficiaries to live in the country.
Nigeria Immigration Service, NIS, has said it would shut the doors against use of foreign migrants for next year’s election. Spokesman of the Service, Amos Okpu, reiterated the federal government’s commitment in ensuring a free and fair electoral process. Okpu charged Heads of Commands and Formations across the country to upscale surveillance activities in all locations including Border Crossing Points to ensure successful elections.
