Electronic devices are going to be set up at Nigerian borders to help curb the influx of illegal immigrants. The Minister of Interior, Retired. Lt.-Gen. Abdul-Rahman Dambazau, said that most of the internal security problems currently being faced by Nigeria are mainly due to the easy access weapons and drugs have into the country through borders. He said that Nigerian borders are very porous and that in itself is a great problem and it also gives way to illegal immigrants.
Dambazau said that the solution is to use technology in order to monitor all the borders.

He added that if the electronic devices are used about 50 percent of the internal security problems would have been solved.
