He further underlined that with their captured biometrics as well as the state of the art recreational facilities erected in the six geopolitical zones across the country, the chances of criminals successfully breaking into any facility have been significantly minimized.

The majority of those deported, he noted, were from the Democratic Republic of Korea, Egypt, Sri Lanka among others.
