An online petition calling for the sack of the Minister has had no fewer 20 Nigerians who have signed the petition.
“Sixteen Nigerian youths out of 700,000 died in stampede at several cities in Nigeria on Saturday 15 March, trying to write a test to qualify for one of the 5,000 vacancies in the Nigerian Immigration Service, under the supervision of Abba Moro.
“Mr. Moro must be made to take responsibility for the shambolic test and what looks like a job scam advertised by a department under his watch”, said the online petition.
The Minister who blamed the death of the Nigerians as a result of impatience was yesterday summoned by President Jonathan.
The Vice President of the Nigeria Labour Congress, Isa Aremu who is among those who want the Minister to be sacked said the death of the Nigerians was as a result of “poor management of crowds”.
Aremu who lead a protesters to the NIS office in Kaduna yesterday said “The most honourable thing for him is to resign. The president should take action so as to prevent shameless exhibition of incompetence and non-service delivery by some of his ministers.”
“We need a commitment that NIS will stop this serial killing of Nigerians,” he said.
