The Nigeria Immigration Service (NIS) has paid its final respects to Nde David Shikfu Parradang, mni, OFR, CGI (Rtd), a former Comptroller General whose leadership and dedication left a lasting impact on the institution and the nation.

Born on September 6, 1959, in Pankshin, Plateau State, Parradang was a distinguished public servant with a career spanning over 30 years in the NIS. He held a Bachelor’s degree from the University of Jos and a Master’s degree in Public Administration from the University of Lagos.

Parradang served in various capacities across Kano, Lagos, Kwara, Enugu, and the Federal Capital Territory, bringing his wealth of experience and international training to modernize the NIS.

In a solemn tribute, the NIS honored the late former Comptroller General with a ceremonial 21-gun salute, recognizing his leadership, discipline, and integrity. The event was attended by dignitaries, colleagues, and friends who reflected on his contributions to institutional reforms and mentorship within the service.

Under the leadership of the current Comptroller General, KN Nandap, pcc, mmis, fsmn, the NIS ensured that Parradang’s farewell was conducted with dignity and precision.

Though he is no longer with us, his legacy lives on in the institution he helped shape and the lives he influenced. The NIS stands united in gratitude for his service, bidding him a final farewell with the highest honor.

May his soul rest in peace.
