UPDATE: @nigimmigration implementing a Migration Information and Data Analysis System (MIDAS) at 5 Int’l Airports.

MIDAS is a global real-time border management system developed by International Organization for Migration (IOM), & linked to INTERPOL & other watchlists.

#thread
Abuja International Airport (NAIA) was the first to launch, in November 2019. Details here on the @UNmigration website: rodakar.iom.int/news/nigeria-i…

Abuja Airport’s launch of MIDAS “represents the largest deployment of MIDAS at any airport globally, to date...” ✈️
“To date, the project represents the largest deployment of MIDAS at any airport globally & it will be implemented in 4 other Nigerian airports: Lagos, Enugu, Kano, PH. This marks a breakthrough for Nigeria which hopes to establish one of the world’s largest MIDAS data networks.” ImageImage

So I took up this challenge, and found (all open-source information, only requiring a bit of digging and following loose and un-loose ends) a family story that somewhere along the line tangentially involves Russia’s MVD (a KGB sister agency) and the CIA.

The famous, sprawling Ajao Estate in Lagos—and also Papa Ajao— are named after a certain Chief Joseph Adediran (JA) Ajao, a native of Aawe town in present-day Oyo State, who became a successful import-export businessman in Lagos. He was born in 1900 and died in the early 60s.
Chief JA Ajao was one of the biggest landowners in Lagos. All of the land that’s now Ajao Estate was owned by him. And plenty other land as well. If you Google his name you’ll find a number of land-related Court cases from the 60s and 70s, involving his estate.

#UPDATE
1)
 Saudi Arabia and U.S. assessments indicate there is a “very high probability” that low altitude cruise missiles, launched from an Iranian base near the Iraq border, were used in this weekend’s attack targeting Saudi oil facilities.
2)
 Saudi Cabinet:
This aggression is an extension of previous attacks on Aramco with #Iran-made weapons. Int'l community should take tougher stance.
King Salman of Saudi Arabia: KSA will defend its territory and facilities no matter where these attacks come from
3)
 Tehran-backed Houthi spox:
The near future defensive operations will be harsher and more painful if the aggression and siege continue.

Again, 88% of these accounts were hacked: old, inactive, weakly protected.
They could easily be frozen in bulk. 😐

Thanks everyone!

Its official...the next five years of my life will be spent as Director of a new @UKRI_News @GCRF South-South Migration, Inequality and Development Hub focusing on relationships between #migration #inequality and process of #development across 12 countries ukri.org/news/global-re…
