The federal government has deployed a dedicated passport intervention team in the United Kingdom to process pending, new, and renewal applications by Nigerians in the diaspora.
The team, dispatched by the Nigeria Immigration Service
(NIS) on the directive of Olubunmi Tunji-Ojo, Minister of Interior, is
scheduled to arrive in the UK on Monday and will work with the Nigerian High
Commission to facilitate passport enrolment and processing.
In a statement issued Sunday, the NIS said the team will
visit designated cities across the UK to conduct passport enrolment and
processing.
The intervention is open to applicants with pending passport
applications, new applicants, and holders of passports with less than one year
before expiry who wish to apply for renewal.
Applicants are required to present their completed
application forms and proof of payment during enrolment.
The NIS said it would release a detailed schedule for the
intervention, including designated cities, dates, venues, enrolment times and
other arrangements.
The service urged applicants not to proceed to any location
until the relevant schedule has been shared and to monitor the official
communication channels of the Nigerian High Commission in the UK for further
details.
