Nigeria’s first ever online application portal for international passports will be launched today by Interior Minister, Olubunmi Tunji-Ojo in Abuja. The minister held a demonstration session of the online portal on Friday with the Comptroller General of the Nigeria Immigration Service, Mrs Caroline Wura-Ola Adepoju. Also in attendance at the demo session were other key stakeholders and development partners.
The session availed the opportunity to present and critically assess the automated passport application process; while constructive criticism was also entertained to ensure enhancement and improvement of the system.
