Passport Issuance In Nigeria must be improved

The Issue

Getting a Nigerian passport issued by the Nigerian Immigration Service has become a cumbersome and hellish process to say the least. The process is fraught with unnecessary delays and hitches, making it subject to  bribery and corruption. 

Getting a passport is a right of every Nigerian and it shouldn’t be made a market for the highest bidder. Nigerians are suffering. It's not right and this should not be allowed to continue.

We hereby call on the Comptroller General of The Nigeria Immigration Service and the Minister of Internal Affairs, Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola, to kindly review this process for passport procurement which is inflicting unnecessary suffering on  Nigerians and enabling corruption.
