Dr. Olubunmi Tunji-Ojo, the Minister of Interior, has announced plans to introduce a convenient passport delivery service for Nigerians. Starting from February 2024, Nigerian citizens will have the option to have their passports delivered to their preferred locations, including their homes and offices. Dr. Tunji-Ojo made this announcement during the opening ceremony of the International Week at the University of Lagos, themed 'Breaking the Borders of Partnership.' He emphasized that the passport application process would be streamlined to provide a more efficient and hassle-free experience for applicants.
As part of the automation efforts, the minister revealed that by January of the upcoming year, Nigerians would be able to complete their passport application processes online. This digitization of the application process aims to simplify and expedite the issuance of passports to citizens. Furthermore, the minister highlighted that through collaboration and partnerships with relevant stakeholders, the government plans to ensure that passports are not only processed more quickly but also delivered to applicants' preferred locations. By February 2024, this service will be fully operational, offering greater convenience to Nigerian passport applicants. In essence, these initiatives signify the government's commitment to modernizing and enhancing the passport application and delivery system, ultimately reducing waiting times and providing a more accessible service for Nigerians.
