107, 646 passports unclaimed, immigration CG laments
Comptroller General of the Nigeria Immigration Service NIS, Kemi Nanna Nandap has appealed to applicants whose passports have been produced to go for pick-ups at the various Passports Issuing Centres across the country.
The CG in a statement on Friday by Service Spokesman, Kenneth Udo, said 107, 646 produced passports are awaiting collection. “However, efforts made at reaching out to the owners have proved abortive”, the CG lamented. She therefore advised applicants to always provide verifiable addresses and phone numbers when filling their online passport application forms for easy contact.
Consequently, the CG directed that all Passport Offices in Lagos should operate on Saturdays between 9am – 2pm to attend to applicants coming for the collection of their produced passports only. “Therefore, those concerned are hereby informed to take advantage of this opportunity”, the statement added.
