The Nigeria Immigration Service (NIS) on Monday launched the portal for online passport application in a move that is expected to bring succour to millions of Nigerians.
Monday’s launch followed a live demonstration session hosted by the Minister of Interior Olubunmi Tunji-Ojo who unveiled the functionality of the new system to stakeholders from across the country on Saturday in Abuja.
The launch put to pay the minister’s December comment that the portal was “99 percent done” and ready for usage.
