Nigerian nationals residing in the United Kingdom on Wednesday morning stormed the country’s high commission in London to protest the long delay in issuing their international passports.
In a video on X, the angry protesters were heard lamenting how the Nigerian agencies neglected them for more than six months after they applied for the passport.
“Two weeks turn to six months. Enough is enough. No more delay,” one of the protesters said in the video.
The protesters were also seen with several placards calling for the immediate cancellation of extra fees imposed on passport applicants by the embassy.
“Nigerian passport is our right. Say no to $318 extra fee. Minister you promised us 2 weeks, it is 6 months now,” some of the displayed placards read.
