Nigerians living in Spain will find it easier to process their international passports following the arrival of a mobile registration facility. The Nigeria Immigration Service sent the Mobile Enrolment Unit to the Nigerian Embassy in Madrid to serve citizens residing far away from the capital city.
Nigeria’s Ambassador to Spain, Dr Okezie Victor Ikpeazu, received the equipment alongside other mission officials, according to a report by Punch. The Head of the Immigration Section at the embassy, Ayotunde Adigun, formally handed over the gear during an official presentation.
The ambassador explained that the intervention addresses the difficulties faced by citizens who previously had to embark on long journeys across provinces just to capture their data. He noted that moving the equipment directly to communities will cut down travel expenses and reduce processing stress for families living across Spain.
Ikpeazu commended the Comptroller-General of the Nigeria Immigration Service, Kemi Nandap, for approving the deployment. He praised the agency's leadership for paying attention to the consular needs of citizens residing outside Nigeria.
The ambassador pointed out that the embassy remains committed to making government services simpler and more dependable for all Nigerians in its jurisdiction. He urged qualified applicants to prepare their documents and use the mobile unit once the official movement timetable is released.
