Tunji-Ojo disclosed this in a statement through his official X handle.
The Minister stressed that the commencement of automated passport applications is possible starting from January 8, 2024.
He wrote: “Today, I declared open the training on automated passport application for Passport Control Officers and Enrolment Officers of the Nigeria Immigration Service.
