In a move to reduce the cost and inconvenience of passport processing for Nigerians abroad, the Nigeria Immigration Service has deployed a Mobile Enrolment Unit in the Nigerian Embassy in Madrid, Spain.

According to the Nigerian Ambassador to Spain , Dr. Okezie Victor Ikpeazu, the facility is expected to ease passport enrolment for Nigerians living in provinces far from Madrid by reducing long-distance travel, saving time and resources.

He stated this on Friday, when the Head of the Immigration Section, Mr Ayotunde Adigun, formally presented the Mobile Enrolment Unit to him in the presence of other Embassy officials.

Ikpeazu described the deployment as a practical, citizen-centred intervention that would bring essential consular services closer to Nigerians living across Spain, in a statement emailed to PerSecondNews by the Nigerian Embassy in Madrid, Spain.

He urged eligible applicants to take advantage of the facility once operational schedules are announced.

The Ambassador assured the Nigerian community of the Embassy’s continued efforts to improve service delivery and make consular services more accessible, within its jurisdiction.

He also expressed appreciation to the Comptroller-General of the Nigeria Immigration Service. and the leadership of the Nigeria Immigration Service for responding to the needs of the Nigerian community in Spain.
