A United States-based innovator and tech entrepreneur, Prof. Ndubuisi Ekekwe has recounted how he got a passport for his son within minutes in the Nigerian Embassy in Washington, DC, unlike in the past when it would have taken months.
He made this known in a statement through his X account, commending the Nigerian government for transforming the countrys embassy in Washington.
According to him, the Nigerian Embassy, which used to be like Terminus Market Jos, Ariaria Market Aba, and Oshodi Market Lagos, is now calm.
He said what Nigeria has done in the passport issuance system in America can be replicated in other areas.
Good People, I had a business in Washington, DC, yesterday and got into the Nigerian embassy to get a passport for my younger boy. When I went to the embassy, I found less than 12 people who came to possibly get a passport/visa. And within minutes, everyone was gone. The workers there were EXCELLENT.
