Minister of Interior, Olubunmi Tunji-Ojo has knocked officers of the Nigerian Immigration Service (NIS) for always asking people, especially married women to come to the headquarters in Abuja just to effect a change of name on their passport.
The minister who described the act as “Stupid practice”, spoke at a recent dinner with members of the Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu ABAT Media Centre and some social media influencers in Abuja.
Tunji-Ojo said there is nowhere in the world where women are subjected to such inhuman practice on account of marriage.
He queried whether immigration personnel in Abuja have more than one heads as opposed to those in the various passport offices across the federation.
According to the Minister, passport issue remains the least of his worries, adding that he wants more secure borders for the country.
He said as from March, the new passport reforms he is putting in place would ensure contactless biometrics enrolment in order to allow Nigerians do their enrolments from their comfort zones.
Announcing plans for a forum to unveil the agenda of the ministry for 2024, the minister harped on the need for knowledge transfer and training of officers on passport issues.
While urging Nigerians to keep faith with the Tinubu administration, Tunji-Ojo said the president has led the country aright and that as a minister, he would continue to give his all to Nigeria and Nigerians.
