The Federal Government says plans are almost “ready” for the commencement of full contactless passport application and the delivery of the same to applicants via courier.
“Starting March 8, Nigerians will no longer have to come to our offices for their biometric,” the Minister of Interior Olubunmi Tunji-Ojo said on Monday’s edition of Channels Television’s Politics Today. “They can do it from the comfort of their homes and have their passports delivered to them.”
