The Nigerian consulate in New
York says applicants for the Nigerian visa can now get it in 48 hours with the
introduction of the issuance of the biometric visa.
Tanko Suleiman, the acting
consul-general, who disclosed this at the commencement of the biometric visa
processing in New York, said the new process had simplified the issuance of
Nigerian visa.
Suleiman said with the
commencement of the biometric visa issuance, no applicant should spend more
than 25 minutes to complete his or her enrollment.
The federal government on Monday
commenced the biometric visa issuance, becoming the first country in Africa to
achieve that feat.
The Nigerian envoy said the
government has appointed Online Integrated Solutions Limited (OIS) as the
company to handle the biometric visa project.
Suleiman appealed to applicants
in the US to be courteous and orderly as the new system would finally address
any frustrations in obtaining the Nigerian visa.
“If you are given an appointment
for 1pm, your appointment will last for only one hour maximum for that day; you
can cancel the appointment if you know you can’t make it,” he said.
“However, if you come here an
hour after, your appointment is completely cancelled. Therefore, you have to
reapply because you are not the only applicant, there are other people.
“So once you cannot come within
that one hour, you will now have to apply for another time.”
Abdul Momodu, managing director
of IOS, said with the biometric system, there would be fairness in the visa
application process as every applicant would now be approved on a case
management system.
