olivia__davids: “Don’t y’all read the guidelines before going for passport?”

holy_spireet: “Some of you will embarrass yourself even when you know it’s wrong. Eyelashes won’t allow the camera to capture your eyes and eye bag well. Not in Nigeria alone. Same wey you can’t take a passport photograph with a cap or glasses.”

abbyabus: “The guidelines are on the website, but you all want to trend. Every eke market day, “they asked me to take out my eye lashes” 🤣”

daintyrossy : “Did she not know before? It’s your identity no fake anything. Even nose ring not allowed lipgloss too.”
