Immigration Website Faces Technical Glitches Amidst Passport Price Hike

The Nigeria Immigration Service (NIS) has announced that its online payment platform on its website is currently experiencing technical difficulties, just days after the agency implemented a price increase for Nigerian passports.

In a public notice issued on Friday, the NIS apologized for the inconvenience caused by these technical hitches, which are disrupting the online application and payment process for passports and other related services on the website.

This announcement follows closely on the heels of a recent price hike for Nigerian passports, a move that has sparked widespread criticism and frustration among Nigerians. Many citizens have expressed their displeasure with both the price increase and the technical issues now hindering their access to essential immigration services.

The NIS has assured the public that efforts are underway to resolve the technical problems on the website as quickly as possible. In the meantime, the agency has urged applicants to be patient during this period of disruption.
