The acting comptroller-general of the NIS, Idris Jere had ordered the service’s special task force to clear the backlog of passport applications at the Ikoyi passport office.

As a result, the Ikoyi passport office had extended its workdays to include Saturdays and Sundays in order to meet applicants’ demands.”

It was gathered that Ibrahim Liman, passport control officer (PCO) in charge of the office, said the Ikoyi office had put calls across to applicants whose passports were ready for collection.”

“As the PCO of Ikoyi, I will always work with integrity. I don’t have anything to hide, the office operates an open-door policy.”

Liman warned passport racketeers to desist from the act or be ready to face the consequences of their action.”

“NIS would not hesitate to discipline anyone found to be involved in defrauding or shortchanging any applicants,” he said.
