Acting Comptroller General of the Nigeria Immigration Service, Caroline Adepoju, has said the Service would open more passport offices in the Lagos State to curb delays in passport processing and issuance.
She further pledged to focus on passport issues and staff welfare as those are the two issues that have been the major complaints of Nigerians and NIS personnel respectively.
“The Ag. CGIS equally said she will adopt a bottom-top approach in tackling officers’ welfare and will start by meeting all cadres of staff to hear their genuine needs in a bid to hit the ground running with a blueprint that will be based on an all-inclusive needs assessment. “It would be recalled that Mrs Adepoju had served in various locations during her career in the NIS, the high point of which was her appointment as Deputy Comptroller General in charge of Finance, a position she occupied before her present appointment”, the statement added.All rights reserved.
