Mr Idris said as of April, the backlogs in Nigeria have been reduced to 33,625 while the foreign backlog now stands at 9,661.

He said; “It is pertinent to note that between January and April 2022, a total of 478,650 booklets have been distributed across the globe, and I can assure you that more than 10,000 Nigerians have benefited from this initiative and it is still ongoing.

“Hungary and Romania participated credibly during the migration crises resulting from the ongoing Russia and Ukraine war. So we are making progress.”The acting CGIS said the launch of the enhanced electronic passport in some parts of the country and the United Kingdom has helped in no small measure to ease the tension created by the backlogs.

“The backlog at the other centres within Nigeria has also improved with the supply of booklets. As a result of the improvement, we have made the issue of clearance of sucking a top priority by ensuring the supply of a large quantity of booklets as well as closely supervising the allocation of these booklets to the passport offices.”

He said apart from the South-east, South-west and part of the North-central where the enhanced e-passport has been launched in the country, the next phase will be launched in the other parts of North-central, North-west and South-south, before moving to the North-eastern region.
