Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola, Minister of Interior, has advised Nigerians to ensure that their details in the National Identify Number, NIN, match the information on their application for a National Passport.
The minister offered the advise in a tweet on his verified Twitter account on Thursday.
Aregbesola also revealed that many passport applicants are experiencing difficulty arranging their names.
He wrote, “It is important also that your details with NIN sync with the data on your application. Any discrepancy will stall your application until it is corrected. The order of the appearance of the applicant’s name especially has been an albatross for many.”
He also stated that his ministry had implemented a tracking mechanism to assist applicants in tracking the status of their application.
