The Nigerian High Commission in the United Kingdom has announced a £50 refund for passport applicants who paid a £70 administrative fee during an ongoing intervention exercise. The refund will include a £20 standard fee, while the remaining £50 will be returned to the applicants. The announcement was made on the High Commission's website on Friday, addressing complaints from Nigerians about charges and difficulties experienced during the special passport intervention exercise in the UK.
The Federal Government had previously denied introducing additional charges, stating that applicants only needed to pay the official passport fees, excluding bank charges. The intervention exercise, initially scheduled to end on September 19, has been extended to October 3 in London and Manchester due to a high turnout of applicants.
