A storm of controversy has erupted in the UK’s Nigerian community over the new passport acquisition policy introduced by Interior Minister Tunji-Ojo.

The policy, which includes an additional $300 fee to fast-track the process, has been met with fierce criticism from advocacy groups and individuals who accuse the minister of exploiting his position to profit from the struggles of Nigerians in need of a passport.

The groups, including Transparency Nigeria, have voiced their discontent and demanded a thorough review of the claims.

In a statement, Transparency Nigeria emphasized the need for swift and decisive action, saying, “It is imperative for the government to act swiftly and decisively to restore faith in our systems.”

Social media has been flooded with outrage, with hashtags #OjoScandal and #CorruptionWatch trending as citizens express their frustration and demand action. One user commented, “This isn’t just about one man; it’s about the systemic issues that allow such practices to thrive.”

The allegations suggest that Minister Ojo is deliberately making passports scarce, forcing individuals to pay the $300 fee for the fast-tracking service.

This has led to accusations of corruption and exploitation, with many questioning the minister’s motives.

As the controversy unfolds, Minister Ojo’s office remains silent, but insiders hint at an imminent internal review.

The Nigerian government, already grappling with multiple fronts of public unrest, cannot afford to turn a blind eye to these grave allegations.

The situation has sparked widespread concern, with many calling for greater transparency and accountability in the passport acquisition process.

As the investigation progresses, all eyes remain fixed on the authorities to see how they will navigate and resolve this contentious issue.
