NIS to Allow Nigerians with Expired Passports into the Country

By Omolola Ameen (Abuja)

The Nigerian Immigration Service says Nigerians with expired passports should not be denied entry into the country.

In a short post on its X handle, the NIS says an expired passport is a valid means of identification.

”We sent out a document (again) in this regard to embassies, high commissions, concerned parties and airlines in this regard”

”You can’t refuse a Nigerian (with valid means of identity – expired or not) into his/her country”
