NIS to launch emergency passport for Nigerians abroad
The Nigeria Immigration Service says it will introduce a Single Travel Emergency Passport (STEP) to replace the current Emergency Travel Certificate. The new biometric document will help Nigerians abroad with expired, lost, or stolen passports return home securely, according to Comptroller-General Kemi Nandap.
The passport, valid for a single entry, will be issued at Nigerian embassies and consulates as part of ongoing reforms to strengthen identity management and border security.
