The attention of the High Commission has been drawn to a video Clip making rounds on social media, giving a wrong impression that Nigerians go through a difficult and harrowing experience when they come to obtain passports and other consular-related services at the Nigeria High Commission,Ottawa.

The High Commission hereby wishes to state unequivocally that the mentioned video clip purportedly shot by the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC) in 2013 does not, in any way, reflect the current reality of the very positive experiences Nigerians have whenever they visit our office for passports and other consular-related matters.

For the avoidance of doubt, our website : www.nigeriahcottawa.comprovides passport applicants with useful information on our operations and various services.

In addition, with the passport processing structure presently in place at the High Commission, Nigerians with complete documentation are able to obtain their passports within a few hours on the same day of their visits to our office.

Member of the public are, therefore enjoined to disregard the visor clip in it entirely, as High Commission remains committed to sustaining and improving on its effective service delivery to Nigerians and all, it is, no doubt, the handiwork of mischief makers, who may even be envious of the commission landmark achievements made so far with regard to issuance of passports and consular services to Nigerians in Canada.

Thank you.
Nigeria High Commission,
Ottawa.

So they think that writing a thesis would make Nigerians think that they do a fabulous job at our embassies home and abroad?
