All you need say is that there is a disparity but this is the reason why. Instead of concluding that there is no disparity at all even when you confirmed in your findings that there is indeed a disparity.

There's no disparity.

There are two different items each with its associated cost.

If availability determines you get product A at Price C, instead of Product B at Price D, that's not pricing discrimination or disparity for one product. It's simply an either/or situation for 2 different products at different price points.

Is this how they do the fact check by just contacting the officials? This is no fact check.
You should have go to NIS offices in the north (about 5 States), ask questions to those requesting a passport or those renewing, do same in the south.

That's investigation. It's not a one day thing by asking the officials. Because even if it's true, they won't admit there's any

The story has just explained how the disparity has been technically done to make it explainable.

Why can't the migration to the new version be done starting with select states from both the north and the south in equal numbers?
Are the old version passports still being issued in the north not valid?
Is it not thus much easier to get the Nigerian passport in the north than in the south?
Was there any, much less adequate, awareness for the selective migration process?
When they need money, they squeeze the south which they claim is not more populous than the north but when political interests are being considered then they begin to fly figures from God knows where.

Hello Mr Writer doing fact checking, it is still disparity done in all dishonesty. The explanation has been taken from books authored by rogues.

Nonsense fact check, you said there's a disparity because of the reasons you adduced and ended up saying that there's no disparity.
A simple check on the website shows a disparity posted here by several people above who verified shows a disparity.

I can see the effects of Ondo Indian hemp on the OP. He is mad with his lies called fact check

That's how they have been fact checking Peter Obi and Tinubu and end up with nothing

What was the reason for starting in the south,and not pick some states in the north, not even one northern state
I can tell you that their is no enhanced bullshit anywhere

It's the same passport, they simply say this because you can't hold them to anything tangible

Am not sure it's the government increasing the price.. It's the officials that are racketeering it.
Same goes for drivers license too.
Then it's not because of the high demand in the south rather the agency officials are committing crimes on southerners. Of course EFCC does not have time for these kinds of cases

That is very true. Most youth corpers that are posted to the north usually use the opportunity to obtain their passport. As of last two years, it will only cost u 27k in sokoto and kebbi cos I was around there at that time. Around the same time it is around 50k in Lagos depending on ur channel of processing it.
is this official Price if u choose to use agents na u Sabi na official Price new enhanced passport is 25k there's one 35k all five years validity ten years validity is 70k

You obviously did not read the sh’tty fact-check.
The excuse proferred about some passports possessing enhanced security features is untenable. The fact is there is a disparity and it’s unacceptable.

Like someone noted up there, why wasn’t the test-run for the new one done in the north, or at least have some northern states included?

What type of nonsensical reportage is this? Something you actually verified but was only given unconvincing evidence. Why was there no centre has been upgraded up north since 2019? Why is the north always favoured over her southern counterpart? And you want this country to move forward. I don't blame them but the southern leaders who are selfishly selling us for morsels of bread.
