Second Day, 422 Served: UK Passport Exercise Rolls On

A total of 422 Nigerians were processed on the second day of the special passport intervention exercise in the United Kingdom.

The exercise continued at designated centres in London and Manchester as Nigerian officials attended to applicants seeking passport services.

The development comes as authorities continue efforts to process eligible Nigerians under the special intervention exercise.

Officials also disclosed that passports belonging to applicants processed on the first day had been dispatched.

The first-day applicants were expected to receive their passports on or before Thursday, September 10, 2026.

The second day of the exercise therefore brought the total number of applicants processed under the intervention closer to the programme’s wider target, although the latest figure released by the authorities was 422 for that day.

For Nigerians living in the United Kingdom, access to timely passport services remains an important part of maintaining valid travel and identification documents.

The intervention also highlights the importance of efficient consular services for Nigeria’s large diaspora population.

ValidViewNetwork reports that 422 Nigerians were processed on the second day of the special passport intervention exercise in the United Kingdom, with services continuing at designated centres in London and Manchester.

The exercise is expected to provide additional access to passport services for Nigerians who require enrolment or related documentation.

ValidViewNetwork reports that the early dispatch of passports processed during the first day signals an effort to move beyond enrolment and ensure applicants receive their documents within the stated timeframe.
