The Minister of Interior, OLUBUNMI TUNJI-OJO has frowned at the many man-made hindrances regarding the change of passport data by Nigerians, especially married women.

According to him, it is a “stupid practice” to subject such women to the rigours of travelling to the Nigeria Immigration Service headquarters in Abuja just to effect a data change.

Speaking at a recent dinner with members of the Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu Media Centre and some social media influencers in Abuja, TUNJI-OJO said there is nowhere in the world where women are subjected to such inhuman practice on account of marriage.

He queried whether immigration personnel in Abuja have more than one head as opposed to those in the various passport offices across the Federation.
