Renewing expired Nigerian passport

He wrote:

"I'm tired of renewing my Nigerian international passport."

Emmie was unhappy that his Nigerian passports went to waste, and he could not use them to get a visa to relocate.

He prayed that the new one he just acquired would help him get a visa to move abroad.

Emmie said he might not be alone as it appears many Nigerians acquire passports for local identification only and not to travel abroad.
