He wrote on TikTok:

"Behind me is the Nigerian High Commission in Canada. What I witnessed today is so surprising, I never expected it. Coming here to renew my passport and it takes less than five minutes. I think this improvement is commendable. We need to commend the minister of interior, Mr Tunji Ojo. I want to use this opportunity to remind our government that greater and better Nigeria is possible. As you improve in this area, I want the government to improve in other areas."

When asked how much he spent to get his Nigerian passport in Canada, Ademola said he spent 330 Canadian dollars.

According to Ademola, he got a 10-year passport for that amount.

When someone in the comment section said the system needed to be contactless, Ademola noted that it was a gradual process.

His words:

"How many countries have contactless platforms, even Canadians need to visit Service Canada to renew their passports...we are getting there gradually."

@Clara Kaycee said:

"How much is new passport and can we do online?"

@TMoney said:

"No, we don’t have to come all the way to Ottawa. They should make the contactless system easy for us."

@ajplus said:

"Man, you don't need to go to Ottawa joo."

@Lawee said:

"Yeah, I had an appointment last week and it was really fast. But what’s the point of them introducing contactless passport renewal that doesn’t work. I had to take days off work to fly down to Ottawa."

@uche70 said:

"I know several Nigerians who applied for passports through the contactless process in Canada since December/January 2024, yet have not received theirs, and it’s already the third month. So sad!"
