UK announces change in visa centre management in Nigeria

The British High Commission in Nigeria has announced a change of management at all its centres in Nigeria.
The management change was made known via the Nigeria UK Embassy social media platform, X, on Tuesday.
“The supplier of our visa application centres in Nigeria is changing. During this transition, some customers may submit and collect their documents from different locations. You will be contacted via email if this affects you,” the statement said.
The transition in the management change across the country would subsequently result in a change in the locations where applicants would submit and collect documents.
Applicants are advised to check their emails regularly for updates to ensure a smooth process.
While the centres in Abuja and Lagos will remain operational, some applicants might need to use alternative locations, according to the high commission.
The statement urged applicants to schedule appointments before visiting these centres to ensure a seamless process.
