  1. I'm sure that the embassy is run effectively in Qatar. In London the passport office staffed mainly by Nigerians is a complete shambles. The visa office has been outsourced to a private company, the difference is very clear.

    1. I have observed this myself, generally Nigerians are unprofessional and disorganised. I remember walking through the door of the Nigerian high commission for the first time, it immediately felt like I was back in Nigeria. It was a mess, the staff were acting like they were sick and tired of being there. It was saddening, I realised we were far from being a civilised people.

  4. Abike, you need to visit Nigerian Embassy in the UK too.
    The Visa section are all Europeans, I was there on the day a Nigerian lady was walked out of the Embassy.
    I stood up for her.
    I mean, walked a Nigerian out of Nigerian Embassy.
    It was humiliating.
