Nigeria is reforming its immigration laws.

The Nigeria Immigration Service announced plans for the reform of immigration laws were last written in 1963. New rules are predicted before the end of the first quarter of next year. The country already opened 9 electronic passport issuing centers and eight additional centers are expected before year end. The older machine readable passports remain valid for the next three years.

See Nigeria: Immigration Services Reviews Laws, October 5, 2007, for more information.

the need for a wholesome review of Nigeria immigration laws cannot be overemphasized. the laws were made to achieve the neo-colonialist aspirations of the departing colonialists and their local successors.
