UK re-opens Ikeja visa application centre

Lagos - The British High
Commission has reopened the
Teleperformance Visa Application
Centre in Ikeja following
improvements in the availability of
fuel.
The facility was closed on May 26
and could not reopen last Monday
as initially scheduled.
The Commission said shortages
being experienced across Nigeria
were seriously affecting power
supplies at the facility.
However, operations have now
resumed.
“After being temporarily closed due
to the country wide fuel shortage,
the Teleperformance Visa
Application Centre in Ikeja has now
re-opened,” the High Commission
stated.
Crippling fuel shortages during the
period the centre culminated in
business coming to a standstill
across many sectors of the
continent’s biggest economy, which
ironically, is Africa’s biggest
producer of crude oil.
