 Peter Obi kicks against Int’l passport fee hike


The Labour Party presidential candidate in the 2023 general elections, Peter Obi, has lamented the hike in International Passport fee.


In a post on his official X handle on Thursday, Obi said the obsession of this administration with putting a burden on the populace is becoming legendary.


DAILY POST reports that the Federal Government on Thursday announced the increase in International Passport fees.


With the new increase, a 32-page booklet goes for N100,000, while 64 pages goes for N200,000.

According to him, instead of making life easier, the government keeps shifting the burden onto ordinary Nigerians.


“It is alarming that the price of the international passport is higher than what workers earn in a month,” he wrote.
