Meanwhile, the Enugu state government has appreciated the UK authorities for the visa centre. The Secretary to the State Government, Chidiebere Onyia, in a statement he issued on Monday, commended the United Kingdom government for the development.
He recalled that the visa centre was part of Governor Peter Mbah’s earlier requests during the visit to the Government House by the UK High Commissioner to Nigeria, Richard Montgomery, in June this year.
The statement said the government received the news with delight and satisfaction, stressing that it would further enhance economic partnership and cultural exchanges between Enugu State and the United Kingdom.
The statement partly reads: “The Enugu state government, therefore, looks forward to a strong, mutually beneficial relationship with the UK, as the visa centre would help cement the relationship.
“The government called on the people, especially those residing in the South-East to avail themselves of the opportunity provided to file their visa applications in the state, saying the government would ensure improved security both to residents and visitors carrying on business in the state”.
