In order to obtain visa, many embassies in Nigeria require Married/minors to present an authenticated marriage/birth certificate stamped at Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MOFA), Abuja. Many Nigerians studying abroad require their certificate be certified at Ministry of Education Abuja (MOE).

Numerous citizens especially those that reside outside Abuja spend days to get these documents certified. Many lives had been claimed through accident on the account of getting a page document authenticated in Abuja. Some Nigerians on twitter this morning expressed their grievances and urged Nigeria Government to have those offices available at all States of Nigeria.

Mama @abikedabiri, @NigeriaGov is not fair to us. Every citizens have to go to @AbujaMFA / @FMENigeria
in Abuja to certify just a page doc.What is difficult in having similar office in every state of Nigeria like other countries of the world?
@MBuhari @ProfOsinbajo @NGRPresident

Fellow Nairalanders, what is your take on this?
