business owners
By Agency Report

The Lagos State Government says it
received a total of 74 applications for
naturalisation on behalf of the Federal
Ministry of Home Affairs within two
years.

The Commissioner for Home Affairs,
Anofiu Elegushi, said this in Ikeja on
Sunday during the 2021 Ministerial
Press Briefing to Commemorate the
Second Year in Office of Gov. Babajide
Sanwo-Olu.

Mr Elegushi said that 35 out of the 74
applications received for naturalisation
received by the ministry had been
screened and recommended to the
Federal Ministry of Interior for approval.

He said the ministry received
naturalisation applications from the
Lebanese, Americans, Europeans,
among others.

The commissioner said the government
was also in partnership with foreign
business owners who intended to
acquire the citizenship of being a
Nigerian via naturalisation.

According to him, with the partnership of
naturalisation and special immigrant
status, Nigeria, especially Lagos State,
stands to benefit from the foreign direct
investment.

”The immigrant business owners also
benefit by growing their businesses in
one of the biggest markets in the world.

”Application for Naturalisation and
Special Immigrant Status is a major
mandate of the Ministry of Home
Affairs. As a national matter, it is mainly
regulated by the domestic laws of
sovereign nations.

”The objective of the exercise is to grant
right of citizenship to foreigners who
have lived in the country continuously
for a period of 15 years and above with
investment interests.

”Special Immigrant Status is also a
means of granting Permanent Residency
to foreign national who marry a Nigerian
citizen,” he said. (NAN)
