According to the State of Lagos, 74 naturalization applications have been received in the past two years. Commissioner for Home Affairs Anofiu Elegushi spoke about this.

“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”.

Elegushi said 35 of the 74 applications were reviewed and recommended to the Federal Ministry of the Interior for approval. Applications were from Lebanese, Americans, Europeans and others.

The government is looking with the hope of this program as it will help attract more foreign investment to the country.

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