Reviews: Ashley Nwadigo “the food was so good! Service was also great! The restaurant was very clean as well. I would definitely eat here again.Brideba Tamaraukuro who opted for the delivery service option, had this to say “The food was amazing but by the time I was done eating it all nutrients were to refuel the time I had used to call customer service and wait for the food. I kept calling the customer service and they still couldn’t remember the correct order. The embarrassing part was when the delivery guy asked me for money due to the mix up at the office when I had already paid for the food before ordering.”
On his part, Miracle Emeka-Nkwor said “The attendants were welcoming and patient. The meal was also tasty and if you’re like me who can’t afford to eat much, you’ll have to request a take-out when you’re eventually full.”

Then the food as well was amazing and the crux of it was the manager came to check to see if we were comfortable. That’s exemplary service. Food is very affordable for the class and quality of service. Totally recommend I left full and happy.”

Omololu Ojomo corroborates Topmost’s position by saying “The love I have for Labule these days ehn! Their Amala is the best so far and their Ewa Agoyin and the sauce is just 100% The environment is also very neat and they observe all Covid19 protocols which is a plus. The only thing you may want to be conscious of is their payment method. They seem to always over calculate when their ringing you up. I’ve been charged for more stuff that I bought in the past but I’m always quick to catch stuff like this(the Nigerian in me) so you may want to crosscheck the receipt they give you when you’re about to pay.

Reviews – Olagoke Tobi said “The Ambience was great and when we went it was really empty and we had the waiter attend to us properly.
Here are a couple of things to note my last visit; the 25k platter is more than enough for 2 people.
the vegetable salad is pretty much grass with just lettuce and very little carrot.
the meatballs is spicy and you’d enjoy it.
If you don’t take alcohol (the wine in the platter) they can help with milkshake and juice (if they have) but I don’t think it translate in value to the cost of the wine.
If you are just 2, the 22k platter is fine.”
Chika Nzekwe, another customer of Spur Nigeria, said “I have loved every single visit to Spur because every meal has been a hit. Usually, I’d go for the jollof rice on every visit because I like my meals safe but i opted for a burger and it was the absolute best. If you’re a first timer at the restaurant, you should try any of the burgers. I had the cheese and bacon burger(double), it was nicely done and tastes great. The meals are moderately priced, the portions are generous and the ambience is warm and cozy. If you’re looking for a nice s”
The Nigeria Immigration Service (NIS) said it has created a Mobile Application for individuals to renew their International Passports from the comfort of their homes without necessarily visiting its offices.
The agency, in a video information watched by Investors King, which it posted on its X handle on Thursday night, disclosed that those who applied for passport renewal online get them delivered to their homes and other addresses they have chosen.
The management of the agency stated that the digital innovation is part of its continued efforts to serve the Nigerian public more efficiently and create a functional system that meets global standards.
Tagged: “A New Contactless Passport Application and Issuance Process,” the Nigeria Immigration Service (NIS) said as from November 1st, 2024, individuals who apply to renew their international passport will be able to use the mobile app and carryout the registration and application procedures from the comfort of their homes without having to visit any NIS office.
“Simply visit Google Play Store on your Android, App Store on IOS, and Window Devices and check for Nigeria Immigration Service Mobile App, click on it and download. You can also visit www.passport.immigration.gov.ng on your web browser.
“After downloading the Nigeria Immigration Mobile App on your mobile device, login on to www.passport.immigration.gov.ng, on your web browser; only use the following steps to get registered and apply to renew your passport:
“Step 1: Create a profile using a valid email.
Step 2: Complete eligibility test.
Step 3: Input your NIN and current passport number
Step 4: Fill out your bio data and upload relevant supporting documents such as NIN slip, certificate of local government of origin, birth certificate, among others.
Step 5: Proceed to take your biometric using your mobile phone fingerprint.
Step 6: Review all your information.
Step 7: Then, make payments.
Step 8: Finally submit your application.
“Now wait for your passport to be available and it will be delivered to your chosen address within the stipulated timeline,” the information revealed.
The NIS further explained how the procedures for renewal would be done in phases, stating: Phase 1: Canada – Nov. 1
Phase 2: UK, USA, Italy – Nov. 15
Phase 3: Nigeria & the rest of the world – Dec. 1.”
It added, “Thanks to the renewed hope agenda of Bola Ahmed Tinubu that cares for every Nigerian where they live, work and play.
“The Nigeria Immigration Service (NIS) with the supervision of the Hon. Minister of Interior, Hon. Olubunmi Tunji-Ojo, the leadership of the Controller General, CGI Kemi Nanna Nandap, committed to improving passport application processes and making life easy for all Nigerians.
“Please note that this new application platform is for Passport Renewal Only.”
Meanwhile, individuals who reacted to the new development commended the NIS for coming up with the mobile app for international passport renewal, saying it would contribute in making the process seamless and easier.
They however suggested that the NIS management expunge upload of supporting documents such as certificate of local government of origin and birth certificate since they have been included in the bio data earlier supplied during initial application for the passport.
One of those who commented simply identified self as @Justice_Israell, wrote: “Nigeria Immigration officers won’t like this because now they can no longer extort from citizen as every financial transaction is done online.
“I love this initiative. Nigeria immigration office is like a market place and this corruption is deeply rooted even to the officials at the top.”
“Why requesting for Birth and Local Government certificates for passport renewal? How did the person get his passport in the first place? Did they not use all these documents for first passport? This is not necessary, except you make it optional. Thank you,” another X user identified as @femoscorpion131 remarked.
Air Peace has denied plans to raise fares from Lagos to Abuja from N114,000 to N200,000 following a leaked viral report.
This report, published by numerous media outlets claimed that Air Peace would raise its one-way flight fare to ₦200,000 effective November 1, 2024.
This was confirmed by a senior airline staff member who wished to remain anonymous.
The source clarified that the memo was intended for private partners but was unintentionally leaked to the public.
“Our intention was for the memo to remain strictly within our network of private partners, but it unfortunately leaked.
“Indeed, the fare review will take effect from November 1, 2024,” Nairametrics quoted the anonymous source.
The memo reads in part, “This is to inform you that our domestic fares have been reviewed.
“The new fares are effective for flights from 1st November 2024. The previous fares remain available for flights up to 31st October 2024”.
However, a statement by the airline on Saturday, October 26, has laid the rumours to rest.
Refuting the viral claim, the airline said the report was false and not from the firm.
Air Peace emphasized that any adjustment regarding the firm’s pricing will be published via its verified handles and urged Nigerians to rely on these verified channels to avoid misinformation.
The statement read, “We would like to categorically state that this information is false and did not originate from Air Peace.
“We have not released any official statement regarding a fare increase as described, and any announcements regarding our pricing would only be made through our verified channels. We encourage our valued customers and clients to rely exclusively on these platforms for accurate updates and information on fares.”
