A UK-based Nigerian legal practitioner, Baron Chymaker, says he has formally begun the process of renouncing his Nigerian citizenship.
Chymaker said his lawyer in Nigeria had confirmed that his application had been submitted to the Office of the Secretary to the Government of the Federation, alongside the required fees.
He disclosed this in a post on X on Thursday.
“I have today received a confirmation from my lawyer in Nigeria that my application to renounce my Nigerian citizenship has been submitted to the SGF and all fees paid as appropriate. I cannot wait for the approval,” he wrote.
Chymaker is known for his commentary on international law, UK and Nigerian legal practice, and cryptocurrency on the X platform.
