Unfortunately this is average service, for Nigeria. Don't go there expecting average to stellar American service. If you want a passport, expect to be there all day. Get there between 10am and 1pm. Purchase a $30 money order before you go. Eat before you go and then go out to eat after passport data processing is done. You can't take any food or drink into the building. And you have to leave baby food at the front desk, which is ridiculous. Come with reading material or other entertainment, or be prepared to make friends in the waiting room so you can pass the time having conversation. You can go out to explore the city after the interview, just be back by 3:30pm. The lady who takes pictures and verifies your data is rude and nasty and acts so put upon, as if doing her job is actually a personal favor to you, ignore her stank attitude. Not sure why she still has a job interacting with normal humans, but her male counterpart is friendly, and the other staff members try to be helpful. You will get your passport at 5pm, if you are not a young child with constantly changing features, and that is a huge plus.
