Winnie Okoh

Winnington Citizens & Partners, a Visa processing and second citizenship by investment firm has expressed determination to create more access to business opportunities, education and healthcare services for Nigerians in other countries.

Winnie Okoh, Managing Partner and Chief Executive Officer, Winnington Citizens & Partners, disclosed this in Abuja at the launching of the company in Abuja.

Okoh said the firm is partnering with five countries in the Caribbean to market their citizenship by investment for those who want to acquire a second citizenship and a strong passport that will take them up to 160 countries without using Visas.

She explained that business opportunities abound in the Caribbean as many tourists go there every year while there are farming and fishing activities which serve as bridge to other developed countries of Europe and America.

Oko said: “I have heard of many people that have missed business opportunities because they were not granted visas but at least with this passport, they could access the countries. If you want to go to school abroad we can help you get admission and package you in a legal way then you go. You don’t have to go and become another thing in another man’s country.

“We also partner with five countries in the Caribbean to market their citizenship by investment for those who want to acquire second citizenship, a strong passport that will take you up to 160 countries visa free. Yours is just to buy a ticket and hop into the plane to avoid all the embassies problems.
And this citizenship will give you access to good healthcare and good education for the children.

“Once you get this passport, it passes from generation to generation. It doesn’t expire. Once it expires you renew it automatically you become a citizen of that particular country. With that passport, you can settle in the UK also. You can stay in the UK without a visa.

“So far so good is just a new company and we have over 15 staff already, amongst these staff we have 13 Nigerians so I believe that is something that has touched Nigeria in a positive way and secondly what about the children that are privileged enough to have this passport that can actually go to school in another country, in Europe, they learn one or two things and come back to this country”.

The Managing Partner also disclosed that she has through her Non-Governmental Organisation, Winnie Foundation is improving the lives of children in rural public schools by supplying uniforms, sandals, books, bags and other materials to them.

“I run an NGO, basically what we do is making children comfortable in public schools. We go to villages and pick those children, we go to their schools supply them books, school bags, sandals, stockings; what we think they can never have”, she stated.
