@oracle i had to[b] pay a fine[/b] before i was given the key. so itz not like that everywhere.so after the fine u were given the car to continue? @ omotee Let me start by saying that I got my driver's license before I even learnt how to drive! I'd just bought my car and getting a driver's license was just one of the 'to-dos' on my list. My driver's license was processed in three days and delivered to me at home. In Nigeria, our laws are made to be broken.processed officially? delivered to you at home? yeppa |

LoverBwoy:thatz funny, i was given the car keys, did you expect them to arrest me? |
Re: Getting a Driver's License in Nigeria by LoverBwoy(m): 3:59am On Aug 07, 2006 |
well you said they were stricter* up north but the fine is actually a bribe if you think of it, cos they still allowed you to continue lol they should warn you and tell some1 with a proper liecense to continue the journey or even tell you to go home and get someone with a proper license to come and collect the car |

in naija who cares if you have driving lesson or liscence! if the police get you just pay some shandi to the egunje police and they will allow you freely a beg o! in nigeria anything can happen but i think its good for you to have a liscence if you have a car expecially in naija that anything can happen! |

[color=#000099][/color] drivers licence got my ist 13yrs ago and it ws through the proper channel and all the renewals have had was all done through the same process. all i can say here is that if u are used to the 20 naira bail be careful cus the experience i had with the road safety once when my d.licence expired without me knowing was worse than not having any at all a word i think is enough for the wise, |

Hi guys, i was just looking for information on how to get driver's license in Nigeria on the Internet when i discovered this interesting discussion website. Well, from my own part, i think Nigeria is very corrupt, anything goes there. I am presently in Canada and have recently got my G1 driver's license only to realized that i have to wait for one year before i actually drive without a fully licensed driver sitting beside me since i have no previous driving experience. To me waiting for one year before i get a license that will allow me to drive alone is worrying and frustrating as i need to see myself driving soonest. In Nigeria i can get it within three to four days lol. |
Re: Getting a Driver's License in Nigeria by DewDrop(f): 9:57am On Mar 29, 2007 |
3 or 4 days? WoW- Why would it take so long? I had mine overnite, I gave my driver my passport photos and wrote out my info on Tuesday morning and by Wednesday evening- He handed me my Nigerian license(though nothing is correct on it- not even my name is spelled correctly!), So i don't know if it'd enter fire, but i got mine! LoL Seriously though, It would have been better to list all the protocol and security measures I faced in getting a license, however Nigeria is in such a state that going to the 'DMV' to inquire about a license was one of the of the most difficult things for me to accomplish- as in at the end of the day, the only thing i had were extortion attempts. "Fill that form, pay this amount, come back this day", and 'this day' would never come, It's truly frustrating. |

Can anyone get me a Nigerian drivers license? My old one expired and I need to renew. How do I go about doing it now that I am out of the country? |

What ever situation you enter in this driving of a thing, cash will solve it, just in nigeria. They love stopping me cos am a young guy, well i always get ready my cash, 2 green is enough. |

I first went to the Driving License Center on Thursday 8th November but apparently there was a strike or something so I went back on Tuesday 20th. The guy asked for my name which I gave him (no checking passport or anything). He asked for height and when I told him I didn't know it, he wrote down a guess on the forms!! All the other things I didn't know he just left blank also; blood type, etc, They took a quick photograph, my thumb print, and told me to come back Thursday 22nd! |

Re: Getting a Driver's License in Nigeria by ikeyman00(m): 6:51pm On Oct 01, 2008 |
how long does it take to get a license |
Re: Getting a Driver's License in Nigeria by Fhemmmy: 8:22pm On Oct 01, 2008 |
No wonder there are series of accidents on the Nigerian roads. No wonder many people dont even understand the traffic laws and the traffic signs, because, they dont even know how to drive, since all they have to do is pay 5000 Naira and they have a licence, and nothing to show they could drive or couldnt, how shameful. These are some of the reasons why Nigerians will take a very long time to be aiight and better. |

Re: Getting a Driver's License in Nigeria by bedoiro: 12:53pm On Feb 02, 2011 |
i think we should watch our mouth the way we castigate and insult our own father land, even if things are this bad we should pray to God that things will get better, "GOD BLESS NIGERIA" saying this will do you no harm but good, we are all ambassadors as we are. or dont you know that other countries are watching us and listening to our remarks about our country, and when they put us in deterring positions we cry out! @vexxy please do the drivers license cuz it will be of more use in future. God Bless Nigeria! |
