Hello House..... I've been having an issue with this new drivers license and I finally tried to make it known yesterday.

I registered and paid in the bank since march 2014 and wasn't able to take the picture and get the temporary till may 2015. The temporary was given for 60 days and I was duly informed that I will get the original at the expiration. On the day of expiry , I went back to the RIRS office and I was told that a text message will be sent to my number when the original is ready. Its September and no message yet.

Now my issue is why was the old one scrapped when the federal government know that they can't or it will be hard for them to achieve this new one.

2. Why is the so called illiterates that didn't undergo any training in the Nigerian police Force attempting to arrest people with the expired temporary license when it isn't the fault of the holder ?

3. What is the government and RIRS doing about the delay?

The country is so corrupt that they start new things just to embezzle money and leave the citizens suffering for it .

A so called mopol man attempted arresting me yesterday for this and I simply told him that I'd go anywhere he wants to take me to and face any high ranking officer and even go to court and let it be on the news before I'd back out of what he's trying to start. He claims d police knows nothing about the delays . Am I the one to inform them ?

I say now, let Nigerian government start taking things seriously and also look into reforms that aren't effective ....also the rubbish Nigerian police force.

...

I think you should check your initial registration!

Bro the new one is even much better than the previous one

I have checked and its valid ...... Its like not getting ur national id card. Till now I've not seen mine. Had to register again and still not received. Such things don't work in Nigeria.

It was a man from RIRS that had to settle the issue yesterday telling the zoo police that its their fault and they have been thinking about informing the police . imagine, *thinking o *

Check the process

I registered for renewal
paid online
brought the printout for biometric scan / passport
initially they formed akpako masters
but when i showed one of them ICPC logo on my vehicle ,
their sense came to normal
I had my picture taken within the hour
I have since gotten message that the original is ready
but i am yet to collect it

Also , Your temporary DL lasts for 2 months In as much as you have the TDL,no one should insult, assault or arrest you

If anyone does, note the name of said officer and report to servicom or ICPC

@dabuillt .... U too much.

Go back to them and they will stamp and sign the expired temporary one and extend it to a further date.
They did same for mine which I used until I got the original.

@ftanchizy, I'd do that.

Now guys the question is still unanswered .

1. Who is to be held responsible ?
2. Is Nigeria ripe for E-registration ( e.g. voting, licenses , identity cards, ATM, biometric verification number ?
3. Why it doesn't work ?
