MrEgbegbe:

Driving school and then issued a certificate of proficiency and also take a Driving test in Nigeria before they issue you a driver's license ??

Tell me this is a joke

How many of you went to a driving school and also did driving test before you got your driving license in Nigeria

Don't lie

you have a point but they are right.
If that is not a requirement, they will end up giving license to those who can't even kick a car.

It's called drivers license and it is issued to those who can drive. The only way you can prove that you can drive is to show what certifies you as a driver

God will intervene in our matter someday.

Who even needs a driver's license ??

Unless you're traveling interstate where you will meet unfamiliar wicked police officers​

This is not new. I did mine 2 years ago online. Just went to the office for data capture

same thing I was wondering oh! This process has been on in Abuja for years now. Same way I did mine three years back.

Rooms for corruption are opened at every level, anyhow you like it we must get ours personal fulfilling coins from.. Our Oga at top approved it.. For God sake.. why not charge the whole process to be in uniform in respective of whatever state you're obtaining it..

I hope they are transparent and telling the truth though.

Nigeria is a complete joke of a country. You can get a drivers license without going through the authority's test.
They are fast-tracking the issuance of drivers license instead of looking for a way to standardize driving schools and harmonize them. Then set up a testing school that re-assures the person is road worthy before the license is issued.

Majority of the road accidents that occur in Nigeria are caused by the negligence of the driving rules and regulations.

We should be looking for a way to reduce the accident on our roads by making sure drivers stick to these rules and revoke any reckless drivers license a period of time. The importance of a drivers license should be more than the car particulars. Someone without a drivers license is a good as a 6 month jail.

We still have a long way to go in this country. Misplaced priority everywhere...

Even people from the Northern and southern states of the USA like Maine, Montana, Alabama and South Carolina don't drive with drivers license

Oga d tin tire me.
I paid like 7k for one driving school result then another 11k like that for one certificate which will be processed with the result. ... I tire

Is that appropriate?
Because that happens in those parts of the US as u said; therefore we should do same.

Don't pamper your abnormalities. Deal with them.

for as long as you have to print out and go to their office for verification and or certification, its all the same thing. extortion will take place at that point.

ifyalways:
Same way we can get our international passport online abi?

Go to FRSC/VIO office at VI, only two laptops and one printer in use and watch as it's being shuffled from desk to desk. Every thirty minutes, network is down, people's files containing personal information tied with ropes and dumped on the floor.

Yeye.

You mentioned one area how about areas that are functional? It's good to call out bad places but let's not tag that's the way all the places are.

@mr egbegbe u are aborn liar..there is no state in usa that u can get driver license without passing through the driver license test....my wife is from Alabama and we reside in college park in Atlanta Georgia.u sound like ur brother seun egbegbe

Wiseandtrue:

FRSC can still make their verification online too! Why print anything and take it to their office again
The process is just like a new wine in an old bottle

I apply for a Visa Card from US online and I get it delivered to my doorstep in 2weeks here in Nigeria

FRSC in Nigeria wants me to go online, fill document and still print on paper.
Then I will now start looking for the nearest FRSC office to me...
That's plenty bullshit

Believe this story at your own peril, I applied for renewal for the past 4 months and I am yet to get my license. The most annoying part is their staffs at Manchu, can you believe when I laid a complaint the response I got is "no be our fault,check back in May " I don't even know what to do again.

Only 5 years?

This is not new at all. I have been doing this since 5 years now. The last licence I did which already expired and the present one were done online and paid for. I only went to their office for data capture. I am surprised to read its new.

This Dr Joe Abah must be a very corrupt person. Why not fix a uniform charge for a driver 's licence in Nigeria. He is instead talking of hidden charges which vary from state to state. These men at the top are the ones creating room for extortion and corruption to flourish.

This is my second time of doing it online as I just did renewal last week. The hidden charges in bayelsa is 1k in VIO office and 1k in Road safety office which they will tell you that is for the Code book and issue it for you. I stood my ground that I have the code book before and I don't need it now. The officer insists and i said am not going to pay for that, after I have paid 10,450 for 5 years. The guy said I should go to one office to clear myself and I did, the woman just look at my form and printout from bank and she approved it. That's how I went back for capturing and i was issued temporary. Everything was done within 30 minutes because is almost 5pm already. If you don't do it online, you might spend close to 10k for 3 years renewal.

Do nigerians drive with licence? I have never met any Nigerian who drives with a licence.

nice
someone did swoop me 12k for 3yrs license I was even tnkn n showing more appreciation

I did not even go learning school I was using ma imagination from ma childhood car racing to drove ma first car doh with so much fear in me..but na automatic

it's funny because I just came back from nigeria and I drove without a licence no road safety bothered to pull me over, maybe because it was a Range Rover 2016, the Road safety guy who was brave or bothered enough to do his job pulled me over because i didn't have my seat belt on, he inquired about my license I told him I didn't have one, he threatened to impound my car and take me to the station, when I said go ahead he then asked me nicely to settle i did with 1000 naira simples.

And oh! No Road safety has the right to confiscate your car what the law says is they will take your car to the station and give you atleast 24 hours to produce your license.

They are deceiving themselves..

I tried renewing mine here, it is not working.

All they need do is give me a transaction ID, then i pay to the bank using the tran. ID and then goto FRSC office armed with a bank print out possibly from PAY DIRECT software and duplicate deposit slip. then FRSC gives me a new licence.

At FRSC office, 3 and 5 years DL renewal is N10,000 and N15,000 respectively..

While they claiming its N6,350 and N10,450

Haba! This online registration isn't new naa. I used it to renew mine in 2011. But got my license in 2014, because i refused to greese anyone's palm.

In the spirit of the continuous revamping of processes of public ventures and ease of making transactions which has seen the Nigerian Immigration service launch a 48-hour online visa application system for businesspersons, the Federal Road Safety Corp has introduced a new and easier way of requesting and renewing driver’s license in all the states of the federation.

The improved means which was announced by the Director-General of Bureau of Public Service, Dr Joe Abah through his Twitter handle (@DrJoeAbah) has the official costs of a driver’s license at 6,350 naira for 3 years validity and 10,450 naira for 5 years validity.

Explaining the costs and the process, Dr Joe Abah stated the price above is solely for the license and not for any other thing. In essence, the process may incur other expenses which are by no means catered for in the 6,350, and 10,450 price groups respectively.

First-time applicants are expected, as a norm, to have gone through driving school where they must have taken driving tests and issued certificates of proficiency which will allow them to apply for the license. All costs incurred during this process are not covered by the license fee.

Dr Abah explained further that it is possible for Vehicle Inspection Officers who control the issuance of driving certificates at states level to charge certain amounts on certificates, which vary per states for driving certificates, different from the license fee. The state internal revenues board may also charge certain amounts for each license. This also varies by state. Taking driving lessons and tests are the normal procedure for the procurement of a driving license. The will to fraudulently bypass this process is taken as the main reason some applicants pay touts and fake officers double the stipulated fees.

The process for renewal is similar to that of new applicants except for the tests and certificates. For renewals and new applications, motorists are to log on to www.nigeriadriverslicence.org where they would initiate their renewal and pay the appropriate fees. The data page is then to be printed and taken to the nearest FRSC office for the necessary confirmations and affirmations.

In all this, however, the interesting part is that the application can now be self-initiated, with only minor confirmations, certifications, and tests to be completed at the branches of the Federal Road Service Corp. This will not only fast-track the process of applying for a license, it blocks, to an extent, avenues for corrupt officials to extort Nigerians.
