Its not the governments job to renew your passport.

Lack of personal responsibility and self entitlement is one of the greatest barriers to progress in Nigeria and the black race generally.

Same problem in South Africa where the shameless citizens rather than work hard, laze and drink around all day and get angry with hard working foreigners (both legal and illegal hard work)

expired passport shouldn't be an excuse as long as they have a passport to identify. (those deported from other countries to Nigeria on thesame case nkor?)

I honestly think this reason is lame, except there’s something they’re not telling us. The people to be evacuated are Nigerians with a Nigerian airline. I don’t get how an expired passport will stop them from flying. The view of the immigration officer on arrival is that you are coming home and as such all you need to do is prove citizenship, which an expired passport does.
.



If it was a war torn area, then the expired passport could be overlooked .

We should learn to do follow rules and do the right things first instead of the usual fire bridge approach.

The international passport, most Nigerians living in Diaspora gets in a day, takes a Nigerian more than 2 months to get it in Nigeria undecided

Is it normal

I think it's expired passport delaying them watch and see if it will be resolved before the time given

What am I even saying Watch the body language of the government claiming to be worried about it people!!!

International law does not allow travel without travel documents especially in this era of terrorism. How can you be sure the person is a Nigerian. The Airports are still controlled by South Africa.
What the Nigerian Embassy can do is to give temporary travel documents

The same thing happens during deportations. Even a corpse in a casket needs documents .

That's the problem with illegal migration. Why wouldn't you renew your passport when you are in a foreign land Knowing anything could go wrong or right.
Unless you have lived abroad before you will not know.

It is very common for Nigerian missions abroad to run out of passport booklets.

People are often unable to travel to attend funerals, family holiday and so on because after months of applying for a new or to renew passports, embassies say no booklet. At times 6 months you will not get your passport.

Only with a foreign passports can you travel home on TC and use foreign passport to return to base.
Otherwise if you cannot at a considerable extra cost change your ticket travel date, you will lose the entire ticket.
To be a Nigerian is not easy whether home or abroad.

Where did you see Buhari in that story? The plan to fly the people back was a private one from Air Peace. The company is claiming that most of the people have expired documents. The company now seeks government permission to fly them with the expired documents.

Wow... Imagine such challenges for just passport, that's just unfair. It's an essential document that should always be speedily available to our citizens in diaspora. It's one's identity.
It's not really easy being a Nigerian angry sad

The truth is that even with expired passport they can still travel, that is why passengers are issued emergency travel certificate.
