Well...What happened to the old passport? did it expire? if yes, then you are relatively safe. And the Biodata page of the old one and the new one says the same thing about you apart from number, issue date and probably place of issue. That means you are not hiding anything.
Go with the new passport and of course the old one too, and explain to the VO about how you made the mistake of using the old number probably because you were used to it. Tender the new one, and plead that you be given the chance to bring newer documents reflecting the new passport number within the week or next two weeks as you deem practicable. Then you can ask the person inviting you to make new invitation and then you can sort out other things. But priority should be given to embassy required documents.
On a second thought also, am thinking you may send a mail to the embassy today and politely pre-inform them of the situation, tell them you just discovered the error that moment you sent the mail. So that when you go on Monday it doesn't look as if you preplanned it to use an old number, so they don't suspect you of trying to pull a stunt. Importantly, please pray very well. Employ your faith. There is nothing God cannot do.
If at the end of the day, you were not obliged, I think the worst case would be to reapply for appointment after you have gotten everything straightened out. Of course you must remember that some disappoints are indeed blessings.
Good luck!
Note: Don't ever panic. Crying is not gonna change anything. Pull yourself together and you will pull through. Be strong.

Thanks sir, can them allow me to re bring d invitation latter? Is dat possible and I pray it will go like dat, because d old passport got expire, am having d old one and the new one with me there is even two visa on the old one...and another problem is who to send with the invitation letter.

oligee:

Nobody can tell you of a certainty whether they will allow you to rebring the invitation letter or not. That's why I told you to pray so that you are favoured. Normally you are not allowed to go in if you go late on your interview date, but on my appointment date I was very late, yet I was favoured and was interviewed. So there could be exceptions.
And What do you mean by "who to send with the invitation letter?

duro4real:

I mean my uncle in Germany may not see
somebody to send with the invitation letter, and
let me suggest this u know out of the documents
sent to me, my passport number just reflect on
two which is the application letter and the
invitation letter, u know appointment letter is
different from application letter, what about if I
re registered for a new application letter that will
contain my new passport number and I tell them
at d embassy that when coming next week dat I
will come along with a new invitation latter. Is
dat possible?. Pls suggestion needed.

Finally the mystery has been revealed! Since I got to Deustschland in September I observed that it looks as if the time was faster than normal. I was practically struggling to keep up, especially in the mornings. I didn't want to say the time was faster so I don't sound naive, so I just kept it to myself. LOL!
But today by 3:00Am the Daylight saving time ended and the clock in Germany was turned backward one hour, marking the end of Summer time and ushering in Winter time, which is the normal time. So we are on the same time with Nigeria now, GMT+1.
Hey Guys in Deutschland check your time, if your clock doesn't reset automatically please reset manually.
Finally I can sleep longer now.

Let me chip in a few words here.

My advice is that you book another appointment immediately with your new passport details. This will most likely be the response you will get at the embassy but I am not trying to discourage you from going there or following all the previous advice given.

For you to get to the VO, your passport will be examined at the gate which is where your troubles may start because they will check the passport number and the expiry date before allowing you in. So my advice is that you go with the both passports and present the old one at the gate. You may then be tackled on the expiry issue which gives you the opportunity to explain your way out of it. This is where it will either start or end because if you sell yourself well and they have a workaround then you are in, otherwise you would be told to go and book another appointment with the right passport number.

Did you book the appointment before the expiry of your passport? if yes, this may aid your explanations but I am sure they will counter with the fact that the booking system gives you available dates which should inform you whether or not your old passport would suffice.

All the best...

duro4real:

Okey thanks my old passport has expire two years ago.

duro4real:
No time for all these sir, my interview is just tomorrow... Is dere anoder way I can go about it sir?.

Hampy:
No time for what? How many minutes will it take your Uncle to write you another Invitation letter stating your new passport number and scanning it, and emailing you a copy for you to print and take with you to the embassy tomorrow?

When you get to the embassy you can show them your new passport and explain to them you mistakenly booked your appointment with your old passport number. And then you can hear what they’ll say. The VO is human he/she will listen to you. There is no big deal about this, people make these kind of mistakes all the time. In a new year, you find people quoting dates of the previous year because they are not yet accustomed to the fact that we are in a new year. Would you castigate them for that?

Follow all the advice you’ve gotten so far, but don’t even think about not showing up for your interview tomorrow. That may have dire consequences.

Goodluck.
