My Harrowing Experience At Ikoyi by Jimdonnet(m): 9:21pm On Oct 01, 2015
Hello guys good evening please I have an issue disturbing me.i was called last week Thursday to come and collect my international passport and came on Friday last week to ikoyi passport office but they were closed.actually I was at akwa ibom and I ran down to ikoyi to get the passport on getting there the whole place was closed I had to go back to akwa ibom that same day. Sunday the dude that did it for me called me and told me to come and get it.so I told him I will come Wednesday which was yesterday.i came to ikoyi yesterday from akwa ibom and thumb printed and collected my passport.then I went to the guy that did it for me and he asked for my passport which I gave him.then he said I should go.but I asked for my passport back he said my mum who is abroad by the way said he should seize it.my uncle who stood in as my guarantor also said they should hold it and when he comes they should give it to him. The issue is I have issues with my mum and uncle at the moment but does it affect my passport because I know my uncle can use it for some criminal purpose and he was my guarantor. Please I am thinking of calling in the police but I need someone to help me with someone that can get it back for me. Please note I raised alarm and the immigration officers there gathered and took the passport from him but he was insisting they should not give it to me.i am not a criminal but the guy called me criminal and all sort of unprintable names.i really want to sue him and get my passport back. Please if we have police officers here or anyone with the relevant authorities should please help me out.i have limited funds please cc-lalasticlala,obinoscopy,royalroy, seun please help me on front page I was harassed at ikoyi passport office

Call them and ask them why. They should be the first people you iron out the matter with.

What reason(s) did they give for withholding your passport?

To the police this will be treated as a family matter. You have no evidence to prove you uncle will use it for criminal purposes. Also are you above 18?

The problem is not with the Immigration office but with your family.

Your mum asked your Uncle who is also your guarantor to seize the passport from you?

Have u been planning to run away for any reason?

Your passport is your own, legitimately nobody else has a right to hold your passport except yourself.

Report to the nearest police station and probably get a lawyer to sue the agent and your Uncle.

Hoping this is settled amicably though.

All the best.

This is a family matter? If your uncle is the one that scared as your guarantor then he can sieze your passport if he believes you will use it for a criminal purpose. Secondly ,who paid for the passport or who funded its acquisition?was it you,your mother or uncle?

OP solution to your problem is simple. Just get a police report and declare your old passport missing/stolen. with this you can go to any immigration office and apply for a new one. this time do it in akwaibom. why travel all the way to Lagos in the first place is there no passport office in akwaibom?
