BREYZ:


I applied for my passport since 2nd July and till this moment the passport isn't ready. One immigration officer is requesting I pay extra 20k for it to be ready in a week. This country is messed up.

Poleski:
Every level of Nigerian government is massively corrupt. I paid 50k for new passport at their Abuja office!

LORDKing001:

I applied last week fa.
But I coughed out roughly 45k
Meanwhile u don collect your own?

Poleski:


I collected mine within an hour.

latitidejavu:
All of you paying are the real corrupt individuals.

You are all impatient and seeking for who to blame for your corrupt tendencies.

My wife and I paid for the passport online and I went to the office. I was asked who is 'pushing' it for me, I replied that I didn't pay anyone anything.

They kept me there for 6 hours. I took out my laptop and was working while sitting down. After a while I got up and walked to the office of the OIC and told him that I am aware of all the people who paid 50k, 60k etc and who has been issued passports. That why are they keeping us here.

One junior office made to talk , I promptly shut him up otherwise I will write him up. Within 45 minutes I was ushered in for my capture and my booklet issued.

You are all the ones corrupting the officers. if you all show up there prepared to do the right thing then they will sit up. What happens is that everyone tried to jump the queue and outsmart the other person. Nigerians ACTIVELY look for who to bribe to subvert the process.

Nigerians will walk into an office and start looking for who will do it express and fast then come online to point fingers.

Oga, the system is corrupt . Even you that got it in 45min is favourism! Not everyone can fight people like you did. You were also frustrated just like every other person that opt for bribing them instead of turning the place to boxing ring. If we have a working system , i dont need to pay them a dime or bully them to get things done.

latitidejavu:
The system is corrupt because of people that come there to bribe the officers.

I got it immediately after my capture because that was the policy. I waited for three weeks before my capture.

Do the right thing and insist that the right thing be done! I could afford to pay 70k but I insisted on doing the right thing.

You are here blaming 'system' when it's you Nigerians that look for how to mess up the system. Always looking for shortcuts, express, who you know inside an office.

Bobbyjay001:


That's how a director at FERMA had to hastily recall his boys when bubu was sworn-in for the completion of an abandoned project which it's money had been fully paid for during Yar'adua regime cos of fear of buhari.

florixi:
I insist you getting the passport in 45min after capturing is favourism! The due process is for you to wait till six weeks after capturing before issuance and collection. why didn't you ask them to clear the people before you before they issue your own. My family captured since July up till now not issued yet. so which due process are you talking about?.

The problem in nigeria is that everyone sort themselves! whether by bullying or bribery . In abroad once your passport is ready they dhl it to you in your house. you dont need to go to their office to shut or harass anyone , don't you like such a system? so i repeat its the system!

LORDKing001:

Where you apply?

latitidejavu:
I insist that you do not have the full facts.

My passport was in 2020. Then you are given a date online and you go and do your capture and take your passport.


If the official time is 6 weeks now, then people good wait for 6 weeks! Then plan with that information but no, people want to beat the line.

If you have been waiting since July then take it up! Write to every possible anti-corruption office. Make a case out of it if you have the courage which most Nigerians lack.
