New Passport And Passport Renewal Corruption At The Immigration Office. by bet9ja(m): 9:04am On Aug 04, 2022 |
As we all know, the cost of the new 32-page passport with a five-year validity period is N25,000. However, some applicants part with as much N80,000 to get the 32-page passport with five years validity instead of N25,000. Since mine was a passport renewal, I decided to visit https://portal.immigration.gov.ng/passport/epassport/ptype/1By1C as encouraged by the Ministry of Interior - Ogbeni Rauf Adesoji Aregbesola-. The whole process was suppose to last for 3 weeks (As posted on the wall at the Nigerian Immigration Office), but they will purposely frustrate, and delay the printing in order to make you succumb to an agent that will later facilitate the printing. I captured on the 11th of May 2022, the collection receipt date was 9th June 2022. Since June, I have visited Ikeja 3 times and my passport is yet to be printed as at 3rd August 2022. Surely, the situation at the Immigration office has deteriorate to the point that no one can process a New passport or renewal with the Nigeria Immigration Service without paying for those who will facilitate the printing. I decided to visit their twitter space and i realised that we are in a roller coster as a Nation. I will keep updating this thread should there be any progress. CC lalasticlala, seun 1 Like |

This complaint isnt new. Thousands of Nigerians go through this daily. Passport issuance that is suppose to be seamless and timely has been overwhelmed by corruption. Nigerians are made to part with their hard-earned money to corrupt hands in addition to paying the official fees for the document. This also comes with the stress and waste of time of the applicants. 1 Like |

I took that route, did the registration online myself, selected an appointment date at February, 5 months after my passport was still not ready. Was going to there Ikoyi office fortnightly yet the passport was not ready. Sent mail that never delivered. I got frustrated and paid an agent, I was called same day to go and pick it the next day. Behold I picked it as advised and realized that the passport had been printed long ago but those guys knowing I did not hire the service of any of them kept saying 'Your passport not ready' |

shawrygal:Na over sabi dey worry some of you... Who are you complaining to? The government or who? This has been the system for long time, you think that you're the first person to ever complained about this? I did my renewal on April 5th at Awka Immigration office with 55k, and it was ready after 2 - 3 weeks. If you like don't do what others did, you will complain here tire. Why don't you go to government house and complain? |
