I went for my capturing on September 27.

And after waiting till last Monday (December 18), I decided to contact one of their officers to find out why it took that long, and lo and behold, he showed me my passport.

It has been printed since November 18 (that's approximately 6 weeks after my capturing). However, I couldn't collect it because I was told that there's an error on it, which will be corrected immediately after the yuletide.

Will go back there first week in January to pick up my passport.

This is my advise for anyone who intends to apply or just applied.

Don't rely on the online tracker.

Go to the passport office 6 weeks after your capturing.

There's high chances that your passport has been produced.

The way almost everything seems to go wrong with governmental bodies in Nigeria needs to be studied. Why is the online tracker not working? That's how I did my national ID and was given particulars with which to monitor it. Until now, I'm yet to get the permanent card.

You're absolutely right.

I've enrolled for my National ID for almost a decade, and I still don't have the permanent card till today.

That error they observed will however become an endless journey for you.
