I appreciate your response. Just for the sake of clarity, are you saying that declaration of age and certificate of Indigeneship are not required at the point of visit to the passport office after submitting all items online?
They are not required for Nigerian passport renewal only.

Thanks For Sharing. Ekitiman said a letter of sorts is required for renewal of expired passport, but you did not mention any letter submitted. Please help to reconfirm the entire documents that you submitted. Also, did you have to take any of the documents to the courts to certify? i remember that i had to do something like that the last time i had a passport done

Good evening everyone I really appreciate how you guys are answering questions, God bless you all.

I intend to do a fresh passport application tomorrow, the sate where I will chose for capturing is Benin City.

Now these are my questions.

1. I was born in 1991, meaning I will be needing affidavit of age declaration but the one I currently have was sworn at the customry Court, no picture attached to it, can it be accepted ?

2. I intend to use my phone , I hope there are option for downloading slip and other necessary receipts, I don't want a situation I will finish application I will not be able to download the necessary slips.

3. I hear people complaining of delay in getting emai
of confirmation of payments , how do I avoid this delay ?
1. It will not be accepted because you didn't attach a passport photo.

2. Feel free to use your phone...

3. …technical glitches and perhaps choosing an appointment date less than 2 or 3 weeks from the day of your application, ...the reasons why an applicant for Nigerian passport experience temporary delay in receiving approval email.

FoodRe: Chicken Republic Security Guard Drinking Garri (Video) by ekitimanalways(m): 10:55am On Aug 26, 2024
Zooposki:
So chicken republic cannot even feed their workers while on duty. What kind of yeye company is that? I’m speechless. No more ordering from them. I will just keep remembering this picture.
The reason eateries don’t feed employees is that it isn’t a legal requirement in Nigeria. They are already providing compensation for their employee’s work through salary wages, and so, they are under no obligation to provide food.

While it would certainly be a nice perk to earn money as you work and also have a meal or two taken care of by your employer, it is not something eatery employees should expect.

From a business point of view, it would significantly affect an eatery’s food supply and profits if they had to buy enough ingredients to feed their customers and employees.

Although you could argue that feeding its employees is a cost Chicken Republic could make, it would put an exceptional strain on the eatery.

Please, I made payment for my passport online at midnight today and the payment status shows that it has been paid, but the thing is, I haven’t gotten the approval email because it still shows waiting approval. My question is, how many days will it take to get the approval email because my appointment is Sept 2? Thanks in anticipation for your responses.
The reason for the delay in getting an approval email could be the date (2 September 2024) you have picked for capturing/enrolment. The date is very close. You ought to have given it (capturing/enrolment) 19 days from the day you applied and made payment. It is highly important you receive an approval email before going for capturing/enrolment. If after 2 or 3 weeks from the date of application and payment of application fee you are yet to get an approval email, quickly lodge a complaint to NIS.

You can always go for capturing/enrolment even after your appointment date, which is 2 September 2024. You should receive the approval email soon.

@ekitimanalways. pls,
Does this mean that a National Identity Card can be used in place of a Letter of identification from the Local Government/State of origin?
Thanks
You can't be too careful when dealing with Nigeria Immigration Service. Therefore, I would suggest that you attach to your passport application form both copies of your NIN, which is a national identity card and a letter of identification from your local government or state of origin certificate (just) to be on the safe side.

PoliticsRe: Tinubu’s Reforms: Nightmarish Cases From Other Countries - Farooq Kperogi by ekitimanalways(m):
Faiththatworks:
I believe Asiwaju did the best thing for Nigeria by removing the parallel exchange rate operated by the CBN and also the fuel subsidy.
Only President Jonathan attempted to remove the Fuel subsidy and some members of the opposition party used it as one of their campaign manifesto to remove him.
Whether we agree or disagree,the removal of fuel subsidy and unifying the exchange rate is enough to remove any government as seen by the hardship in Nigeria but I really really respect Asiwaju for refusing to back down and reintroduce those subsides.
There's hardship in Nigeria and no one should try to cover it up,my advice to Asiwaju is for him to find quick emergency fixes for the country.
I can testify the power situation is really improving, although I don't know if if the same in other parts of the country,this has helped cover up the fuel scarcity that has been lingering for almost a month.
Asiwaju must ensure whatever the Ministry of Power is doing is improved on.
Asiwaju must also order NNPCL to sell subsidize crude oil to Dangote for the next 6 months so he can deliver refined petrol,diesel, kerosene and Aviation fuel.
This will really help to reduce the pump price of these products and help Asiwaju look for more sustainable results in the months ahead.
Finally he must sack the parasitic element in NNPCL,those guys will never allow Nigeria function as far as they are importing refined fuel into Nigeria.
God bless Nigeria
Note that Nigerians experience better power supply from April to October each year. These months offer a rare window of climatic calm because of heavy rains and turbulent storm. This period (April to October) allows the distribution transformers to operate efficiently, without the fear of overloading.

What of someone born in may 1992 that did not have the birth certificate
1992 to 2024 is 32 years. You are older than 18 years. Therefore, the National Population Commission will not issue you a birth certificate. Instead of a birth certificate, you will be given an Attestation of Birth.
