Stop writing nonsense. At arrival hall at MMA, it is clearly written that Nigerians with expired Nigeria passport are welcomed. I don't understand why you people sound stupid with pride. Expired passport prevents you from traveling out from your country because the country you are traveling to will not welcome you. Not everyone owns a passport even.

Think of it that they are not arguing at MMA arrival hall they are in the Court of law where what the judges want to see are physical evidences supported by evidence. Technically no court of law will accept "Expired passport" and also not a "certified true copy" as evidence. So Obident enthusiast should use their brain and not emotion.
Besides, does it make sense to say Tinubu is not a Nigerian when his connection with Guinea is ordinary choice obtaining passport of another country. Let's be reasonable.

no date and says infinite so it has expressly said it is valid.. Your passport say valid till a given time for a reasonn.. So far it is expired it loses validity.. You have to renew it.. An expired document is no proof anywhere in the world.. I dont know how obidients reasons sef.. Is it with this useless reasoning u guys wan to build a great nation in Biafra and Nigeria ?

you can use an expired passport in Australia for identification so long as is not more than 2 years old. If given a passport, it means you were a citizen of that country at some point. The onus lies on you to show a document that proves you cancelled your citizenship

There is a difference between passport validity and citizenship validity.
The expiration of your passport doesn't invalidate your citizenship.

Go and check how citizenship can be revoked, expiration of passport isn't one of them.

Simple Google will clarify this but because of party affiliation, we'd rather support strange logics than hold on to the truth
settle down and read bro, the respondent did not say the expired passport invalidates tinubu's Guinean citizenship, but he said the exhibit that was tendered as evidence had expired since 2020, of which an expired document cannot be admitted as an evidence in the law court. Can you point to me were the lawyer said the expired passports invalidates citizenship?

Fake younger picture (he used Donald Duke's baby pictures).
Fake NYSC certificate.
Fake Gender.
I'd go on and on.

But hey all of this is lost on Tinubu's supporters. They are tone deaf. If they could defend a useless mannequin like Buhari, wetin come be Tinubu wey den no fit defend.

Olanipekun is fishing for technicalities. Asper usual, this case will be decided on technical grounds, just watch. If not here at the tribunal, I guarantee you at the Supreme court. It has happened before with the 2019 elections case, that was against Atiku.

Our laws are simply made to be rubbished on the grounds of technicality. The judges are only there to give rulings on the basis of technicalities. The lawyers are only there to argue on the basis of technicalities.

Tinubu too get wahala. Too much cubweb in his cupboard.

Why didn't they Present Osinbanjo.
This is same thing Adamu was trying to avoid not to allow him to contest. He thinks he can use money to buy everything.

Now he's is threatening judiciary.
Many of his tribes men have turned against him for trying to mess thier good name in Nigeria political space if Tribunal sack him.

His case is bad at Tribunal, witnesses ran away. Festus Keyamo too ran away he could have come as witness after all he said during campaign.

It appears you are conflicting indigenship with citizenship. This is not a legal opinion, expiration of passport does not invalidate your citizenship. Passport is an identification tag for international travel purposes.

Maybe you don't know much about citizenship. It can either been renounced, withdrawn. Whichever way. It has to be official. Documented. Expired passport only means restricting one of using the said passport at that particular time. He or she is still the citizen of said country.


You are tge one who doesn't know about citizenship.. If u say u are a citizen of a country, the first everyone will ask u for is proof. Whoch are identity card or passport o. Or letter from relevant authorities If u bring an expired passport. It is expired it is no form of identification . U will be told to go and renew.

Dont u know tge expiry date is for a reason.. So if all Tinubu has is an expired passport under the law u have no proof.. Go and bring his valid guinea id card.. Seem una no dey understand things.

Your invalid passport does not make your citizenship invalid.International passport is a choice not compulsory.You will first become a citizen of a country before you can obtain their passport.International passport is just one of many benefits of being a citizen of a country.There are millions of Nigerian citizen without international passport.

You are confusing urself.. I am talking about obi case not general. U r saying i am a Nigerian citizen by presenting my expired passport.. It is expired, if i say i am not a citizen of Nigeria dont forget tge burden of proof still lies with u to prove i am a Nigerian.. So u jave to either presrnt a valid document or forget the fact i am Nigerian or do u expect ume to help u by renewing and giving it to u?

Lead counsel to Tinubu in his written address to the court in his case against PDP/Atiku once again said that Tinubu's Guinean citizenship expired the moment his Guinean passport expired in 2020

Below is the address.

How can someone's citizenship terminate because his passport expired? In which country on earth is that applicable?
This Wale Olanipekun is really thick in the head, the man has been really poor in his defense of the questionable government and APC. Those rumors of him winning cases by bribing judges must be true.
It's like he is in a competition with Keyamo on who will say the most ridiculous things. Banza kawaii.

If you think your citizenship is still valid without valid evidence , take your expired passport or nation identity card to a bank or to apply for visa and see whether they won't turn you back at the gate ,that's if security don't carry you for interrogation, try it first ,then come back to nairaland to tell us how it went 😉.
