Passport passport ordinary passport,
you want kill Nigerians kpatakpata

Ezeimo:
Stop being a lunatic, our passport is very expensive compared to othercountries.
Minimumwage in Nigeria is 70k while our passport cost 200k.
In Europe Minimumwage is 2000 Euro and passport cost 67 euro. Meaning your salary is good enough to get you a passport.

I still don't understand the logic behind using minimum wage as you people's yardstick as to what should be paid for an international passport.

It is not logical. Because it simply means that the person will only spend more time saving to acquire one. That's all!

Is that the yardstick used for the price of flight ticket too?!🥴

Nteogwuija:
Just reread what you just typed amd ask urself if it made any sense.

First off, if most Nigerians had the resources, they'd opt for a second passport to ease their travel experience. The people who have the resources are already doing it.

Secondly, when the official price was around 30k, people would spend up to 70k to get it. Because if you choose to go through the official channel, you'll end up regretting.

Imagine what the amount would be now that the official price is 100k.

I don't think some of u reside in this country, else you won't be saying some of the things you say.

When last did you apply for a Nigerian passport and how did you go about it?!

Some people will begin to cry about this now...
Before, u go grow white hair before you get passport wen u apply for... But these days, before u open eyes close am.... Your passport don come out...
These things coat money and u have to pay for it....

But a typical Nigerian want everything for free.... They want to enjoy the good things of life but don't want to pay for it....
Absolutely terrible mentality....

See person that Government employed to defend it on nairaland saying coat for free .
I shame for una.

Lmaooooo
Calculate your minimum wage against your international passport and you'll see that your rulers are wicked people.

What does minimum wage have to do with this. If you are poor why do you need a passport since you don’t have money to travel anywhere?

Softmirror:
That is #8,000 Naira difference.

N8,000 difference but 10 years validity as against Nigeria's 5 years validity.

I am renewing my passport here in London tomorrow and I will be paying $230 for the 10 years validity.

So why are you complaining? Is it still poverty?!

Softmirror:
To me the money is even very low when you judge by the usefulness and importance of the Passport as well as compare the price of travel tickets, both plane and ship. Our passport is still relatively very cheap.

People have been paying a lot more than this through bribery to get Nigerian passports in recent past.

Lack of conscience make guys like you talk like this. Relatively Cheap, how?

Exactly what I was almost going to type
How much is minimum wage

This is cruel


Cruel is an understatement 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

StoryHaven:

You are not being realistic. Look at the bigger picture which is what you want to use the passport for. If you can't even afford a passport then...............what are you trying to use it for? Of course 90% of it's utility is for traveling. You expect other expenses to be free or less than the price of the passport?!

So don't come with that crap of it being cheap in as much as you need to sycophant.

Akeem, eni kure …..

It is cheap, very very cheap. You started your argument with Kenya but realized how illogical your argument was. Then you tried with a London blablabla which also doesn't make sense.

tinubu, shettima, members of the national assembly, ministers, governors, heads of the security agencies and many others and their families all enjoy free passports, free feeding, free school fees for their kids, free housing and accommodation, free transportation, free secuirty, free electricity, free health care, free phone calls, free internet, free fuel, free water.

are these the "typical nigerians" you are referring to?

if the people you are defending are enjoying freebies, what is wrong if other nigerians want to enjoy freebies?

if enjoying freebies is a bad thing, why are the people you are defending not rejecting the freebies and insisting on paying for them?

And you say it is not poverty.

Thunder where are you now !
Please u need to be useful now !

A very very welcoming development. This will further enhance efficiency.

Why not tell them to charge N1m for a passport so that they can be more and more super "efficient" .
Nonsensical hypocrites!

Like the one you are struggling with?😂😂😂

Private companies are different from government agencies.

You prefer to queue under the sun at passport office while being given strokes of koboko by immigration officers?!


Take a que from our filling stations. Pay and go. It is left for you to double your hustle.

By your logic, a person living on minimum wage has no right to travel to Benin Republic by road.

Na wa for ona oh!

CoronaVirusPro:
I concur with your stance. The institution is performing and anything that will enhance the status quo is welcomed.

Why not make it 1m so they can perform exceeding well.
Otondo.

So?!

Why should a petty trader who goes across the border to buy things to sell in Nigeria have to spend 200K just to get a passport?!
