I wanted to renew my old pasport but it expired since 15 years and I assume its too old to renew. So I want to apply for a new one and when a friend recommended someone the person said his charge is 150k. On the online portal if I wish to do it myself... its 100k but the requirements are:

National Identification Number (NIN), birth certificate, Local Government Indigene Certificate, a guarantor's form.

Now my problem is, I dont know where to get this Local Government Indigene Certificate (Abia state), and guarantor's form. Even birth certificate I no sure say I still get am but I need to check.

What do you guys recommend, do I kuku just pay the person to run it for me, I am just afraid of people nowadays make them no carry my money run.

If you still have a copy of your old passport then go for renewal and all you need are your National Identification Number (NIN) and birth certificate, you don't need local govt certificate.

Most importantly do this yourself online and avoid allowing anyone to supply documents for you. There is nothing difficult about this, an hour or less is enough to complete the form online.

I tried online but when I typed my passport number it was saying the id was not there...like it was not in their database, so I assumed, it deprecated since it actually expired 16 years ago. I dont know if its a online wahala thing and if I have to go there physically

Go to any immigration office near you to get firsthand information.

Then apply for a new one and yes you can visit their office to get it sorted
