HELLO guys it was indeed a successful journey. my flight was scheduled to depart from abuja at 01:10 PM. I was at the the airport before 9am to make sure i escape and settle all the hurdles before boarding. with me are my clothes and food stuffs ( my regret was not parking lots of naija food stuffs before boarding). i passed through first security check: no problem encountered. on getting to the second check point i was stopped by customs personnel. They asked me to declare what was on me i told them it was my clothes,laptop and some food stuff. The man said i should open the bag for manual checking. "Why you wan delay my journey naa?" i boldly told him jokingly. He now directed me to agriculture section( i guess) where i was made to pay N1,500 ( receipted). on getting to where they weighed my bag it was discovered thet it was in excess, i was made to buy Ghana must go bag at ridiculous price of N1,000 to reduce excess luggage and N1000 for wrapping of the bag to protect it from damaging.Now the the immigration, The woman who was in charge sked me what was my mission to dubai,i told her i am going for vacation,she asked for visa i showed her, she asked for hotel reservation i showed her, she asked for BTA( i was only having $200 with me) i showed her three atm cards in my wallet. she was kind of insisting i show her $1,000 Bta. i now told her " Who get that kind of money for this buhari government?" They all laughed and began to demand for soft drink money. i gave them N500 and they stamped my passport. Thats all. The rest na stress free till i boarded the flight. Here in dubai no immigration hasssles just follow the instructions you will not have problem. Now the Job Hunt begins!!!

so far so good I MUST say it was kind of easy for me here in dubai as i have a brother/friend who made it easy for me to come and pick me at the airport at 4 am this morning and has been entertaining me with foods and drinks (Isi Ekwensu.

The longer u delay d ticket d lesser money ud pay the quicker u use d open ticket the more u pay... Bless

Valclint:
Tanx for the prompt response bro. I was suppose to fly on last week Friday but couldn't make it Bcs of Financial issues and informed who opened the ticket without given me proper details on de processes to be taken when next I was ready to fly. Now dat I wanna fly on Friday I'm being told dat I have to pay 78k for next available flight on Friday. Dat money is just too much.
