I know the travel certificate.
But it does not stand as a passport.

Hello ugosample, so the ecowas certificate can't be used as a passport? Because a friend of mine used it to register for nysc we are all scared he might be turned away at camp

Hope this is nt coming too late?
1.Where in lagos are u coming?Join Bus frm oshodi to mile 2 #100,align frm d last bustop,trek a little straight,u wil see a new constructed fly over bridge,frm there enter seme bus #500.When u get to seme boarder u may choose to cross d boarder wit with okada #700-#1000 or u join vesper #500 but if u have international passport u may use ur leg to cross while tipping d immigratn officers
2.A day is enof for u to do d nidful,so far u leave lagos early
3.It all depends on ur smartness but risky.I wil advise u to open an account with Ecobank and get their ATM card to avoid d risks of carrying physical cash,cos Ecobank is pan-africa bank
4.It depends on ur driver.......some drivers are slowpoke like mikel obi while some are faster like Victor Moses.Bt atmost 2 and half hours.
5.Why nt?u can do that since u are nt into buying and selling @ misebo market.
Hope all these rubbish I wrote can help?Also don't mind my english,I was drop out frm pry 2 and I'm using Jenifa Dairy as my guide in writing

Merci.
