I have been looking for an opportunity like this to express myself about this disgusting thing. The customs and immigration are the most culpable. Once they see that your BAT is not up to what you should travel with they will start by saying you cannot travel else you give them something and they still force you to part with it. In cases where you have more than $1000 on you and you are a first time traveller, you are simply subjected to all manners of harassment. On arrival they will remove the jacket on your passport and expect you to put something inside it for them. I plan to record them one day and straight up here their faces will show. Bunch of national disgrace specimens. 1 Like |

lagosrd: Is there a recommended amount for BAT? |
Re: Bribe Collection At Murtala Muhammed International Airport by lagosrd: 4:07pm On Aug 20, 2017 |
asid:Yes it's $1000. Uno they give some useless and baseless excuses such as : You want to go abroad to disgrace nigeria, start begging for money, etc etc |
Re: Bribe Collection At Murtala Muhammed International Airport by lagosrd: 4:08pm On Aug 20, 2017 |
asid:Yes it's $1000. Or it's equivalent in foreign denominations. Uno they give some useless and baseless excuses such as : You want to go abroad to disgrace nigeria, start begging for money, etc etc |

CanadianNurse:BTA varies with different countries and even most times your visa type and conditions. |
Re: Bribe Collection At Murtala Muhammed International Airport by CanadianNurse: 9:36pm On Aug 20, 2017 |
femijck:so what's BTA for a student travelling to Canada on study permit? |
Re: Bribe Collection At Murtala Muhammed International Airport by lagosrd: 10:11pm On Aug 20, 2017 |
CanadianNurse: Was so surprised too but what will you do, already your flight is about to depart. |
Re: Bribe Collection At Murtala Muhammed International Airport by femijck(m): 11:03pm On Aug 20, 2017 |
CanadianNurse:I don't know that and I haven't been to Canada....and if u watch some of those boarder security TV show and u hear the customs or immigration asking them how much they've gat on them, that's the BTA they want to know.... If u are on a tourist or any or any temporary visa, and u do not have any or enough BTA. ..That raise a red flag already......u can travel many times and not be asked, but that does mean people haven't been denied entry coz of it. Best way is to tell them what u have and tell them you've gat ur cards as well.. |

They should just legally state it in our constitution and give it a name "Value Added Bribe" it is very common in d airport and immigration office in Abuja, everybody wants to eat u dry just because they saw u traveling via airport, that's how they stole my sister inlaw's $2,000 on arrival at d airport |

When you go to a hotel in America to have a meal, it is the expectation of the waitress or waiter that served you to expect a tip why do we act like Nigerians are so evil to expect tips, Is that not corruption? |
Re: Bribe Collection At Murtala Muhammed International Airport by claremont(m): 11:38pm On Aug 21, 2017 |
Pidgin2: A Tip is different from a bribe. A tip is given AFTER a meal at a restaurant, and it's not compulsory to give a tip in order to get a good service. Anyone who has been to a restaurant in America will know that tips are designed to reward good service by waiters/waitresses, they are not mandatory to get good service. It doesn't just apply to restaurants, tips are normal in all service delivery sectors in most advanced societies (exception of the UK) e.g. I gave a tip to a taxi driver when I visited America, the taxi driver was a naturalized American originally from Edo state, Nigeria. On the other hand, what we do in Nigeria is a bribe. A bribe is given PRIOR to service been obtained, and it's mandatory in order to get good service and/or expedite normal service delivery. That's corruption, an example of a broken society is one in which the police require you to ''drop a little sontin'' in order for them to investigate a crime perpetuated against you. Tips and bribes are two very different things, no reason to misconstrue either as being the same as the other. 5 Likes 1 Share |
