Which of the passport office is most efficient amd faster,FESTAC or IKOYI..?

I have no idea bro/sis.
just go through the thread you may come across someone

chygoz3:
When you tell someone the way out the extortion and they rebuke it without even attempting anything, you leave the person alone. I have mentioned several times on the thread how effective the twitter handle was but they kept doubting it.

^^^^
Good job you are doing on this thread by letting people know that they have options and do not have to accept shoddy treatment.

I went through the entire process online (like I always do) and I was given an interview appointment date on my passport e-application form. I will be going for my appointment in a couple of days. I am assuming you were also given an interview date on your application and you went along with your documents (photos, passport payment acknowledgement slip, application form etc.) on your interview date? I do not intend to go to that place more than once before collection of the passport.

Yes i did. I only visited the office twice: one on the date of interview and then when i went for collection.
What i advise you to do is to note the name of officer that may want to ask any money from you if you encounter such. While at the office, be prepared to tweet to their handle if you encounter any challenges. I have read about incidences with the Alausa office whereby people who paid online are asked to come back at a later date for capturing. If you are told something similar, make it known immediately to the twitter handle.

But I wI'll advice yu never to made mention of anything called twitter while inside the office....I will still share my experience at Alausa's office

It was a funny but useless one

Hi guys..please a friend lost her passport days back..can she just walk in to any immigration office and get another passport booklet or must she go to their headquarters in Abuja?

She will have to visit the headquarters at Abuja, its also advisable she obtains a police report, and court affidavit and both should contain the lost passport's number

Yeah here comes my experience at the IKEJA ALAUSA OFFICE
My interview was scheduled to hold on the 12th of Nov, I was prepared for any nonsense that might comes my way but fortunately there was no problem not until when I mentioned the word "twitter" to their hearing.

Me: good morning
Officer: replied

Me: I am here for my interview which is scheduled to hold here today sir
Officer: did yu pay online?

Me: yes sir I did
Officer: oya goan get a file and arrange yur documents orderly

Me: okay sir

After some few minutes....when I was done with the said instructions

Me: I am done with it sir, what next sir
Officer: oga abeg no rush me ooo...no be me talk say make yu do online payment's

Me: sorry sir, what next?
Officer: collected the file, where is the original certificate of yur state of origin

Me: I'm not with it sir.....bcoz it is far from me but I have it scanned on my fone

Me trying to show him on my phone and he cut me short and said "I don't know if dey will approve it ooo"

Officer: oga com back for your capturing
Me: when sir

Officer: I will call yu
Me: (inside my mind I knew where he was driving to) oga I will give yu 1k to help me get it approved

NB: I offered him the 1k bcoz I was not with my original certificate of origin for sightseeing

Officer: collected my file and left for few minutes.
Oga come next week for capturing

Me: but I was told that I can have my capturing today via TWITTER
Officer: started ranting.....oga do yu want to report me?

Me: if I wanted to....I would have.....is that not yur name on yur badge? (And my phone rang which I picked)
Officer: yes it is my name....do whatever yu want to do

Me: I am not fighting yu....am i?
Officer: rant further (showing a little sign of being scared or something)

He left the servicom unit and started entering different offices to report......that one of those people that use to report them to Abuja is around and that I just a received a call from them...my file was dumped for hours

Me: I started moving from one office to another to know the stage at which my file is......to my surprise it had not even passed the first stage......Now I knew there was a problem bcoz by now the time is about 3:50pm.

I tried my best to know what was the reason behind the delayed in my file and no one at all even looked at me once not to talk of twice

NB: they were all busy with the people that paid 28k at the office and many of these people met me there

Latter bcoz I refused to quit I was told to come the following day b4 9am bcoz they have closed for that day which is on Monday

Day 2
I got there few minutes after 9am
I went straight to the office where they vet and approved files but to my surprise the case had gone viral beyond my imagination in fact they were expecting me and they already had plans

Me: good morning
OfficerB: replied

Me: I narrated my story of what happened the previous day and why I was told to come early today for capturing
OfficerC: come with me

Me and about 3 officers left for a particular office.....and on getting there THE REAL DRAMA began

OfficerB: oga na the criminal be this
OfficerA: the one we told yu about sir
Me: (I was surprised)....oga I am not a criminal ooo! And I explained what happened.

Oga: shut up!!!
Who are you?

Me: I explained.

Oga: where is your ID card?
Me: I am a corper......I redeployed.....so no ID card yet

Oga: yu are an imposter
Me: how sir?

Oga: so you have the guts to be questioning me and he called on the PRO
The PRO entered (making about 5 officers against only me)

Write the NYSC office about this criminal man and his misconduct....... (he asked ).....where is that hard drugs yu caught on him (the other officer replied with it)
Now I was fully aware of what's going on

I tried removing my phone from my pocket....they rushed me and seized my phone (another story again)

Please guys I will continue later....the story is ain't funny oooo

This is some serious story. See accusation o.

I reported the matter to the twitter account and within 3hrs I was attended to. I was asked to go see the Passport control officer who immediately started to process the passport. I was asked to pick it up on Tuesday next week.

Thanks for your guidance all
