What Could We Call This? Extortion? by stainlink(op): 1:12pm On Jul 18, 2019

I directed my cousin to the Odun State Liaison Office located in Abuja for her state of origin certificate. Only for her to be told that the price of issuance is 10,000 naira which feel is exorbitant.
I even had to speak with the person and categorically told they've been collected the Same amount for over 1 year now.

My question now is:
1. Is it not to high looking at the poverty level of Nigeria
2. What are other states paying
3. Does the Authorities know about this?
4. Is lalasticlala or mynd44 aware of the situation ?

That is how it's supposed to be

I had to ask her to come back. I gave her 2000 naira telling her it couldn't be more than a thousand naira.

Transportation wasted angry
