How Can One Denounce Nigerian Citizenship ? by WebSurfer(op):
In all honesty, i have come to a point where i feel i no longer want to be a Nigerian.

Like, I don’t wish to uphold the laws of Nigeria which is meant only for the poor and it’s jungle ways of dealing with people. After-all, there are no benefits of being a Nigerian

How can a judge sentence a man to 21 years for robbing just 2k with a toy gun yet almost almost all the thieving politicians parade free and oppressive.

I am fed up being a Nigerian

This is coming exactly after seeing a judge sentence a man to 21 years for robbing just 2k with a toy gun yet almost almost all the thieving politicians parade free and oppressive.

If you don't have money in Nigeria, at least have sense. The young thief and his dumb lawyers didn't appeal the 21years sentence. They were appealing nonsense.

So if this is your reason why you want to quit, no wahala. But I'd have advised that you strive and get your share of the national cake.

The country is dead, let's join hands together and bury it..

The only usefulness of my passport and my license is for bank identification purposes and travel. Aside that, it is useless

I agree with you that the lawyers were appealing nonsense.

But one quick question. have you had issues with Nigerian police before ? Where they leave you with no option than to use a lawyer they will provide you


Not like they even have anything against you

To renounce your Nigerian citizenship the Constitution states that the president himself has to sign. What are the chances that the document will even reach his desk? My guy it has never happened and never will. You're stuck with Nigeria wether you lt or not
