I am not trying to advertise anybody here but till now, it still baffles me.
So on Monday, I went to the ibadan immigration office for passport, I already had my birth certificate and state of origin with my passports intact.
So I met one Mr - - - - - - - - - an immigration officer who told me 28k will get me my passport in 3-9 months but 45k will get me my passport in a week or at most 2 weeks.
Well I went for the 45k own. Filled the form like others, waited and did the interview like others
Did capturing and did all necessary things.
Though it took me almost 5hours of waiting, interview and capturing. I left around 4pm.
I was surprised when Mr - - - - - - - - called me my passport is ready around 2pm the following day that my passport is ready.
I was skeptical cos I followed due process and did exact things others did.
So I went, Mr - ---- called people in the capturing room to help me fast track my passport.
I met alot of people sitting down for verification and thumbprinting to verify,(met about 60 people outside the verification room) I got to know this when I went into the verification /collection room.
So inside the verification room, I met about 8 people, I was the 9th person and in no time, they put my passport in one small engine beside the computer and I was told to thumbprint like others did and I signed and was given my passport.

I had to meet some people to confirm if I wasn't duped and I was told it is the original.
So In my mind I was like, SO THIS IS REALLY POSSIBLE IN NIGERIA?
was told those that paid 28k,their passports are intentionally delayed so they could pay extra charge to collect it.

Ps: my information my filled online by them, the printout with one green form I filled was put inside a folder then taken to the interview room by some immigration officer different from the mr------- I paid.

Nigeria can actually if we do the right thing
Can't imagine how much those guys make in a day, no wonder the slots for immigration jobs are being sold
I met about

The first passport i did back in 2010 was given to me that same day. The renewal in 2015 was the same too. It's not a new thing

Do you think you did the right thing?

Except there isn't paper for printing on ground, once you pay 40-50k your passport will be issued to you same day...

Do you think you did the right thing?

And pls, I need your urgent advice on a destination.

Have been defrauded before on traveling stuff

You are enabling the corrupt system, they can't attend to people paying the standard fees because there are people who are ready to bribe them with bigger money. We all part of the problem.


You can ask your question here, i'm not a fan of pm
