It was an unbelievable experience today at Nnamdi Azikiwe international airport Abuja. My Nephew was scheduled to travel to Japan to study on scholarship given to him by Japanese Government. Everything was fine this morning, he checked in his bags and got his Borden pass immediately he got to immigration, they purposely delayed him until he missed his flight. He never knew that they were expecting him to tip them can you imagine this kind of wickedness in your own country. I have really lost hope in this country called Nigeria.

This is what happens in all Airports in Nigeria, yet nothing is being done by the Aviation sector.

One of the ways we can fight this menace is to always get pictorial evidence. At least let’s shame them online

And he couldn't get the officers name on his tag to file a report?

Are you just going to tell us about "an immigration officer" here while the matter dies off?

Maybe they latched unto his naivety.

If he has visa and got to immigration desk on time, they cant delay him too long to board his flight.

Was something fishy about his visa? The airline would have also announced his name over the microphone before they departed as a last call.

That was my anger with him. He got so confused that pick the lady's name. Right he is diverstated, I don't just want to complicate issues

I understand his predicament. Imagine missing your flight when you’re in airport. It’s annoying and frustrating.

Not at all even the Japanese ambassador in Nigeria is not happy with the treatment given to him by Nigeria immigration. They are also asking for the name of the officer

can't he carry whoever that is asking for and point him/her to the officer?
