siena, what i was saying was that when i was arriving in nigeria, i presented my nigerian passport to them.
On my way back, i will use my british passport, but last time when I produced my British passport, they said tehy require proof of how I was allowed stay in Nigeria so I had to bring out my Nigerian passport. My fear is that at the airport, because my Nigerian passport is invalid, I'm not allowed to leave

Aroy1, I'll try my best to get express processing but my dad's paying for the new e-passport and he's convinced that even if my passports don't arrive in time, things will be OK

Hey guys,
I'm a Nigerian-born UK citizen having lived in UK all my life minus the first 10 months or so. I arrived in Nigeria on July 13th this year and I'm due to leave on August 16th morning, 6 days away. Upon arriving in Nigeria, I was told that I need an e-passport to leave the country.My passport runs till april 2012, but due to stipulations in place now technically invalid. I did not show immigration my British passport so they may be unaware that I'm dual nationality.
My e-passport will not start processing till thursday so i may not recieve my passport by the monday as i travel tuesday morning.
My question is when trying to travel back to UK,am I likely to be stopped from getting on my flight if my e-passport doesn't come in time even though I hold a valid UK passport?
