If you regularly have dealings with some government parastatals like Nigerian Immigration, Nigerian Customs, NAFDAC & the Police you'll realize just how mightily corruption has been reigning on the thrones of our institutions. It's very unfortunate. 2 Likes |

After paying N17,800 online, I'm still asked to pay N25,000 at their office for express. It's been 2 weeks and I'm yet to receive my booklet. God will punish that comptroller in a special way! 2 Likes 1 Share |

All of you paying are the real corrupt individuals. You are all impatient and seeking for who to blame for your corrupt tendencies. My wife and I paid for the passport online and I went to the office. I was asked who is 'pushing' it for me, I replied that I didn't pay anyone anything. They kept me there for 6 hours. I took out my laptop and was working while sitting down. After a while I got up and walked to the office of the OIC and told him that I am aware of all the people who paid 50k, 60k etc and who has been issued passports. That why are they keeping us here. One junior office made to talk , I promptly shut him up otherwise I will write him up. Within 45 minutes I was ushered in for my capture and my booklet issued. You are all the ones corrupting the officers. if you all show up there prepared to do the right thing then they will sit up. What happens is that everyone tried to jump the queue and outsmart the other person. Nigerians ACTIVELY look for who to bribe to subvert the process. Nigerians will walk into an office and start looking for who will do it express and fast then come online to point fingers. 5 Likes |

Oga, the system is corrupt . Even you that got it in 45min is favourism! Not everyone can fight people like you did. You were also frustrated just like every other person that opt for bribing them instead of turning the place to boxing ring. If we have a working system , i dont need to pay them a dime or bully them to get things done. latitidejavu: 1 Like |
Re: Passport: Immigration, NIMC Extort Nigerians by latitidejavu: 7:07pm On Sep 14, 2021 |
The system is corrupt because of people that come there to bribe the officers. I got it immediately after my capture because that was the policy. I waited for three weeks before my capture. Do the right thing and insist that the right thing be done! I could afford to pay 70k but I insisted on doing the right thing. You are here blaming 'system' when it's you Nigerians that look for how to mess up the system. Always looking for shortcuts, express, who you know inside an office. florixi: 1 Like |
Re: Passport: Immigration, NIMC Extort Nigerians by florixi: 7:29pm On Sep 14, 2021 |
I insist you getting the passport in 45min after capturing is favourism! The due process is for you to wait till six weeks after capturing before issuance and collection. why didn't you ask them to clear the people before you before they issue your own. My family captured since July up till now not issued yet. so which due process are you talking about?. The problem in nigeria is that everyone sort themselves! whether by bullying or bribery . In abroad once your passport is ready they dhl it to you in your house. you dont need to go to their office to shut or harass anyone , don't you like such a system? so i repeat its the system! latitidejavu: 1 Like |

The funny thing i noticed in this country is that, no matter how religious or claiming holly to God, we don't see lies, fraud, cheat and corruption as a sin! We worship money but claiming godliness thinking we are deceiving God. I have abandoned my re-issue passport for capturing for now until i find someone sure over there to help me push or else the frustration will make you sick. I hope soon it will come out....a guy captured since June still not get it. 1 Like 1 Share |

This is exactly what i went through last week, just to get international passport. Almost all the officials want to extort me, some who are not in the position to extort will seriously be begging u for money. Its just chaotic. The only thing that gave me courage to continue was the fact that I am getting the passport to run away from this corrupt shithole 1 Like |

I paid #40000 for DOB correction and it took more than 3 months to come out. I also did reissue of passport for #75k but collected same day. My neighbour we did the passport together at the same place and date is yet to come out. Is more than 2 months now and he paid 45k 1 Like |
Re: Passport: Immigration, NIMC Extort Nigerians by latitidejavu: 8:38pm On Sep 14, 2021 |
I insist that you do not have the full facts. My passport was in 2020. Then you are given a date online and you go and do your capture and take your passport. Even then you had corrupt Nigerians asking to pay officers to do everything from payment to collection in 24 hours. If the official time is 6 weeks now, then people should wait for 6 weeks! Then plan with that information but no, people want to beat the line. If you have been waiting since July then take it up! Write to every possible anti-corruption office. Make a case out of it if you have the courage which most Nigerians lack. florixi: |

We can actually do something about this, if people will be bold enough to document and share their daily travails on a public domain (like a website to name and shame corrupt officials or a YouTube channel dedicated to exposing corruption in our public sector) citing the corrupt actions of these officials at each service point. Then have people update it with their individual experience on the go, these officials will be forced to do the right thing. We can turn the tables on them and free ourselves from these vermin's in public offices. latitidejavu: 1 Like |

My wife and child can't get their passports because their NIN has not dropped. They even refused to attend to them at Servicom desk until the NIN drops. File has not been opened for them talk more of capturing.. This is getting out of hand, the authorities need to do something about this issue. 1 Like |
