Ezniteadin:This is not about government. This collect collect is the culture in Nigeria.You ask for directions, you have to part with something.You help someobe across the road something has to exchange hands. Why is this surprising. Its the same even in Abuja airport maybe not as aggressive but its there... oga something for the boys is on every official's lips. Even carts used to convey load that is supposed to be free you have to give something. 7 Likes |

CCTV and High powered Microphones. 20M naira should be enough to cover the cost of wiring up each terminal. The immigration points at entry and departure should be covered first. 5 Likes |

Few years back, I think when Abubakar the retired IG was at Zone 2 Lagos , a police officer was discussing with one man and because the woman was in a hurry he wanted to give the officer money for lunch ,I think they were friend .The policeman objected and said the whole Zone 2 is covered with CCTV and someone was Manning it 24/7 and they will take it as bribe only to be summon for explanation. If the airport is wired completely and outsource to a private company to manage, documents and report ,the nonsense will stop . It is very embarrassing when I pass through the place looking at how foreigners are shamelessly stressed and literally extorted. The immigration, airport officials and even the airline officials will find one or two excuse to make your little stay at the airport a hell on Earth . 14 Likes |

Ezniteadin:its so sad that the beggarly nature of Nigerians is exhibited each time I am at that airport and indeed all the airports in Nigeria. Its so shameful. They beg like they are not paid salary for their work at the airports. I was so embarrassed that I had to give then some money last Saturday that I got in. Its so sad. All my colleague complained of the same experience and u feel government should do something about this bad attitude of our airport staff. Its appauling and totally demeaning. Shame to Buhari and his hunger infested gvt 10 Likes |

ifyalways: I think it depends on the airport. It's free at Houphet Boigny, Oliver Tambo and Heathrow as well as in Chicago but not free in Boston and Philadelphia if you are arriving. In fact, at both airports it's $5 per trolley! 1 Like |

Obalende:within the arrival hall there are several stands for taxi hire. You go outside to get a taxi then you are on your own. Better still uber or taxify. You won't wait more than 5min cos one or two are always around. |

Sorry, don't get confused about the money u put in to get the trolley in abroad u are picking up, after u return d trolley to drop off then u get ur money bk.

Those shameless goats tried to do same to me. I came back from Canada a couple yrs back and I was pushing my cart away towards the exit door when an immigration officer, a lady for that matter blocked my way & ordered me to open my luggages after I had been thoroughly checked and cleared to go by the other officials who also tried to delay me after they asked me to find them something and I said I had none to spare. I did as the lady officer instructed and she saw everything I came back with which included about 3 laptops, clothings and some shoes. I intended to gift 2 of the laptops out to some friends and then retain the other for myself. So she demanded for the receipts of purchase and I handed them to her. To my surprise she told me that I'm gonna have to pay her for importation tax which as at then was 50% of the cost of each item I came back with according to her. As a naija born and bred I tell am say lie - lie that one no go happen. If she like make she confiscate everything I get say I ready to go anywhere with her. She just look me finish say abeg make I carry my wahala go jor.... 15 Likes 1 Share |

This is one of the reasons I hate coming to Nigeria. The harassment and brazen extortion makes me ashamed to be a black man,especially when you see Nigerian men and women carrying the bags of Lebanese, chinks, and anyone with light skin, but then those same people are the ones that will refuse to render help where and when needed or even take advantage of people's situations. I had 12k naira on entering the airport for my flight to Amsterdam, on getting to duty free, I had 1k left, Nigerian customs and other parasites sucked 11k off. Wtf. 12 Likes |
