A friend of mine called me some months ago from one of the Asian countries. He said he was planning to come home to renew his int'l passport. Ha! I was perplexed. because u want to renew ur passport u wan waste over half a million naira! He explained that he has been to the Nigerian Embassy over there and they said they can't do it. He travelled to neighbouring countries, still the same thing. I was just disappointed. In this age and time! So I decided to call the immigration office with a number I got off their website. To my dismay, the responder said I wasn't allowed to call this number. and I am like, why then did u put it up? I finally decided to go to one of their offices to make enquiry. Only for me to be told that 'Nigeria presently have no passport materials' Haaaa!!! that was a killing moment. Was just speechless. Abeg where are we going in this Nation. I don't know for sure if what they said is true. but if it is the truth, then its truly pitiable.
