Shameless people in power and authority in Nigeria

Lies, show us the cctv footage and the name of the officers... Audio firing...

Shameless bunch!

Sack them

Na today ?

That is what all of them does.. Maybe its wrong this time because its 14 years old child.

I love this, those immigration officers are purely pocket pickers.

I almost missed my flight last year June,due for o same reason.Abuja airport is the same as Lagos

SHAMELESS OFFICERS EXTORTING A CHILD WHO IS NOT EVEN UP TO THEIR CHILDREN. AND THIS IS WHAT THEY DO ALL YEARS, I HAVE FELL VICTIM SEVERAL TIMES.

When will you deal with your workers who are drug pushers ?

Ban? The right word should either be terminated, fired, or at the least suspended

Nigerians ,we all can be funny atimes when we say things,he was caught for few nairas,what about the extortion going on in the presidency ,senate,house or rep,in most of the ministries and governors offices and so on,A country where thieves rules and boast of it.

All of them are in the same box sack them all.

They do not see anything wrong in what they do, even if babies can talk they are ready to extort them as well, their extortion is an institution phenomenon.

Shameless Officers

Look at airport, like shopping plaza.

How much does it cost to fix surveillance cameras in everything government establishments ? Those fools need to be exposed on social media platforms

This is about the dumbest penalty meted by an agencies to erring officers who extorted a minor when traveling. The penalty is so sickling it suggest the agency is complicit in such act. At least they shd be demoted or outrightly dismissed. So they posted elsewhere to continue.

So they can't be prosecuted or what? Can you imagine!!!

So embarrassing. A minor. It's a shame.

9ija airports especially Lagos is something else. I told myself I won't go there again. I remember as if it was yesterday what these immigration officers did to me and my wife who was on her first visit to 9ija. I ask God not to let me go there again.

People that can even extort dead people. Tufiakwa.

That's it?.?.?.?.?

As if it will be the first officer or first time such is happening.

Good move

Only in nigeria

1. Good that the outcry that was made here has resulted in something tangible. 2. As usual, when events such as this take place, officialdom treats the specific symptoms and pats itself on the back. No plan/process/structure to prevent it from happening again?

When the head is rotten, what do you expect from the body ? Country without shame

She don return the curse?

Those immigration officers at airports are something else. Extortion is their second name. They do everything to get to border and extort travelers

Bans immigration officers 👮‍♀️who go stamped FAAN or Porthealth ?

No be their first time be this All of them na so them dey do

Nigeria’s airport officials could be embarrassing, always looking for opportunities to extort especially at International Wing.

Na the officers of security and government officials are the one doing yahoo than any body.

Frustration, hardship, corruption..... All join.

To get to the root of this problem, all immigration officers should be banned. Their main role is extortion. Very wicked people. Meanwhile, I follow back asap. I sell cement near Nekede Owerri; wholesale and retail.
