You cannot travel out of a country without a passport. Given the fact that most Nigerian youths are looking for a way to leave this country, it is not surprising to see the number of people waiting at the Nigerian Immigration office.
Let me give you a little story; when I was serving at Abeokuta, Ogun State, I wanted to go and do my passport because I wanted to leave the country immediately after service for my master. So, when I got there, I didn’t believe my eyes. The place looked like Onitsha main market. They were over 500 people who came to do the exact same thing I came to do.
So, as a big boy who was coming from the small state of Anambra, I decided I wasn’t going to wait o that line. I believed that the immigration office in Anambra will not have a lot of people waiting to do their passport or collect their passport.
Anyways, I was shocked at the number of people I met at the Awka immigration office. People were scattered everywhere. Both inside and outside, and by the road. Some were drinking malt, others eating biscuit. In fact, there was a place you could eat food near there because that the woman selling the food new that people would keep coming.
Anyways, here are the addresses of passport offices in Nigeria and their Locations.

Final Words on Addresses and Location Of All Passport Offices In Nigeria
The addresses of all passport offices in Nigeria has been given above. So, you don’t have to get lost when looking for where to do your passport. Remember that your international passport is your identity when you are in a foreign land. So, remember to take absolute care of your passport.
It’s also an expensive document, so keep them safe.
Before we finish this article, I want to point out a few reasons why you need an international passport. One is that the passport serves as an identity for you both here in Nigeria and outside the country. You can use it to open a bank account even.
Also, you can’t really apply to study abroad without having a passport.
Though getting a passport is expensive, but at a certain time, it is worth getting because you never know what opportunities can come up and you’ll need them.
Applying for a passport can take time, but if you have the money to spend, they can always get you your passport with 24 hours.

How much can I get an international passport here in asaba Delta state
I discovered that some states charges lesser than others. Example; Lagos and Abuja charges 25k on standard passport while Nasarawa state charge 17k on the same passport. It made me feel skeptical about going further to make the payment.
It’s just the Nigerian Scam system. My advice is to get it as soon as you can because the next thing you’d hear is that booklet has finished.
I did mine in Anambra 3 weeks ago. I really want to get my passport as soon as possible.
If there is any remedy kindly let me know.
It has become a real problem. But let’s hope that the situation gets better

Nigeria is a very funny country. Last I heard, it was only Abakaliki office that had paper for passport. I even heard some embassies like the one in US or Canada doesn’t have booklet.
Someone way told in Asaba to pay 100k and get it immediately.
