Passport Scam: NIS Officer Took ₦140,000 for Fake Appointment

1 / 4

Late last year I made plans to relocate abroad through a cousin in France. He asked only for an urgent Nigerian passport to secure a job opening. A friend referred me to Ibanga Ita Okon, a Nigeria Immigration Service staff in Abuja. He promised an appointment date within a week for a fee of ₦140,000. I paid ₦100,000 on November 16 and ₦40,000 on November 18. Since then he has ignored my calls. I’ve attached my Moniepoint transfer receipt as proof of payment and shared his contact for anyone with information.
