The Nigeria Immigration Service, NIS, is probing the destruction of the country’s passport by a lady and has also invited the woman for questioning.
A viral video captured the female traveller identified as Favour Igiebor destroying the Nigerian Standard Passport – said to belong to her husband at the Murtala Mohammed International Airport, MMIA, in Lagos.
It was initially unclear the reason for her action but in a Monday statement, the NIS spokesman Kenneth Udo said the incident is a violation of the law.
