In the video, the man, accompanied by his children, pleaded for forgiveness from Nigerians. He clarified that the object his wife tore was not an actual passport and assured that his passport remains intact.

He said, “What my wife tore was not a passport. She did not destroy my passport; it was all part of a skit intended to depict a story we wanted to share. I didn’t expect it to go viral.”

He continued, “I ask everyone to understand that this was not a real passport. We respect Nigerian laws and would never violate them by destroying a passport.”

On Monday, the Nigeria Immigration Service announced that it has launched an investigation into the matter. The video, which shows the man’s wife ripping a Nigerian Standard Passport at Murtala Mohammed International Airport (MMIA) in Lagos, prompted the investigation.

DCI Kenneth Udo, the Service’s Public Relations Officer, stated that the individuals involved have been identified and summoned for further questioning. He warned that if the allegations are confirmed, the actions could breach Section 10(b) of the Immigration Act 2015 (as amended), with penalties outlined in Section 10(h) of the Act.

Udo emphasized that the Nigeria Immigration Service is dedicated to enforcing the Immigration Act, maintaining national security, and upholding the integrity of Nigeria’s legal instruments.
