..YOU NEED TO FIND OUT FIRST HOW LONG IT TOOK BEFORE THE PASSPORT WAS FOUND BY THE AIRLINE STAFF. AS LONG AS THERE NO PASSPORT IN YOUR POSSESSEION, NO COUNTRY WILL ALLOW YOU ENTRY EXCEPT YOU ARE A CITIZEN OR PERMANENT RESIDENCY HOLDER. AS IT INVOLVED A NIGERIAN, NO IMMIGRATION WILL BE WILLING TO INVESTIGATE HIS MATTER FOR TOO LONG BUT DEPORTATION AS SOON AS THEY CAN, PROMISING TO GET BACK TO HIM VIA HIS HOME ADDRESS IN NIGERIA IF PASSPORT FOUND. NO IMMIGRATION WILL BE WILLING TO KEEP HIM AT THE AIRPORT FOR TOO LONG WHILE INVESTIGATING THE CASE OF HIS MISSING PASSPORT. ALL I KNOW IS THAT HIS PASSPORT WAS LATER FOUND WHEN HE HAS ALREADY BEEN SENT BACK TO NIGERIA. HE PROVIDED AN ADDRESS BEFORE DEPORTATION, HENCE HE WAS ABLE TO RECEIVE HIS PASSPORT
