How it happened

The parcel which contained local herbs was to be delivered to Mr Azeez Rasheed of 8913 Maplebrook Road, Randallstown MD, 21133, Maryland, Baltimore, USA.

Parcel not delivered nor returned

However, close to six months after, the parcel is yet to be delivered or returned to Kazeem. He told Legit.ng that he has lodged several complaints to no avail. He said:

"I know I'm not the only person facing this kind of rubbish act from Nigerian Postal Service, but a lot of people don't know who to talk to."

In an effort to recover his herbs, Kazeem said he has contacted the United States Postal Service to know if the parcel has arrived in the US, but he got a negative answer. Legit.ng also got hold of the email sent to Kazeem by USPS. It was sent on the 12th of April, 2021 by one Audrey Brotherton of the Complaints and Inquiry Department. It confirmed that the parcel has not left Nigeria, but that it was prepared for January 5, 2022.

When he received the email from the USPS, he took it to NIPOST who reasured him that the parcel would be delivered. His words:

"Until I get the email reply from USPS that the tracking number of the items shows that the parcel is not in the USA. I went back to them with the copy of the email, they now said I should tell my sister and her husband that they will get it."

What Kezeem wants

As it stands now, Kazeem said he wants a refund of the money he paid as delivery fees since NIPOST has failed to do its job.

"They should refund my money back. I know they have games on some parcel during that last year's Xmas and it is obvious now."
