Igbere TV reports that Odel was asked to come and collect her passport on Friday, but she was unable to do so.
The passport is returned nine days after being detained at Lagos Murtala Mohammed International Airport as he was about to board a plane to the Maldives to celebrate his birthday.
Odele provided free legal assistance to protesters illegally arrested by the authorities.
