My Experience With South African Immigration At Port Of Entry. by Nobody: 12:17pm On Dec 27, 2013
This is my experience to my last trip to south africa, i have been to some other counties in europe and asia.....my first trip to south african was in november, i booked ticket and got on this flight thinking it gonna be a sweet journey.

When getting to OR tambo international airport, we cued for our passport to be stamped on arrival, it's my turn to get my passoort stamped....the immigration officer collected my passport, my new yellow fever card and my hotel reservation.....the next thing he said was that how did i managed to book the hotel, and i replied, my agent booked it for me, the next thing he said was step aside....he did the same thing to another 2 nigerians......the rest of the immigration stamped everyone on the line apart from this cruel guy who refused the 3 of us (nigerians).

Then they took us to a room, we sat there for 2 hours, they did not respond to us, the immigration later guy later came out and took us upstairs where he said we should come sign a paper 1 by 1, they don't even want to hear a word...we all signed and they took us to a detention room where we found some other guys with different storied including 3 nigerians...me i just can't start writing there own side of story too....but i must tell you the south african men don't like nigerians and you need to be aware of this when going there...cuz the immigration office told me that you nigerians come here to take our girls, you going (beck)...ahahahah i was just laughing, they put us back on the afternoon flight to lagos...handed our passport to the pilot, but thank God the visa is still valid and they did nothing to the passport.

When i got to lagos i booked another ticked the next day, i did my hotel reservation at the airport which cost me 50k and i also request a friend who is using the south african passport and also a business owner over there to send me an invitation letter which i print out and his data page, but when getting back to south africa, i was on the same cue again and i quickly sighted a free woman immigration office as a sharp 9ja boy, the lady just asked how long i'm i staying and she stamped my passport without asking for any other thing.....i stayed there for 6days as i have no intention of living in south africa, not even in europe.

This is fast becoming the popular accusation and it's extremely silly. Now we don't have to believe every lie about Nigerians being criminals in some countries grin grin

Nigerians please stop taking their girls na....

grin grin


From Benin, Ghana....the same complaint. Nigerians marrying all their women and leaving left overs for them. grin


Pity the Nigerian men aren't even valued much at home undecided

Nigerian men, pls have mercy and stop taking all their women!

Don't worry, they are being insecure and you should have reported them to higher authorities.

Why are you keeping quite about something so huge It could ruin the country's relationship with Naija if its not dealt with soon. Those guys are manipulating and misusing their power....

If you ain't the type they hating on, then you ain't doing it right. Nigerians stay killin these guys with envy.

Sorry op you had to go through such bs. The "you come here to take our women" part cracks me up. cheesy
Re: My Experience With South African Immigration At Port Of Entry. by whirlwind7(m): 11:41am On Dec 28, 2013
Your "story" left a lot of gaps. What document were you asked to sign? You didnt mention it's contents (assuming you actually read it prior to appending ur signature.)
After you were shipped back to Lagos, you quickly booked another flight next day.
What reason made you do this? Why did you need to go back immediately?
Your narrative made it seem like you went there for pleasure, not business

Even if they grant me a free south African passport, I won't live there, never been there and have no plans of going there. Their men are so lazy, that they can't even satisfy their babes,show them love or even make their dreams come true. They still feel threatened by foreigners especially our 9ja hustling bros (Igbo kwenu) .

I met a lot of south Africans in Europe and they are so proud but when we talked and partied, they confessed that Nigerians got swags but bitterly complained about our desperation to riches even though they are aware of their laziness. Their street boys live on bounty hunting Meaning that they hunt Nigerian dealers ,rob and kill them. They believe it's their birth right since the cash was made from their soil.
