How have you been? I do agree the inmigration officials may have been emboldened since trump came in but emboldened to do their job. I still have not see any proof Nigerians are targeted as Dabiri or some here are claiming. Even during and before Obama Nigerians as well other nationals have been turned back or pulled aside for further questions of deemed necessary and some of the cases people are putting up do not pass scrutiny in my opinion. Look at below post from someone who got turned back and he too will claim it's because of trump but his story in from of the border official doesn't even hold up. Dear VO I had a terrible experience in new York airport. I was refused entry. Reason been my relative address had changed from when I applied for the visa. I was supposed to stay for 13 days. The officer tried to contact the number and address on the form without success. My uncle had told me his wife will receive me. The number he gave me was that of the girlfriend in new York and I think that's where the problem started. The reason for this I guess its because of the wife's attitude problem. But the officer new she was not exactly the wife. When he went tru my uncles status he was able to get his wife number At that time the wife was already trying to reach me. The wife was in california and she told the cbp officer that she will buy me a ticket to LA. But at that point the guys mind was made up. I had to withdraw my visas voluntarily so as not to be forced out and banned. The officer said i can contact the VO in Nigeria. My questions Can I explain what happened to the Vo and still be able to apply in the future. If yes how do I go about it. I was only made to know i was refused entry. I don't know if I was banned. If I still want to attend the visit coz am currently on 4wks leave wish just started. How do I go about it. This was my first trip outside Nigeria and I had boasted about in the office. Just don't know how to face that. Lol. I also want the record set straight as I will be eligible for secondment overseas in my firm next year. It might be in our USA office. I don't want it to affect me when the opportunity comes. Need your advice please Lucasbalo: |

ttmacoy:You are absolutely correct. I traveled often because of my job and I visit my parents every Xmas, you will be shocked at the kind of questions these ICE throw at you even though I have been using Blue all my life. Some of them are just on ego trip being boosted by Trump anti immigration stance. 3 Likes |

Many of you were celebrating Trump's victory, it has even started and many are complaining. Welcome to the new America. |

lebete3000: Mr. Discernment: Could you lecture me on the difference between a nation and a country? |
Re: Struggles Of Two Nigerians At A US Airport by lebete3000: 9:00am On Mar 11, 2017 |
chukxie: A Nation is an "association" of people dat are happy and interested in being 2geda thereby working in concerted effort with an aim 2 bring success and honour to the association which each member in turn enjoys e.g USA and most developed countries. A Country on the other hand is a "group" of people with no interest in being together and are governed by people with selfish interest with no concern in d betterment of the association but each man just trying to chop his own e.g Nigeria and most African countries. |

Re: Struggles Of Two Nigerians At A US Airport by lebete3000: 11:34am On Mar 11, 2017 |
iukpe: A Zoo is where anything goes. Corruption in all strata of the government and anyone with power can do as he/she likes. Conniving & Brutalizing ppl to achieve their devious whims and caprice. It's no difference with life in d Jungle where the only thing a Lion thinks on seeing a Zebra is to eat it up. |

Note that there is Delta in Nigeria and it flies directly to Atlanta. Not New York. Only Arik use to fly directly to new York. United was the airline that pulled out of Nigeria and they only use to fly to Houston, Texas. Let's endeavour to get our facts right before posting online. berrystunn: 1 Like |

Note that a valid U.S visa does not guarantee entry into the United States. Infact, the main interview is that one at the Point of Entry (POE). Also, if there are inconsistencies in your story or something does not add up, you can be sent back. I do not think these cases are tied to the Trump temporary ban on certain countries. Check out the ratio of Nigerians travelling to those denied entry. We will see that it is not that high. Hundreds if not thousands of Nigerians are on a flight more that 5 - 6 days a week going to the US and about 4-6 get denied entry which has been happening since forever and all of a sudden we think it's because of the temporary ban? Endeavour to get your papers intact and be consistent in your plans so that you will have no issues. 2 Likes |
