Mindlog:
I feel for that guy that had a $60,000 worth of scholarship but was bounced, guy must be experiencing depression promax right now.

Penboy:


What happens in Indianapolis?

qtguru:


Personally just normal, my colleague was panicking and didn't answer his questions like where he would be staying.

marenkurz:
Don't mind OP, he is not truthful.
No embassy would reject a visa application when you have scholarship from a reputable institution.
It doesn't make sense. I know at least 20 people that has left for the USA with scholarship in the last two years.

marenkurz:
It is a lie. You guys believe everything.

samwillyco1:


The embassy should be made to refund applicants visa fee once rejected by the embassy

Mummyfour:


It was scholarship o.

Infact that one was even more devastating

Cmanforall:

If he got Scholarship of 60k, is it for masters programme of 2 years? Or Bachelors?

Some people make minor mistakes during application. I helped someone who was previously rejected to make a US visa application, and he got it (though he was so tensed because of earlier experience)

emdis:
Pls, Abuja or Lagos? Make we take note now o..

eepeepook:
Lol. One of the reasons I believe heaven wasn't created for the black man. So far na oyibo get the place, dark skin go suffer to enter. I'll visit the US when I make money. For the meantime, make them use others shine.

Mummyfour:
nobody died on that day and people's heads were not broken too as far as I know, just few people that were almost fainting out of frustration.

Abi make I give you the details make you run the story?

Mummyfour:
21st if August, I was at the American embassy for a visa appointment.

From the period spanning 3 hours I was there, nobody left the interview room with a smile or laughter. Almost every one there was rejected.

The funniest thing about the rejection was the verdict on the light blue paper given to the intending travellers which read" you have not demonstrated that you have enough ties to bring you back to Nigeria "

In a layman's terms, it means we are suspecting that you want to japa into the US.

The most painful aspect was a lot of undergraduates that were turned down. A guy that had a $60,000 worth of scholarship was bounced too.

I saw someone who was just going on a study leave from a whole Deloitte where he works in presently in Nigeria being bounced too.
Most of the interviewers didn't even check out relevant documents of the applicants, but just drew their conclusion based on face value.

I was discussing with people and they said inasmuch as the reason for that verdict was baseless and stupid, we Nigerians are viewed as the worst of the worst world citizens to allow access into the US, irrespective of one's qualifications.
We have a government, system and people that are fantastically corrupt.
We have people who engage in and support illegalities.

Our judiciary is biased and is for the highest bidders, and our political system and elections are flawed (none is perfect anywhere in the world) but ours is glaring and very embarrassing.

Our leaders are not patriotic and that is why when we as citizens have our rights trampled on locally or internationally, nothing is done about it.
Nigeria is not regarded as anything again.
In other words, we are just seen as nothing but irritating pollutants.

So for those of you that applaud evil in this land, pray you remain forever in Nigeria because even if it is just to go and visit and come back, they will not allow you.
If you even have a scholarship or any good thing that can take you out of this country, you will be frustrated at the embassy.

And for those of you that left already and are destroying the name of Nigeria, God's punishment awaits you.
And for those that are still making us proud in the US and elsewhere, may God continue to bless your efforts

I rest my case.

He should forever thank his Chi.

Oga they will refund her back.

If they're not corrupt, quota systems means when you attain the set quota you stop selling whatever it is your products are and attend to what you already have. Why collect money when you know you're not going to issue Visas...more like bet9ja if you ask me.

psucc:
The major challenge to this is the involvement of our leaders and government in every corruption module. It's even better now. Let the dust over 2023 elections settled, that's when we will get the real deal

Paracetamol01:
Why not follow through other foreign countries and made it a plan..... like going to Switzerland,then after some years you can now move to your dream land... AMERICA

Earthquakes:


Prepare your documents well and you will have visa. We Nigerians always lie to obtain something.
I know 3 people this year alone that moved to USA.

FreeStuffsNG:

US govt is now very much strict with immigration issues and has even become a political campaign issue. It has absolutely nothing to do with Nigeria!

Go and watch desperate travels on Aljazeera and the one by Anderson Cooper. Sea of heads trekking on foot from everywhere and especially latin America yet Nigerians are not there!

The money Google and co made from Nigeria in 15 months is about N2 Trillion! If Google is making such money here and you are going to beg in their country embassy, u be suegbe according to late Fela!

Runninghare:




You talk as one that is without fault?

Creamypie:
Na these same people go still vote in bad rulers down here when given 1k. They deserve the shit

Mummyfour:
that is my thoughts too.
Why continue to collect visa application fee from people.
Now the rejected people will still reapply.
It is terrible

OGHENAOGIE:
because Messiah obi didn't win with small party others are now bad... When Sam obi was in PDP before... Are u followers not worse off

BigDawsNet:
My advice generally for guys is to try and travel to other countries... get atleast a temporary residency from that country and apply for a US visa... atleast your chances are higher den...

But coming from nigeria with just Nigeria passport... it's based on lucky... US doesn't run based system.. so its based on luck

Creamypie:
mtchew. Who be this goat? Pop off my mention

OGHENAOGIE:
it takes a goat to recognize another idiot... Na my papa get nairaland
