One observation though; your luggage is already checked in so at what point does this take place?

Perhaps after the CBP conducted a search in her absence?

It seems that she got deported because she lied that she had no friend there whereas she did...
Good liars must have good memories. She forgot what she first said at the embassy.

America has a policy, if u ain't on business permit u can't go sell anything or do business.
Secondly if u say u know no1 in America, u shouldn't carry goods to sell..
This girl made a big bloopers.
Now all d money gone...
She could have made it to uni n then make a shipment of weaves into america...
She didn't have a good advicer. This is why i watch border patrol on CBS. U have to know the dos n donts
If u going on student visa, u r not expected to go sell anything.

Did she declare them to customs and pay the duty on the items? Did she have the relevant papers to do business there?

I said she should have said for personal use using saving money as an excuse instead of saying for a friend when she already said she had no one over there, if you're going to lie about something make it a clean one, the "i don't have any friend then i want to give it to a friend" made them deport her and not because of how plenty the weaves were.

I disagree with your last assertion
The CBP officers decide whether you can be recieved into US or not base on their own prerogative, it could range between your earlier point to something as simple as too much or too little luggage. I live in the state and talking from personal experience. Fact

There are millions of weaves in in malls and stores all over US so the excuse sometimes might sounds lame to the CBP officer on duty at that moment.

Make village remote no catch us period.

exactly. Read the last part. She said "my friends told me to bring them" to which customs replied "but in your application, you said you had no friends here". She lied and it is frowned heavily upon by immigration.

Because of weaves?

But you fit enter naija with bomb and AK-47 sef embarassed

not because of weaves. She lied in her application and she got her lie busted. In her application, she said she has no friends in d US, then she tells immigration her friends asked her to bring them. Automatically if they find out about that lie that means your original motive to them might be based on falsehood.

Even at that, there are limits lawfully you can carry for personal use, certainly not two boxes that is automatically flagged as business; which contradicts her visa application and intents fir traveling.

If you are going to the US for business, apply for business visa, if it to work apply for work visa and if you are going for study, then don’t bring with you anything that will suggest that you want to engage in business or look for work.

E.g. chat your phone chat history, emails, etc and remove anything that would betray your visa designated intents for traveling and you should not have resume on your person, belongings, phone or laptop.

You can be checked after collecting your bags and before leaving the custom area.

Poor girl. As harsh and heartwrenching as it is, the deportation was in order, especially under the current anti-immigration environment.
She got her Visa as student. This means and is clearly stated that she is not eligible for any type of employment , business or income earning venture. Then she arrives with 2 suitcases willed with hair, an obvious indication that the hair was for commercial purposes. Then the lie about bringing them for a friend, which she had earlier in her forms said she didn't have any.
The customs and the immigration officers at the US airports have the absolute discretion to deport anyone where they see or suspect a contradiction or deciet in the information , acts or behavior of a passenger coming into the US.

Not true, she still would have been deported on account of the weavon alone.

Because the circumstantial evidence clearly points to commercial intents, but catching her in a lie is not circumstantial, she was caught in the very act, which carries more weight and self evident.

point of entry questions is also an interview, and are asked based on the information you gave a consular at the embassy.

officer- welcome to america,

student- thank you.

officer- why so much weaves in your possession

student- for personal use since its expensive here.

that's the correct answer she should have given.

check the last part. The immigration officer had to refer back to her application where she said she had no Friends or family after which she was made to turn back based on that lie. If it was the weaves, they simply would have impounded them.

If they established a business intent, they will deport her also on account of the weavon along.

Impounding items or fining travelers is for bringing in excess or prohibited items that don’t contradict the intent if their visa....if a Green Card holder had brought in same amount of weavon, they would had impound them and fine her or fine her, have her pay import duties and release the items back to her, because a Green Card visa supports business ventures.

If she had told the interviewing officer is Lagos that, by the way...she is a hair dresser and intent to make small small change while in the US from hair dressing, she would not had been given a visa, because that intent contradicts a student visa; same thing the immigration agent would have established, they will politely tell her to go back to Nigeria and apply for business visa.

point of entry.... Your luggage slides through a scanner and if anything looks suspicious, they will call you to another point and open your bags.

Although this isnt the first time I've heard of a story like this, I think its is a very flimsy reason to deport or ban a person; those immigration guys are just heartless idiots.
