A Nigerian man on Twitter has revealed how a lady was deported and got banned for 5 years from the US after she was caught with two boxes full of weaves.

According to US immigration laws, a person on a student visa is not allowed to work or do anything related to business without proper authorization.

Read the tweets below;
"Imagine getting admitted into a US Uni for Masters, getting your visa and all that...only to be sent back by immigration & flagged for 5 years because you carried so many weaves in your box to go sell there.

Tears

She had learned hairdressing and was told braiding & all that costs a lot over there. Trying to cash out, aunty carried two boxes filled with weaves. More weaves than clothing.

"What's a student doing with all of these?"

"My friends told me to bring them"
...

"But on your application form, you said you have no friends or family here?"

"Errr..."

"Turn around plis dear, we'll put you on the next available flight back to Lagos"

Heya. I'm just hearing of such for the first time. Forget that PMB called us lazy yoots, we could be hardworking and tenacious when we want to.

In a bid to survive, we do both good and evil. Plus the one that'll land us inside wahala, just like the lady in this story. She carried weaves to sell and braid hair. All to sustain herself and send money to folks back home.

Lack of orientation was her achilles heel. Lesson learnt.

Some ladies no need carry weaves, wetin them dey use hustle na follow come. If you know, you know

Sorry sis. You busted yourself.

This is what happens when ur village people hold ur case file with palm oil hand , u can't escape except God put hand

Eya. Hustle must pay.

Sorry.
That's why is important to know more about the country you're travelling to,their dos and don'ts ,most countries are not like Nigeria where anything goes.

and he wil b saying 'youth(s) are lazy'... God dey.

sorry dear, hop you'v learnt your lesson?

its the trump era.

lots of hate for immigrants out in the open. and ICE agents have been empowered.

Her mistake was she put on her information paper that she don't have friends there & only to find out "her friends told her to bring them weaves"....

This is very crucial u know... Whatever u wrote in ur information slip, u have to stick to it.. Coz on her case, she lied sha...


If y'all watched a series called Cross Boarder , you will truly understand how strict the US & Canada immigrations...
