Name and shame. Name the travel agency. That's one way to stop them.

@OP, E Pele. Not new. Most foreign airlines will accept Cc payment but you must present yourself physically with the cc and valid identification before the travel date at any of their offices closest to you for final validation.
One of the pains of being a Nigerian.

An average Nigerian is a criminal. Either directly or indirectly.

I have never encountered this issue before and neither have I been asked to present myself to their office/agent for any validation before my intended day of travel.

Maybe it’s because I book with the BA Amex card sha undecided

hmmmm, why have I not experienced this before? Though I don’t use agents, I book directly online and no problem.

I have even used my CC to book for friends and families for local and international travel; I just email them the itinerary and they are good to go once they show up at the Airport.

I'm not sure anything can be done to clear the tarnished image of Nigeria. Average white sees Nigerian as scammed, it's sad!

Most airlines will ask you to make sure you come to the airport with the credit card when boarding and the name must be same with what you have on your passport
