As shared by Balewa:

I have never seen a VISA refusal letter this sad and detailed. Is this the shege Nigerians are experiencing now?

The Embassy makes the following assessment. You have applied for a Schengen entry visa with the intention of visiting Sweden for 14 days for tourism purposes.

Initially, the Embassy notes that the security situation in Nigeria is uncertain and there is an ongoing economic crisis in the country. There is therefore a high risk that Nigerian citizens do not leave the territory of the Member States before the expiry of the visa applied for. The applicant must therefore be well established in their home country to be able to be granted a visa.

The Embassy also wants to highlight that trade in forged documents by private individuals and corruption in connection with the issuing of documents by the authorities is very common in Nigeria. Available country information indicates that the possession of a Nigerian id-document, even certified ones, does not guarantee the correct identity of a person. Many businesses specialize in issuing forged documents, and it is neither difficult nor expensive to obtain, for example a forged driving licence or other documents that in turn can be used to obtain for example a passport or birth certificate. According to investigations, there is a particularly brisk trade in forged documents in Benin City in Edo state (Country of origin information report Nigeria, March 2021, p. 42)

The Embassy notes that you have not visited the Schengen area previously and subsequently returned to your home country. The fact that you previously have not visited the Schengen area cannot single-handedly constitute ground for refusal of the application for an entry visa. It is however relevant in assessing your purpose and importance of your intended visit to Schengen.
You have stated that you have your own company and you have submitted certificates regarding the company.

However, you have not shown what assets the company has, that you have access to the assets or that you have a monthly income from the business.

You have also provided bank statements. Regardless of said bank statements being genuine, bank statements alone cannot prove that you are well established since a bank balance is also considered movable assets, and data therefore not tie you to your home country.

Further more, the bank statements do not show that your financial situation has been stable over a longer period of time. You have also not shown any personal ownership of property or other financial ties to your home country. All in all, the Embassy finds that you have not shown that you have regular incomes and/or such assets that your financial situation can be considered stable.

Furthermore, the Embassy considers the stated purpose of your trip to be questionable. You have submitted a hotel booking, but no information has been provided regarding what you plan to do and sec during your time in Sweden. The Embassy concludes that you have not been able to justify the Betecknint 52593708 purpose and conditions of the intended stay in Sweden.

Like mentioned above, you have previously never visited the Schengen area and subsequently returned to your home country. No safe conclusions can consequently be made regarding your intention to leave the Schengen area before the expiry of a visa. The Embassy concludes that against this background, especially considering the general socioeconomic situation in Nigeria, you have failed to show that you are well established in your home country. Based on the circumstances mentioned the Embassy also concludes that you have not been able to justify the purpose of your intended stay.
Your application for a Schengen entry visa is refused.

I don't think it is well.
Just look at how they painted Nigeria.
I hope the leadership of Nigeria see this and take steps to re-project a cleaner global image.
If nothing is done, Nigerians will be barred even from entering Ghana in the nearest future.

This is sad. I believe 💯 that Nigeria would be a great nation very soon. One of the things we can do is to stay back and build our country and take it back from the political sycophant.

One of the ways in which can do this is to register our business and company with the Corporate Affairs Commission (CAC)

After una don step into the polling unit with sentiment and tribalism then the next thing una go dey find where una want hide una head

Una go no where....I love the fact that it was stated that the reason your were denied visa was because of economic situation of Nigeria

A friend of mine in Ghana told me before the election that if tinubu gets up to 100 thousands vote after what Apc, tinubu and Buhari brought upon us in the last eight years then it means we the masses are wicked

Lol....

Na why I dey always say na Northerner get evidence to leave the country pass imagine someone having 50acres of farm Land, Someone with 500cow applying for Visa dey know he has something at home he can't just leave like that...

That's why they're never desperate Abt leaving the country...

If na visit forget it...

Pls Nigerians stop wasting your money if you are just a hustler trying to japa to EU, UK or US.. chancing of refusing the visit visa is high... rather save more and invest in Studies or work visa... those are ur best bet..

I hav spoke with an EU lady that even advice young Nigerians to stop applying for tourist visa rather studies...

May God help us all

Schengen are always denying young Nigerians visa..

I have encountered similar experience 2 yrs ago.

The surest root to japa to Europe is through croatia or Bulgaria, dey don't deny visa due to low applicants.

Hmmm

It's even affecting lots of Nigerians applying for residency in many parts of Europe.
I have seen them doubt passports verifiably issued by Nigeria embassies in Europe.

They said while the passport may be genuine, the documents presented to get it issued "might be fake". Because the immigrant initially entered irregularly. They do not trust weak Nigerian institutions, home and abroad, to do a thorough job.

The European country's embassy in Nigeria sent staff to verify family in 9ja. That is another racket by the Nigerian staff they use.

Unless those Nigerian staff get enough bribe, they will submit to the embassy that they can't confirm that the family is genuine. Even after seeing childhood and teenage pictures of the immigrant taken with those family members, gone to their schools, interviewed old friends, etc. That way, the Nigerian staff may be sent several times to verify same person. More visits mean more money paid to them by the European embassy/consulate and more bribe because the applicant and family will become desperate.

It dragged on and on for years.

9ja don cast tey tey.

Nigeria shall soon be Greater than most European Countries. Free yourself from mental Slavery and know the unpopularized Truths. When Nigeria was a true Federation of miniCountries, Yoruba Nation with Awolowo as our President (Western Region Premier) then developed so fast as the first ever in Africa to have Oluwa Glass Manufacturing Industry, Vehicle Tyres Manufacturing Industry, Textile Manufacturing Industry, etc. Did you know that Yoruba Land had TV Stations(which Nigeria later took over and reNamed NTA) and Telephone System Communications before some European Countries?! Did you know that The Buildings being used by Nigerian Moslem Pilgrims in Mecca, Nigerian Christian Pilgrims in Jerusalem, Nigerian Embassy in UK, and many other Nigerian Embassies Buildings in Different Countries were bought with Yoruba People's Money from Productive Yoruba Land and used as Official Places of Yorubas in those Countries before the Federation System was cancelled and Nigeria was forced to become 1 Singular Entity headed by Aguyi Ironsi and his Government now Converted all these International Yoruba Properties to Nigerian Property?! It is the envy of the Speed at which Awolowo was implementing his Vow to make Yoruba Land more Industrialized than America and most Europe that made the satanic Envious ones to Force the different Nigerian Regions into this Wicked Heartless Marriage of 1 Nigeria that we are all suffering from till date.

Since Tinubu wear glasses to make him look like Nigeria's modern Awowolo, let's believe that he shall surely make this Country truly Industrialized and Great. Did you know that there are Historical British Documents (See one of the attached UK Document below) that shows that Britain once looked up to Nigeria for Help at the Time when the Great Obafemi Awolowo was in charge of some Affairs of Nigeria as a whole? Imagine how Great Nigeria would have been by now and how so wonderfully Proud you would have been as a Nigerian if Awolowo had become Nigeria's President! Like if you believe that Nigeria can truly become the Great Giant of Africa.
