Nigerians are just too pathetic... why the hell will a stupid white officer go through my phone.... I know a person whose entire investment brokerage account information. .. never to be shared are present on his phone............. Most nigerians just suffer stupidity × inferiority complex together. .... I can and never will hand over my phone to any idiot.... if Afghans, Iraqis , russians don't have their phone's checked. .. why should a black africn have his.......... god bless you for being sensible

They won't unless you give them cause.

And nothing happened.

I thought u said u keep to ALL the rules and Never can any of these happen to you? How come ur laptop was checked? Why didnt u slap the officer for searching your lappy? Oh, so u have been met with such an incidence before? Smh!!

And where in my post did i say i was i turned back at point of entry. I now see why the Nigerian Government refuse to spend on Education. It's a waste of time.

Boeing777pilot:
Some times innocent people with genuine reasons get turned back, while that is in the minority, it exists.

POE officials possess discretionary powers which you have no clue about so because you get it right, doesn't mean everyone else does but the reasons this guy gave are very much in order.

I have seen someone who was turned back, not a Nigerian though because he said he was given a one month tourist visa meanwhile he had a single entry 10 day visa.

See, my point exactly. The onus is on you to fulfill all requirements because you are provided all the information you need.

justwise:
You don't seems to know much, all the points the op raised are valid.

Yep, you are right. The points are valid for dubious and s.tupid people. At the consulate you are given ample information and the onus is on you to meet up with what is required. As a "pilot" you should know.

Boeing777pilot:
I'm a pilot and I have used many airport terminals in different continents more than your whole family put together.

Then how come you don't know that the points are for dubious people? Pilot my asss.

Boeing777pilot:
Stop exposing your ignorance.
Every thing the guy has said is largely correct.

The fact you have a visa doesn't guarantee you entry and the officials at the point of entry have reasons to deny you entry if they have reasons to.

They possess discretionary powers and people from high risk countries are under more scrutiny so don't comment for the sake of it.

If you are not sure then just keep quiet.

You mumu i swear. Did you read the points at all? Those are points that a dubious person would take into consideration before travelling. How would you know? You probably haven't seen the inside of a terminal else you would have known.

dammilotun:
You don't have to be stupid bro to be taken for secondary inspection. Many times it's to straighten out what their system can't pick once or seem to understand

I have been to tons of countries and not once have i gone through one. Why? because i follow all the rules. The onus is on the traveler to follow the rules as laid out and if you do, you'll be fine. There was only one time i didn't; i left my laptop in my suitcase and powered on. TSA cut the lock, checked everything, found nothing and left a note explaining why they did what they did.

I could never fight for anyone in Nigeria. Nigerians will only use you and dump you in the end. Abiola's case has taught me a lot about Nigeria and Nigerians. Kanu is going to learn first hand what Abiola went through the hard way and all for nothing.

ronald4lif:
Had to read again and I can tell 2, 3, 7 and 8 aren't wrong. On point 2, if you are travelling on a business visa without any money or travellers check with you at the POE, you may be scrutinised and refused entry. This is common in a country like Germany.

On the 3rd point, if you're traveling as a health tourist for instance and you couldn't provide documents of the hospital that invited you and the diagnosis of your ailment, one can be denied entry. So on this I think he's right.

I don't know about U.S but I've heard of stories where heavily pregnant women where denied entry in the UK for not indicating in their visa application that they were pregnant. This, I think is related to his point 8.

Which is why i posted this:

Bollinger:
You are given ample information from the consulate before you travel. I honestly don't see these scenarios happening unless the traveler is dubious in the first place. If you've got nothing to hide, you've got nothing to fear. Simple.

It is the Nigerian way of doing business on all levels.

In my organization, this quote is part of our oath. "I will not use my grade or position to attain profit, pleasure or personal safety".

manny4life:
Minor correction... The Tea Party members are angry even his fellow Republicans have disassociated themselves from him. Yes he's blunt about the truth (which is good) but his delivery is evil. America's policies are tiled towards the capitalist scale than it is on socialism, and before you call Obamacare which represents a minority % of healthcare coverage, let's not forget other capitalist policies that plunged America in the hellhole it was in before.

The tea party may have disassociated themselves from him, but he is still the leading republican candidate. I just finished watching a campaign he did today. The basket ball auditorium was packed full. People are listening to him.

LI:
Ignoramus

M.oron, you can do better. Lol. . .

Addicted2Women:
Do you think we Americans will vote for him ??
Do you think Americans are insane to vote for a lunatic ??
And you also think if he wins, i will be deported ??

You can't deport the 2 million illegal Mexicans who lives in the USA.
There is what we call democracy in american.
You have to do everything accordingly.
The united Nations don't even have the rights and power to deport anyone without a court process.

Continue displaying your ignorance.

I know for a fact the OP's story is false but as for Americans voting for him, bros, anything can happen. A lot of people are angry with the social policies in America. People are restricted in the way they express themselves and they love the way Trump holds nothing back. But, i hope he doesn't become president because America will be in serious trouble.

vicstar:
what a nasty fellow , to me america is overrated, I love my country. I can only go on visiting or holidays...but to go hustle God4bid , anything am looking for there, is here in nigeria so wtf?? So tell dat bumps or trumps to shove it up his asss

Suffer no good. It clouds the senses.

onoja12:
People always ask me, who do you want to win the elections, I always tell them Donald trump, they ask why and I laugh.

well simple Donald is a messiah, even he himself doesn't know it but when he is done with America all those Africans that thief our money and send there family there would run back either empty handed or with our money. all those people the government sent on scholarship there and refuse to return back to help build Africa, would return by force, all those tech guys and brilliant people that have been potched would be back soon.in all Africa is about to develop at an even faster rate.
so my fellow black people go out and support Donald for President please vote for him

Why am i not surprised?

KashyBaby:
That's y he will never gonna win...America can't survive without petrol..

And what does that mean?

modath:
Have you ever been in a secondary inspection situation & seen LIVE EVENTS or you are just arguing for the sheer hell of punching holes in the post

The only thing the OP didn't elaborate on is that, none of this is the norm @ the main border point , it is when people are sent for further questions & answers that story dey enter.. Those CBP people can be funny especially the immigrants & 1st gen offsprings of immigrants...

No, i've never been in a secondary inspection situation because i ain't s.tupid. You are given ample information from the consulate before you travel. I honestly don't see these scenarios happening unless the traveler is dubious in the first place. If you've got nothing to hide, you've got nothing to fear. Simple.

Keneking:
Amazing leader...

We support you...carry and go...no shaking!

Bro's, he's just doing his job.

otiigba1:
could you please elaborate? i didn't quite comprehend your point

2. Unless i'm mistaken you can't just buy a one way ticket.

3. If i have a credit card, how are they going to know how much i have on it.

4. There is a weight limit on luggage even before you leave your home country.

5. The traveler is just st.upid. The world has gone digital. It is not even an issue.

6. That point is also s.tupid. It has nothing to do with anything.

7. Doesn't make any sense.

8. Doesn't make any sense.

9. Doesn't make any sense.

10. Doesn't make any sense.

ronald4lif:
All true. Worse if you're going to Australia. Aussie immigration officials are the most strict in the world, they could deny you entry for sneezing too hard lol. Even Australians are denied entry into their country without cogent reasons. Crazy country.

At least ninety five percent of what the OP laid out is wrong.

soloheater:
If this is flawless then i'm dead

Don't be surprised. I've stopped being shocked when it comes to Nigerian's a long time ago.

masterplan303:
nice one op.

Lol.....All the points are rubbish. Unless you hid in a suitcase up to the point of entry, you would not even encounter any of these issues because you won't even have a visa in the first place. The guy is just typing rubbish and you are swallowing it.

babyfaceafrica:
there is nothing fair about war...winner takes it all!!!!

Still, you haven't mentioned how many wars the Nigerian army has fought?

dammytosh:
So some one can pick an innocent picture and put a caption on it and it hit front page?

The irony is that girls who give their boyfriend tfare after visiting them are also talking about how pathetic this girl is.

Haven't you heard? Everything on the internet is true. You've go to respect the way people use social media.

babyfaceafrica:
its the NA ....they have never lost a war!!!!

And how many wars have they fought? Please don't mention biafra. That was never a fair fight.

babyfaceafrica:
NA should do the needful......but rubber bullets please!!!

Lol.. . Do you think they know what that means? The best non lethal weapon they know about will probably be a catapult.

You all have just made Tonye even more popular and relevant. Kudos.

Nicepoker:
who is stopping u from falling bck to cocoa.

Good question. He even made it sound like cocoa was the only cash crop Nigeria exported. It was cocoa, groundnut, oil palm and rubber to name a few. The way some people think can be frightening.

Today must be a slow news day.

sonofananimal:
but you can easily flirt and control a chick to ya house via whatapp and any other social platform but can't propose to ya love one ABI

don't be a die hard black man dude! writing it is just another form of confident than not even saying a world and let it soak you up!

it is just how and the way you write it only MATTER!

this is not a big deal! as far you buy and sell through social network and you can do almost anything via social platform, then why not proposing to ya love of your life?

What do you mean by "die hard black man?" Trust me when i tell you that the African mentality is completely alien to me. Where have all the real men gone to? Where is the Romance? I can flirt around and joke about it on social media with a babe if i was single, but actually popping the question is a different thing entirely. Not everything should be done on SM. This was how a father was trying to give corrective training to his child through social media and worse is he posted the who episode on it too.
