Bollinger:


Are you really? I doubt it. If you were wise you have realized by now that the problem is not Buhari nor Jonathan. The problem is you and every single Nigerian in Nigeria.

THIS IS WHAT EVERY NIGERIAN YOUTH NEVER UNDERSTAND!!!!

THANKS FOR YOUR BRILLIANT COMMENT

10. Right to freedom from discrimination - section 42 (1999 constitution) No nigerian shall be discriminated upon on the basis of his community, ethnic group,sex,place of origin and politican opinion

adebopo:
people should understand that travelling to other country doesn't mean ure going there to look for money. there are other thousands of reason.
and for the fact that a country is poorer doesn't mean they have nothing better to offer.
for your information Philippines as a country is poorer than Nigeria but things are far much more well organized than in Nigeria here including their education system. infact people from western countries including so call US come there to school, especially their medical which is fashion just like american medical system.
back to the issue on ground, as per the security head in the embassy known as kayode he his not a sincere and straight forward person, then for the other lady I reserve my comment.
cheers

True fact

ojoisimi:
bribery goes on in most of the embassies in Nigeria and not just Philippine's. are those demanding for bribe at the embassy not Nigerians? the same thing also do happen at the airport. so, Philippine or no philippine, Nigerians are Nigerians worst enemies

Its sad really

BioGreen:
I can perfectly relate to what you are saying; i'm really surprise that lady is still at that embassy.

I then wanted to write a petition to the Philippine consular officer on that lady and copy appropriate gov't authority; more sad is that she's a Nigerian (Akwa-ibom/Calaber).

She literally insults everyone, students and their guardians inclusive

Wow thanks for sharing

Everyone who has experienced any sort of abuse should report immediately so that it will be exposed. She is there because most people do not know their right. She has no right to insult anyone!

1freshdude:
Get involved when you see a fellow Nigerian been maltreated, whether by the police, government officials, foreigners or a bigman. Thats the only to restore respect for Nigerians.

thanks alot for this message it is very important. We should all care. Wether we are affected or not.

eleojo23:
Are those gatemen Nigerians?

The gate men are Nigerians

kayLion:
Indian embassy in Lagos is also as bad as you described

Thats interesting

Livefreeordieha:
i admire everything u said...But bro if u say u have travelled the globe and been to places and the Philippino treatment shocks then i will have to question your claims...


An average African faces this everyday worse if you are a Nigerian we trend cutting across all sorts of vices globally and we still have to deal with the racial profiling which ofcourse we resort to leaving so many other factors..

You might probably own a dual citizenship and maybe has got some society profile that awards u the extra leverage but yet your skin color will always be a problem regardless..

I was once told about 10yrs ago something by consular after rejecting my visa application and granting other Africans that we applied as a group for a science excursion in Czech Republic...She told me and i quote for a nigerian passport holder you will need more time than you have sir..Now i was furious but then I'm Nigerian.

Our embassies are the worst in the world...Even the ambassadorial appointment will tell you that...We have only ancestral candidates as ambassadors with no interest in selfless service to humanity..

I know all this things u outlined but my question is...What do u plan to do? Certainly not through here the decay u wailing about is an endemic problem treated like an organised crime...


The best u can get is a committee set up and ofcourse they might thank u in their minds as it will afford them the chance to appoint cronies and loot you further..

Thank you for your contributions

I agree with you... we are only looking for a solution. Some of the people who go through all this are not the politicians who are untouchable...they are the average citizens. I know Nigeria is terribly currupt!!! Which is sad...but we can start from somewhere...
The people who suffer are not the thieves who have stolen from every citizen in the name of politics and made the youths suffer.

And really no embassy in Nigeria should maltreat Nigerians.

Lipscomb:
Philippine I swear Lome is better than Philippine

Most people are usually not aware about various countries, Thats why they fall prey. I think its just to study Nigerians go there for.

Its a serious matter

usba:
There is need to go under cover to get concrete evidence that is video evidence which will form the basis of reporting them to the Ministry of Foreign affairs. Please ignore the rants of small minds who are only filled with hate.

Very true... video evidence will be really appreciated. Hopefully Nairaland will expose the truth.

kelvinUchiha:
Only when Africans emancipate themselves from mental slavery can they truly be free. Look at ordinary Philippines of yesterday naa. Anyways our leaders are making matters worse.

You are right. I had to go myself to see after the complain and it was disgusting. The treatment at the was the worst i have ever seen. I never saw something like that in all the countries i visited. The gate men were literally asking for bribe together with a lady who the embassy kept to check the documents. She was insulting the nigerian kids looking for visa. This kids were scared of her.
They did notting to get that treatment...they were only going to Philippinesto study!!!

EternalTruths:
Is Nigeria a country.?

I understand what you are getting at if u are Nigerian . The curruption in Nigeria has eaten to the roots!!!
but any change has to start from any where. The truth of the matter is that APC or PDP( all greedy old people that care about only their pockets and immediate families) will not save the state of Nigeria but as individuals we can only try!!!!

I saw a situation in which the normal citizens are being abused... wether I agree with Nigerian politics or not... I care for the citizens and what I can do is try bring to Awareness!!!

Due to various reason with the Higher education in Nigeria
Nigerian student have been trooping into the Philippines for their university studies in thousands!!!!
1. Nigerians are required to apply for visas and as of today pay an application fee of 15000naira which goes into the Philippines account.

2. They have to authenticate their documents at the foreign affairs in Manila, Philippines WHICH COST alot of money and in turn helps the Philippines economy

3. Various other things they have to pay for when they arrive , to study in the Philippines which means the Philippines is also benefiting from the Nigerians.

The Nigerians are treated like Animals at the Philippines embassy in Gwarimpa Abuja, Nigeria
The gate men at the Philippines embassy Abuja Nigeria have the audacity to ask for bribes from citizens that obviously do not know their right. A gate man has no right to even look at your documents!

There is a lady also who is supposed to check for documents but instead abuse the Nigerians who go to the embassy. she calls them all sorts of names.
Her job is just to check the documents!!!!!

please I'M not here to questions about why Nigerians go to study in the Philippines but to be in the shoes of the Nigerian who are treated badly at the embassy

I went there myself just to understand the complains I have received. i personally do not need a visa to go to the Philippines but my attention was called on this, and i would like to get people to share their experience to please drop a message here so that people can be aware in Nigeria about what Nigerians are experiencing at the Philippines embassy Abuja Nigeria!!!.

it is the right of every human being to be treated well and respected and this case should be treated seriously
