Why Nigerians Are Denied Entry into Dubai – Dabiri-Erewa

The Chairperson of Nigerians in Diaspora Commission, NIDCOM, Abike Dabiri-Erewa, has revealed why Nigerian travellers to Dubai are being turned back home despite having valid visas.

Recall that some Nigerians who travelled recently to Dubai were detained at the airport and their passports seized. Few were seen demanding answers after their passports were seized without explanation.

‘‘What the Dubai authorities have done is this, they have made the visa processes more stringent. If you are below 30, there is no visa for you; it is so difficult. They make it so stringent that you won’t be able to fulfil it; it does not matter who you are.

‘‘Secondly, if you are going to Dubai now, you have to provide a six-month bank statement, you have your ticket, and you must show proof of accommodation where you are going to stay. If you lie about where you are going to stay, they are going to know, so they are going to turn you back,” Dabiri-Erewa stated while featuring on a programme on Arise Tv.

She advised Nigerians to stop giving the country a bad name.
