Some Nigerians who traveled to Dubai have been detained at the airport and their passports seized, according to reports.

This was disclosed by a Twitter user, @dunchichi who raised the alarm on the platform.

According to @dunchichi, she and the rest travelers were victims for no just reason but was luckily picked up by her sister from an immigration office after a “tedious process.”

Also, in a video she shared online, many Nigerians were seen demanding answers as to why their passports were seized.

One of those detained was heard telling an Arab man to give back her passport so she could return to Nigeria as she no longer wanted to stay in the Arab country. Others sat in empty areas as they awaited their fate.

She wrote, “I’m at Dubai international airport and myself and some tiger Nigerians with valid Visas are being held in a room hours after arriving with no explain and no information on what we can do. Please help me. There’s more than 20 of us.

“This is the situation happening with Nigerians arriving Dubai today 31st August 2022. Detained and our passports siezed. Help!

“If they are sending us back. Then they should send us back instead of holding us here without reason after long flights from different destinations.

“Is it a crime to be Nigerian? How can a visa be issued to you and then you get held at the airport without information. My sister that came to see how she can help is not being given any information either and I have not been able to see her.

“Nigerians should stop visiting Dubai. Cos we cannot be humiliated this way by the same people that issued us visas. Use your money to come and get humiliated. Nah.

“My sister had to go through immigration to get me released. It was a tedious process. Others are still there and I don’t know their status. What happens if you have no family here? Nobody knows what is going on.”
