Beware! Nigerian travellers to USA

A disturbed Nigerian shared this:
His friend who is an attorney in New York and a RCCG Pastor sent this to him early this morning.
This happened to his niece.
My friends niece arrived yesterday at JFK airport. She is a Nigerian with a valid 2 year visa. She was held by US Immigration for over 12 hours and then deported with a 5 year ban.
Her crime was that she flew Qatar airline. That was the red flag!
The ignorant immigration officials wanted to know why she would fly from Nigeria to Qatar instead of through Europe. They wanted to know her contacts Qatar.
She said it was due to cheap ticket price. They searched her phones , looked at all her contacts and even called her job in Nigeria. After all the humiliation they said she had two choices , she could either go back to Nigeria or be put in detention in the US while they continue with extreme vetting.
This all happened yesterday in our New United States. Please when traveling check your phones, your messages, your internet. Don’t take unknown packages or letters for people and if you can avoid certain airlines please.
I am not trying to alarm you JFK is now like a war zone with lawyers and protesters on standby.
Yes Pastor, I spent the whole of yesterday on this matter. At least 10 Nigerians were sent back for spurious reasons. The immigration officials have become so arrogant and they feel empowered. They won’t even let you speak to your client in peace. It is chaotic.
More……..
If you have a green card , you better apply for citizenship as the green card is almost worthless .
If you have a child who is under 21 and who is in the US for school with a student visa or visitors visa, You can have a US citizen file for legal guardianship for the under 21 individual.
This is easier than adoption and is pretty straight forward. Once the legal guardianship is granted by the courts. The guardian can file for a green card for the person. Most people don’t know this but we have been able to use this obscure rule to obtain green cards for many in our church. The child must be under 21.
