Some Nigerians who travelled to Dubai, United Arab Emirate, were detained at the airport and their passports seized.

Few others were seen demanding answers from the immigration officers after their passports were seized without explanation.

Others are seen sitting in an empty area as they waited to know their fate.

The lady who shared the video revealed that her sister later picked her up from immigration after a “tedious process” but other Nigerians who didn’t have anyone in the country were not released.

One of those detained is heard telling an Arab man to give back her passport so she can return to Nigeria as she no longer wants to stay in the Arab country.
