We were on the plane from Nigeria with over 30 young girls who were travelling. It was a group of young girls between 18 to 25 years led by a woman in her 40’s, who hid her face behind a big glass and and a scarf.

They spoke in Yoruba and from their composure, they were travelling for the first time.

From their dressing, interaction, composure and final destination… I knew what was happening.

I whispered to my travel buddies Grace and Eddie.

Calm down, 😁 I’m a frequent traveller… you do not have to say anything at the airport for people who travels much to know certain things.

These young girls were being shipped to Egypt as domestic helps.

They were noisy, naive and disorganized. They were easily noticed on the plane.

One of them sat on someone’s seat, by the wimdow and when the original seat owner came she said she was the first to sit there that she won’t stand up🤣🤣🤣

Even when they were telling her to bring her ticket let them show her her seat, she was doing gra gra until a flight attendant came…

As soon as the flight tire hit the ground, they stood up fast and started hurrying to carry their bags meanwhile the flight was still taxying on the runway and the seat belt sign was still on… the air hostess had to shout at them… like shout “sit down!!”

We got to the airport and one was taking photos at the airport…

I own a travel group and we travel regularly, I usually warn and educate everyone on my group trip… it is not every airport or place you take photos, that someone is doing it does not mean you should… that person may not have been seen by the authorities but you that felt, “I saw someone doing it” might be caught.

Go to YouTube and watch people share their experiences, until something happens to you, you will think it is a made up story.

We were already being held and waiting for our passports when she was busy making photo… she doesn’t know where she is and definitely has not heard about Egyptian immigration that is known to turn back passengers.

Go to YouTube and watch people’s experiences in Egypt… they will ask you to “Go back to your country” from the point of entry.

An immigration officer saw her and told her to give him her phone, she did and he couldn’t find the photos… still he wasn’t satisfied that the girl wasn’t taking photo…

The fact that she held up her phone was already infuriating him… so he asked her to “go back home”.

This girl fell on her knees crying and opening her hands to gesture pleading… nobody assisted her in begging.

At the point of entry, every man to himself.

One of them whispered to another one “na so you want take do with your madam?”

So I was right… it’s a maid job they were being recruited for.😁

Another officer came, this one looks older, and the first one spoke Arabic to her and the older officer asked her why she was taking photos… she said she wasn’t taking photos of the immigration officers or the counter that they should look at her phone… he told her to “Go Back home”

It was another guy from an Arab country that intervened.

I am sharing this to educate some people…
It is not every country to take photos at their airports,
It’s not every country you take photos at their train station.
You don’t take photos at the point of enter or border of any country… you would be taken to a guard room, and tor. tvred to confess if you’re a terrorist that was sent to spy their military strength at their point of entry.

I am not telling you what I read,
I am posting experiences other people shared with me in person and what I have experienced.

Don’t say you haven’t read this before so you didn’t know.

Now that you know,

May content creation not be the end of us…

Amen.
