    JUST IN: Saudi Embassy Reacts to Visa Cancellation, Deportation of Nigerians from Jeddah

    The Saudi Arabia Embassy in Nigeria has said that Nigerians whom their visa were cancelled and subsequently deported from Jeddah didn’t fulfill the entry requirements into the Kingdom.

    In a press statement made available to newsmen in Abuja,  the  Press Attache to the Saudi embassy in Nigeria, Mohammed Al-Sahabi, noted that, the pilgrims during application have provided false information to obtain a category of visa that is not perculiar to them.

    “The Royal Embassy of Saudi Arabia in Abuja would like to make a clarification about the media reports and Social Media releases concerning the deportation of Nigerian citizens at the point of entry into the Kingdom.

    “The passengers whom were denied entry, and subsequently deported to their initial destinations, didn’t fulfill the entry conditions and requirements in accordance with the applicable rules and regulations of the Kingdom, as they submitted incorrect information to obtain a category of visa that doesn’t apply to them, which was discovered upon their arrival.

    “The Royal Embassy would like to stress the importance of following the procedures and laws enacted by the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia for all visitors. Furthermore, all passengers should review all the documents to determine their conformity with the conditions prior departing from their countries to the Kingdom.

    ” This procedure was not limited to Nigerian citizens only, but rather to citizens of other countries.” Al-Sahabi added.
