In a video by @kemisolami02 on TikTok, the lady shared how her ban was related to a bank issue that arose during her proof of funds.
Speaking of her friend, she said:
"She applied for her visa the way anybody would apply for visa. After two weeks, we were expecting response from them and they didn’t get back to us.
"After a month, they texted her from the embassy that they have been trying to verify her account but her bank was not responding. They told her to go to the bank and sort things out with them.
"She went to the bank and met with the manager. The manager told her that it was true and their international network is not working. So all the messages that they’ve been sending from the embassy, they had not received anything."
She mentioned how her friend’s bank was later labelled as fraud, making her visa denied with a 10-year ban.

You shielded the bank by refusing to mention their name so that another person can fall in the same pit. No good emough please

I think she made a mistake. when the bank gave her that explanation, she should have withdrawn her money to another bank and write to embassy to explain then send the verifiable link

What’s the essence of this story if you can’t give people a hint of the bank.??? So after all this video, other people would still fall victim whereas you could have prevented it from happening. Smh

As long as it’s a reputable commercial bank in Nigeria, she can contest the ban in court. Although I don’t think this will hold if it’s a micro finance bank she used or something else. It’s public information, there are certain banks you can use for visa applications and the ones you can’t.
