Lady stranded in Qatar amid war with Iran
Identified as @Onyeka on X, the lady expressed her desperation and helplessness in a heartbreaking tweet, as she the spoke about the challenges faced by Nigerians stranded in Qatar amid the tensions between Iran and Israel.
According to her, countries have evacuated their citizens, but Nigerians are allegedly being left behind, with many feeling abandoned and neglected.
The lady stated that despite reaching out to the Embassy and Consulate, they received no positive response, and they were all helpless at the moment.
She lamented that Nigerian passports were being rejected, even for transit visas, making it difficult for them to leave Qatar.
In her words:
"Never been this helpless before in my life. 9 days stuck in Qatar with my family and other Nigerians who were on transit, countries have picked up their citizens from here it’s mostly Nigerians that are left! We have called Embassy and Consulate yet no postive response. Every Nigerian here just feels helpless, the passport can’t even get us a Saudi visa! to atleast leave from here,once you click Nigerian it stops even with a Uk visa. This situation is a highly Diplomatic situation but we seem to not have a strong diplomatic relations. For the repatriation flight, for how long are we going to have to wait for? We need help here, there are really old people here with us and children."
