The harassment has taken a xenophobic dimension, Just 2 days ago a Nigerian with Valid passport and entry Visa to Kenya was stopped by plain clothes policemen, when they requested for his passport, he promptly presented it to them. The passport was immediately seized and he was asked to to leave Kenya, as Nigerians only come to Kenya to take their woman, he resisted and insisted that he committed no offense, he was immediately attacked and beaten to a pulp and he was bleeding profusely.
3 days ago, 27 Nigerians were refused entry without Valid reasons yet we have a protocol of giving Visa's on entry by both countries Embassy officials who visited the Nigerians in jails broke down in
tears when the found out that they were not only innocent but that they were tortured and brutalized .
The Nigerian community has also met with leading politicians in Kenya who insist that our Ambassador has not only failed to do his Job, and that if we remain silent about this harassment that it will only get worse.
This case is only one of the many cases that is going on in Kenya.
We as an organization cannot afford to publish this letter on the pages of the Newspapers in Nigeria, but we are appealing and counting on your good graces to help us make our plight known.

Linda, kindly read thru the story and make amend, too many typos which is not good for your blog.
Thank me later ;)
Linda I couldn't read this comfortably. Even if it was a letter written by the association, a little proof-reading wouldn't have hurt.
sad news ..most african countries dont like Nigerians..just like Benin too ..the police and citizens will do anything to get money and brutalize a Nigerian ..i lived there for 4years ..same in Togo too ..Nigerian Govt dont protect her citizens ..sad shii
some times i get to wonder what Nigerians are doing in Kenya a nation dat is not as rich as Lagos state and port Harcourt put together a nation dat the population of three states in Nigeria put together far out numbers kenyan total population. its a pity if only our government can fix this nation then we will restrict people from coming to Nigeria just like the southern Africans beside Kenyan men are lousy in bed
Oh wow.... this is bad...really bad :-(
Now seriously,wth ar niagerians doin in kenya?gt ur butts down here!
Miss yuucee
It's truly pity. If things were so comfortable with these ones, what would they have been doing in Kenya. Our leaders, please let's make this country a better place to avoid or minimize these embarrassing situations where fellow African countries would be treating Nigerians like outcasts.
Seriously kenya? So what's happening there if I may ask. Mtcheeeeeeew.
Wetin dey happen for naija wr dey no fit stay. *bbm tongue* come bk to ur country
Abeg o,of all places to descriminate and intimidate,is it now kenya?LMAo,what re the nigerians self doing there?y re they now hiding the ugly set of women in kenya!mtcheew
See common Kenya dey worry 9ja people too. Awwwww notin Nigerians no go suffer. Where is Kenya sef? No be dat bush where Animals dey live? Smmmmmmh
Common kenya can disgrace nigerian too,I don't blame them I only blame nigeria political leader for not managing the resources well
This is incredible! Ordinary Kenya...so they have joined forces in the persecution of Nigerians. Well, I don't blame them. They know we don't have government that is responsible. They know that our country is completely in a state of disarray. They know that the Nigerian embassy in their country doesn't even care a hoot about the people they ought to represent and protect. They know that the Nigerian ambassador doesn't even know the location of the Nigerian house in their country (as he flies from one country to the other squandering and stashing away his loot ) not to talk of knowing the number of Nigerians living in Kenya. They know that in other countries Nigerian citizens are treated like slaves and yet nothing happens. They know that there are so many Nigerian citizens in prison across the whole world for crimes they never committed and our government did nothing and will not do anything . They know that our leaders hate us and don't even have respect or care about us. They know we have charlatans as leaders in fact the list is endless....so what do you expect?!
It isn't like Kenya is all that compared to Nigeria but for our government apathy towards her people.
Sad tale!
Is Kenya your fatherland, come back home and let's repair our own country.
Kenya kwa?!
What r nigerian even doing it kenya?come back to ur country simple.
Kenya Kwa, na wa ooo. 9ja don hear am
Why is anyone going to Kenya anyway? I will rather stay in Naija and work harder.
Even Kenya has joined. Soon it will be Cotonou in Benin Republic!
Ordinary Kenya!
That dry,broke and empty country also have the guts to treat nigerian bad,i don't blame them,its those pple dat carried their legs there!
I rather stay in my village than to go live in some African countries.
God punish Nigerian govt....imagine Kenyan off all countries Nigerians are begging to stay......the Kenyans in Dallas dear not talk where Nigerians are cuz they all black ass and we be dere master......all dere good for is f*** and fufu and uhgali........

Hmm interesting, wetin person no go see! Soon it will be Ghana. Well, they look after their citizens better. When Libya kicked-off didn't they hire planes and pick up their nationals? Meanwhile Nigerians are still in Benghazi and Tripoli being treated like dogs.
Oya now swagger your way home instead of complaining....Mshew
Lmfao...u'r funny in an unfortunate manner. Lol
See the Arik Air issue as Linda's photo of the day and see someone's comment:
What a shame.
Whoever said Nigeria was among world emerging economies needs to have a re-think.
An emerging economy with no railway transport system?in 2013?
The airports are as scary as the drath trap roads;such a Shame.
Naija Shine ya eye!
Nigeria do not have ambassadors ,they get there and all they do is flight for political favours in the country instead of protecting the interest of Nigerians there,kuwait is worse,and many other places,in our own country we are even regarded as second class citizens,a Nigerian man would prefer to employ a foreigner than his fellow Nigerian,and when we go there we are treated like animals. *Sad*
U busy abusing a country n its citizens as if it will change a thing.call it all names u want it doesn't change the fact that some 'Nigerians' have led to defaming a nation.deal with the real problems.
Wetin carry nigerians go kenya of all places,dis one na search for greener pasture?.abeg make una come home
Last time I checked Nigeria is still big enough for all of us. Please come back home.
Can't believe this...Kenya? Naija dey fall my hands o. Wetin dey that poverty striken country na. What a shame.
Kenya self na country,nigerians should atleast respect dem self n go to normal countries if 9ja no favour dem.dats studid country,Abeg make ona come back home
You are a bastard
Why are they not telling the truth 75% of Nigerians in Kenya are fraudsters and drug pushers that is the main reason for the harassment they use Kenyan ladies as mules just the other day well known druglord Anthony Chinedu was deported back to Naija please stop telling lies you all know that other than students at USIU and other universities and the church people the rest of you in the country are drug pushersand even pay protection money to the local police Linda please get both sides of the story before publishing wrong information. The Nigerian community in Kenya needs to get rid of the rot within itself first otherwise the harassment will just continue
Awww, kenya? i† was when i went ther i knw Nigeria I̶̲̥̅̊s̶̲̥̅̊ far better dan dat dirty country.......plz U̶̲̥̅̊ all shuld zoom hme wit immediate effect.
The only tin alive and kicking in keyan is HIV then why go there?
Must they stay in another man's country?if they harrass them over there,you should come back home
Even Kenya follow? What are Nigerians doing there? Kenyans should be the ones struggling to come to Nigeria, not the other way round. What better life could be in Kenya I wonder. I've never ever thought or wished to go to that country.

Who is this Man with no name? This petition is largely from supporters of Anthony Chinedu, the shady "businessman" (allegedly drug lord) who was deported from Kenya. You can see him in this video inviting Kenya TV to his in Lagos showing his swimming pool, his rides and talking rubbish......
The last time I checked, lagos and Rivers monthly revenues and allocations from federal purse can feed all of kenya. The problem is management. Naija leaders, GOD PUNISH UNA FINISH.
They should come home, hiya Kenya kwa, that God forsaken country. 9ja we should value our home n stop waka waka
hmmmm,wetin dey kenya sef.9ja we don suffer oooo bcos of d useless leaders dat we have.Evry country no want see nigerians wit eyes.Baba God save ur children ooooo*shake my lace wig nd walk away*
I know that if hell wasn't full of fire Nigerians would be there hustling/working/schooling..honestly, I don't blame them bcos our leaders have failed to develop our country. Shame on Nigerian politicians!
Shurrup u punk...pretty ma cute black ass
Sue Jordan, I like your post. Tell them that they are cherished most here than in Kenya.
Brethren, kindly find your way back to Nigeria. You can become all you want to be here. No place like home. Nigeria I love thee.
Dat ws hilarious PC!
Kenya of all Country, with their bony face, long tooth and dry body.
Hahahaha...their men are scared of loosing their women to Naija men. Naija men kwenu! A ram trying to challenge a cow,Kenyans make una dey well!
-Blunt Ibo boy-
Hahahaha...their men are scared of losing their women to Naija men. Naija men kwenu! A ram trying to challenge a cow,Kenyans make una dey well!

Abeg make una dem women for them ...haba. Naija better pass
Abeg make una dem women for them ...haba. Naija better pass
lol. at prince charming. anyways u really cant blame the nigerians in kenya. alot of them are there for valid reasons. some are transfered there by their organisations and all of that so.. u really cant bllame them. its funny how kenya thinks they can b doing boss doe. wha do they have in that their country
According to olakunle sonriyan, Nigeria is suffering from the "basket of rotten eggs" syndrome. Every country thinks we are too rotten to be associated with. Its no longer western countries, even our brothers think we are to rotten to live in their land. Seriously we have lost it and need a serious reorientation
Kenya has had a thorough beating on this one but at the end of the day, Linda needs to publish the truth and both sides of the story. if Kenya was what has been decribed here then why are Nijas desparate to be there. east or west home is best! Being s Kenyan we do nto want drug pushers on our streets, they can do that comfortably on the streets of Lagos! One big one has just been deported. No offence to naija because I love Nollywood but no amount of insults will change the country Kenya neither will it add more Ugali or fufu to Nigeria!
Even kenya, wey no get fine girls dey complain abt nigerians takin dere women.
Oga kool down!....nuffin dey kenya!........ma country pple come back! Wotz d need of jumping from fry pan to fire.......@least we 9jerianz still gat some flesh
Pple should pls stop dissing Kenya, when 1 or 2 or even 3 hate u, we can conclude that they re jealous of u but when anywhere u go, pple hate u then u should check urself.nigerians re not the only pple who go and live around the world.another problem nigerians have is stupid pride, look at pple here(nigerians) calling them "common", "ordinary". If they were ordinary then why re nigerians going to live there? With all the money u guys say NIGERIA has, yet they leave that so called "money" to go live in "poor Kenya" even though this doesn't justify anyone to maltreat nigerians but come to think of it,why wouldn't they? Nigerians don't love themselves so how do u want pple to love u, u sit down there and watch ur government robb u of ur future( education, justice ,security, basic amenties, etc) and they re now defiling ur daughters and u sit and watch and do nothing, yet u re calling kenya names.abeg make una park abeg.heaven only helps those who help themselves.
My continuation from 12:43am, my dear nigerians, u can't sit there everytime and say"may God help us, may God help us". Even the God u're talking about carried out a revolution, it was untill he started killing the1st sons of Egypt that pharoah let his pple go.u have to help urself for heaven to help u, if u're praying to pass an exam and u don't read what happens? 2mins u re in church casting and binding but u don't read what happens I ask again? If Nigerians re not ready to fight for their future they should SHUT Up and take any bullshit that comes their way, if they defile ur 13 year daughter, u thank God since what we re good at saying "may God help us" if they maltreat u in other countries pls don't forget to do thanksgiving cos in all situations u should give thanks. Don't forget to smile o cos u re known to suffer and smile.pls no one should diss kenya again, if u respect urself, u will be respected.
I SEE CALLING NAMES HERE, COMMON KENYA, EVEN KENYA..... REMEMBER THEIR ECONOMY IS BETTER THAN OURS AND THE CRIME RATE THERE IS LESS THAN OURS ,,,,,SO WHAT IS COMMON KENYA? IF OUR GOVT DID NOT DO SOMETHING TO MAKE THING BETTER IN NIGERIA ...TRUST ME WITH TIME EVEN NIGER WILL DEPORT US FROM THIER COUNTRY. FOOLISH GOVT
Your four fathers are crimminals Oloshi , at least it wasn't Nigerians that ate their ghanaian house mate in America it was Kenyans Eyin Oloshi . But yet they will be listening to our music watching our films . Jealousy dey worry una
I don't even know that Nigerians are leaving in Kenya, Please brothers and sisters come back home, Nigeria is 100% better than K-e-n-y-a. As for me I prefect to stay in the village than going to Kenya
imagine small kenya using us 2 drink garri like dis, nways its nigerians i blame we dey always find green pastures instd of growin the pasture in our land.. sigh! East Africans dnt like West Africans even from waatchin common BBA u ll know sef
Nigerians are tha most beautiful/handsome and rich,ok.Linda those demonstrating are the criminals/culprits involved in drugs,robbery.fake money wash wash,conning and the rest.The Nigerian Amb. Is quiet cos he knows they are not innocent.THEY MUST CHANGE OR LEAVE! Insulting Kenyans won't change a thing.
We have to fight for our right in this dirty country or else we cannot develop. Last time it was South Africa, now Kenya of all country. God help us wipe all these our dead leader whose interest is to embezzle our resources and leave our roads fucking bad and refuse to give us constant power supply.
Lolllzz
Lollzzz
Thunder fire u! Oloriburuku were
You are a worthless fool.
Ure father is the bastard. Useless country. U locusts go every where and destroy everything. Have shame and stay in ur country and fix it. Insult kenya all u want but ure the mumus forcing to go there. No one wants or needs nigerians in their countrys. Corrupt animals
Well after spending months in kenya i definitely saw that coming. And people please kenya is not a Godforsaken country, if they had much natural resources she would be better than Nigeria. I was a student there and the school are better than most Nigerian school and since the Nigerian government makes getting admisson to governmet schools difficult and the private school very expensive and day by day having less regards for Nigerian Private unversities many Nigerians have decided to school in Kenay which is way better than 80% of our schools. Also as we have Nigerians going all the way to China for business kenya is one destination where buiness is good. So people kenya is a good place and we Nigerians like to stay in nice places. And not all kenyas are tall skinny and dark, infact those that are are the minority tribe.
Equally, Mr ambassador(Nigerian) to kenya this issue is reason why you are there so do your job and dnt just sit on your fat ass.
No one is immune from discrimination as long as you find yourself in a foreign land. However, God forbid that either me or my generations will in any situation find ourselves visiting Kenya of all nations. My Nigerians brothers never seized to disgrace me. What on earth are they doing in Kenya? That shit place??? oh my word!!!
The time has come for us as a couuntry and people to ask ourselves some basic and simple questions like why do our able bodied men and women are running off to other country to earn a living, why do countries harrass us every time? The last time it was the South African killing Nigerians. Now itz the Kenyans and maybe very soon it will be Ghana's or Togo's turn to harrass and embarass Nigerians living in their countries. How long can we continue to take these from other countries? The time has come for us to hold our political leaders accountable starting from the counsellors, local govt chairmen e.t.c. May God help us.
@chris, keep shut. What is God forbidding? Talk abt ur self not ur generation.. Ur generation can find der selves in a country that is not up to kenya. Watch ur speech.
All those saying "even Kenya" have never been to Kenya...Have probably never even been to Abuja. Have never even been to Lekki, past Phase 1. So be quiet. Kenya is MUCH BETTER THAN NIGERIA TO LIVE IN. THE INFRASTRUCTURE IS BETTER, THE WEATHER IS BETTER...NEED I SAY MORE? THERES ELECTRICITY 24/7!!!
EVEN GHANA IS BETTER THAN NIGERIA!!!! SO THAT IS THE REASON WHY NIGERIANS ARE IN KENYA, NOT SWELTERING IN THE HOT, OPPRESSIVE SUN OF LAG.
But these people must be losers if they cant afford to just publish an editorial (I think its free homies)....
MAMA IFU
This is what bad government leads to. Kenya of all places where hunger is the order of the day. Sometimes i feel like we (Nigeria) should colonize these countries, nothing will happen. We will speak the grammar in international politics. But this can only happen if we can manage ourselves.!!!
i dnt judge on one sided story. Let us hear from the kenyan before makin conclusions. Naigerians sef get one kind irritatin habbit. Linda hoard it as usual
and the kenyan criminal in an office i know is is stealing them stupid here in Nigeria, bribing the Maroko police division and getting away with it. Low self esteem is killing Nigeria as a country and we are doing nothing about it. it is annoying.
Nigeria don suffer....
Lmao,nigerians mouth sha
@ this foolish anon.... den what are u doing on a nigerian blog.... u r a worthless wanna be... jealousy go kill u.
you people can bad mouth kenya from here to mexico but the fact remains...THERE IS SOMETIN IN KENYA. and thats why nigerians are there! if kenya is common/ordinary/dirty etc then who in their right mind would go there? unless of course nigerians are stupid? 0_o
signed, non kenyan....non nigerian!
Journalism is not what it used to be anymore, I expected a well detailed news ( reliable source + verified information). Most Nigerians in diaspora are usually involved in 419 Scams, Pimps, Drugs , etc. ( Obviously, not all Nigerians ). This is the same all over the place, Malaysia, South Africa, Italy, etc.
What do you expect from the government of Kenya? Fold their hands?
Loooooooolllllzzzz...criously u nailed dem! @PC
the nigerian government have not protected their citizens residing in nigeria you expect them to protect you in another man's country.....
stop insulting kenyan jare....they are trying to protect their country which should protect ours too.
You insult Kenya and kenya has the most beautiful weather. No air conditoning needed. Kenya has electricity 24 hours seven days a week. Kenya has proper residential areas with clean water and security all over the city. What you see in the news about kenya is the same way kenyans think lagos is the ilaje people the water people. The international media shows lagos as ilaje pple not civic centre or vgc. Lagos even if you are living in lekki. You will still buy petrol in jerricans. The generator noise could drive you to kenya for the quiet. The heat could also drice nigerians to kenya. The flooding in victoria island. The wayu games. You will def be at peace in kenya. I prefer to live where there is light and clean water. Kenya is beautiful.
Mark you they are complaining about the police...not their Kenyan neighbors, friends, colleagues, business partners, spouses etc. So...generally the problem is not between Kenyans and Nigerians.
There are many students, professionals & traders just doing their thing...so no problem here.
But then, there is a large number of mostly young Nigerian men. They just hang about, do not work. do not go to school. They just party hard...tend to drive big cars, are very loud and liquid... well nothing wrong with this. They can also be a social menace, in the estate. They (used to be) untouchables...so no social complaint against them would go very far...but then, now there is a new sheriff in town, and these hitherto untouchables, who had bought political freedom with the previous sheriff are being packed by the droves and repatriated back to Naija...at least they are not being taken to court and then prison.
Now the Kenya police is of the standard of any African police force, and their operations are not totally up to scratch, and hence some innocent Nigerians are getting caught in the middle...that is unfortunate and should be sorted out.
Kenya is increasingly becoming a drugs conduit country...Heroin from Asia & Cocaine from South America...on their way to Europe....and I need not tell you, out of every 10 arrested on trafficking, 8 are typically Nigerians...and that is a fact.
What are they doing there? they should leave if they are not welcome. I don't blame Kenyans for this,I study here is Europe,I am so not proud being a Nigerian why is this? our attitudes are terrible,you discover all sort of bizarre,terrible,irritating and horrific behavior associated with Nigerians here. These ranges from 419,shop lifting,fighting in dorms,drugs,just mention any thing horrific mention Nigerians.They lack the ability to behave them selves,they act like they are animals,and they are treated as such.I am a Nigerian, but I am so so ashamed of being one,when I see the manner they conduct them selves here and things they are into,the way they are treated,I can't help but weep some times,they deserve what ever treatment Kenyans are dishing out to them.I only feel pity for the few good and decent ones.If next life actually does exist,I would never return as a Nigerian never,I would like to return as a black still but never ever a Nigerian,and whats more,here Nigerians detest them selves a lot.
All this kenyans fooling themselves see 52 African countries are still under development including Nigeria and south Africa Kenyans are just wicked thats all in Nigeria we ve alot of Niger republic people,malians,ghanaians,sierra leone and benin republic people over here aloooot of them most especially Niger republic people but we dnt harrase or do dem anyhw dey live peacefully in Nigeria..Kenyans are jst wicked thats all
Awesome!
Hello Nigerians. Most people commenting -ve about Kenya here have never been outside Nigeria. I'd like to burst your bubble Nigerians. Your country is not as great as you wat to think it is. Just count the number of Kenyans in Nigeria,then I will tell you the number of Nigerians in Kenya. That way, we will know which of the two countries is better. No one leaves a great country for a worse country.
