Nollywood actor Alesh Sanni has warned Nigerians not to depend on agencies for getting visas.

He pointed out the dangers and the chance of losing money.

Sanni emphasized the need to use real documents and to steer clear of high travel costs.

He mentioned that agents can’t promise a visa will be issued since it relies on the embassy’s decision.

Sanni advised Nigerians to be smart and careful when looking to travel abroad.

He pointed out the serious impact of spending a lot of money and using life savings only to get a visa denial.

Sanni mentioned that due to the tough economic situation in the country, embassies are becoming stricter with visa approvals. This makes it important to be careful and not get caught in scams.

He wrote: “Guys, pls, I won’t say this again, walai. Don’t use all your life savings for the agency to try a visa for you. Pls, stop this. Just try it with a good document, and don’t use millions for travel. Chai, this isn’t guarantee. Where do you wanna start from when you spent 20m to japa and got denied? Like how? Pls be wise. No be agent go give you visa o. Pls be wise, don’t be foolish.

“They won’t listen. Economy is bad to embassies aren’t giving visas anyhow. You people should not be foolish, them go just scam you”.
