A Nigerian medical doctor has been denied an Australian visa because of a social media post she made some years back.
According to Twitter user @drpenking, the lady’s post was deemed ‘homophobic’ and as such, was enough to deny her the visa/scholarship she’s wanted for over three years.
The twitter user wrote ;
If you have Japa plans be mindful of what you tweet o. Today, they denied my Doctor friend VISA to Australia for a scholarship she won for Masters in Public Health because of a thread she made about Homsexuality 3 years ago (August 23, 2017).They said she is homophobic.Christ!
The tweet was not even hateful. She was just outlining dangers of homosexuality and warning people against it. They termed it Homophobia. She spent over 3 years working for this scholarship
Where will she even start from? Haaah! Jesus Christ ooi!
