How Fola got her US visa
In a TikTok video, Fola said she had to travel to Ivory Coast because she needed to leave Nigeria by a specific time.
Fola explained that she checked Ivory Coast’s visa website and found an available date. She had her interview and got an approval days later. A part of her voice over of the TikTok clip went thus:
“I travelled to Ivory Coast for my visa appointment after being unable to secure a date in Nigeria for over 3 weeks despite needing to leave the country by a specific time.
“When I checked the Ivory Coast visa website, I found an available appointment for October 28th and immediately I booked a flight for the 25th.
“After my interview, I was informed that my visa will be ready for pickup in just two days. I was like, really serious…”
When asked if she had any interview in Nigeria, Fola replied:
“No, I didn’t have any interview in Nigeria before I left. My interview was done in Abidjan.”
