“Why Approve Our Visas If You Don’t Want Nigerians?” – DJ Dimple Nipple Recounts Harrowing Experience with Philippine Immigration (VIDEO)

Popular Nigerian disc jockey Rachel Oluwabukola Martins, known as DJ Dimple Nipple, has spoken out about what she describes as a deeply traumatic encounter with immigration authorities in the Philippines.

In an emotional Instagram post titled “My Manila Immigration Nightmare,” the entertainer recounted how she and a friend were detained upon arrival, strip-searched, filmed, and made to sleep on the floor of what she described as a detention-like facility — all despite having valid visas, sponsorship letters, and return tickets.

“I was so excited about my gig in the Philippines. I had made all the necessary arrangements, spent money, and genuinely looked forward to the experience,” she wrote.

According to her, the trouble began immediately after arriving in Manila from Lagos via Qatar. DJ Dimple Nipple alleged that immigration officers treated them with suspicion from the outset, subjecting them to long hours of interrogation and invasive searches.

“We greeted the officers politely, but they were cold and unwelcoming… Then came the humiliation,” she said.

She further accused Philippine authorities of both discrimination and extortion, expressing frustration over the treatment of Nigerian citizens who travel legally.

“If you don’t want Nigerians, why approve our visas and take our money? Why detain and shame us when we arrive legally? Why not just place a travel ban?” she questioned.

Calling for accountability, Martins urged the Philippine Department of Foreign Affairs and immigration officials to address the incident and explain why travelers with proper documentation were treated in such a degrading manner.
