A Nigerian woman living in China has tearfully recounted how she was asked to leave her apartment after unknowingly allowing an undocumented immigrant to spend a few hours in her home.
According to her, the incident happened after she celebrated her birthday with friends. One of the guests later called, claiming he could not reach his roommate and needed somewhere to sleep.
She agreed to accommodate him, but a few hours later, police officers arrived at her apartment.
The woman said the man immediately warned her not to open the door, explaining that the police were looking for him. The officers eventually gained entry and apprehended him.
She claimed the man had overstayed his visa and was on the authorities' wanted list. According to her, surveillance cameras helped the police trace him to her apartment.
Although she explained that she had no knowledge of his immigration status, she said she was ordered to vacate the apartment and pay a fine.
The woman also claimed that the apartment had been sealed, preventing the landlord from renting it out to another tenant.
She lamented losing her two-month security deposit despite recently paying her rent, adding that she was grateful the incident did not affect her visa.
Sharing her experience, she urged others living abroad to be careful about whom they accommodate, saying she decided to speak out to prevent someone else from making the same mistake.
