Popular investigative journalist, David Hundeyin is currently detained in Zimbabwe shortly after his arrival at Harare Airport.
In a post on his Twitter handle on Wednesday, he wrote “I landed in Zimbabwe earlier today, and I have been detained at Harare Airport inside a smelly locked room for nearly 7 hours”.
“They said that despite using the travel document of a country with a visa-free relationship, my nationality is still Nigerian, and thus, I need a visa”.
“I was processed for removal from their country and locked in a tiny room, but I have heard nothing from anyone for several hours”.
“Alongside a lady from Uganda (also a visa-free country), I have been locked in a room with no windows or toilet, plus a bottle of pee on the floor”.
“No one appears to be in charge of anything, and even though my return flight to Addis has been rescheduled for tonight, I am still locked in this room, and I risk missing my flight.
They appear to have forgotten that they have people in detention here”.
