The Nigerians are said to have no valid documents that allow them to be in East Africa and that most have expired visas.

“Over 25 Nigerians arrested today in Nairobi, Kasarani, Roysambu, Mirema area for being in the country illegally after their visa validity elapsed. Please give give report if any around your area”

Said the office in a series of tweets.
