Jason Njoku, the business mogul, recently shared an experience he and his wife, Remmy, had with an immigration officer in Venice, Italy. The couple had traveled to Venice for a short stay when the immigration officer asked to see their returning ticket instead of asking how long they intend to stay, which is the usual question. Jason revealed that he and his wife burst out laughing at the question, which irritated the immigration officer. According to Jason, he had given the man their first-class tickets and asked the man if he and his wife look like people who came to the country to hustle.
Jason shared this experience in reaction to a Tweep who revealed that he had recently experienced racial profiling for the first time in his life. The tweep explained that at the Milan Linate Airport, he passed security checks, but two police officers stationed in front of the security check stopped a black man dressed in a Senegalese kaftan as he walked towards the gates.
