US embassy discriminate against pregnant Nigerian women?

US embassy discriminate against pregnant Nigerian women?




The United States’ embassy in Nigeria seems to have perfected the art of denying well-meaning and legitimate non-immigrant Nigerian mothers visa for reasons best known to it.

At the end of visa interview sessions, what one hears is, ‘’You are not qualified at this time’’!  
Women of child-bearing age are asked questions such as: Are you pregnant at this time?
How many children do you have? Do you plan to have more children? And if the response to any of these questions is in the affirmative, then the next set of questions may be: 
Do you plan to have the baby in America? Can you afford to pay the medical bills?  
You are probably asked to show evidence and even after showing evidence you are told mostly that you do not qualify at this time or that you should reapply after having your baby.
