Zimbabwean comedian Felistas Murata, better known as Mai Titi, recently shed light on her deportation issue from the UK. According to Mai Titi, upon her arrival in the UK, authorities were already aware of her visits and suspected work activities, which prompted an investigation.
Mai Titi clarified that she does not engage in work while in the UK. Instead, she explained that her trips are solely for delivering pre-paid products to her clients, who have already made online payments while she is in Zimbabwe.
During the inspection, immigration officials found cosmetics and curtains in Mai Titi’s luggage, which she intended to deliver to her clients. She revealed that authorities conducted an interview regarding her business operations in the UK. Mai Titi was honest in explaining that clients pay for her services through her accounts or platforms like WorldRemit.
After a thorough two-hour inquiry, immigration authorities concluded that Mai Titi’s activities were considered employment, necessitating the appropriate work visa. Contrary to rumors, Mai Titi clarified that she was not banned from the UK for ten years. Instead, she was informed that bringing and distributing products in the UK without the appropriate visa was considered employment, prompting the authorities to deny her entry with her products.

“Hey fam I know u worried I see all your messages but I’m ok. Will do a live when I settle down in the meantime don’t listen to all these lies. I got to the Uk and as usual they had information from obviously you know who. That everytime I come here I’m working. I told them I don’t work in the uk all I do is bring my products to my clients who would have already paid online whilst I’m back home.
They searched all my bags and found my cosmetics and also curtains wich I was bringing for Khloe. They did me an interview as to how I’m selling my products in the uk
I was honest and told them people pay me through my accounts or world remmit. After 2 hrs they returned and told me that what I was doing is employement I needed the correct visa for that.
I was not banned for 10 years , I was told i can’t enter with my products because that’s employment. I was sent to a place not sure the name and was told i was advised by some that if I didn’t want to return I can claim Asylum.
Why should I claim Asylum? Who is chasing me ? I don’t want to live in the uk I always come in and go . They told me I was using my Visa for the wrong reasons and that will not affect my future I should take the correct visa for what I want to do.
I’m ok and I m going back home because there s no need for me to stay especially if my products can’t enter . When I get home I will send these orders through shipping rather than bring them on my own cz obviously some people are after my work.
As usual they didn’t like the fact that last time I entered uk after they had said I will never .
I will still prove them wrong by taking the necessary documents and returning whenever I want .
We learn as we go no hard feelings.
My dear customers I’m sorry once more once I get home will use shipping. Thank you Shumba s Lawyer Mr bhebhe. You did your best
Godbless you,”she posted.
