The Australian Home Affairs Department in Canberra says the action follows internal disciplinary investigations.

The Australian High Commission in Pretoria is referring all inquiries to the country’s home affairs department in Canberrra.

They’ve confirmed that the visa of a Nigerian who is  on a student visa in Australia has been cancelled as a result of fraudulent conduct.

Australian home affairs officials in Pretoria and  Nairobi deal with issuing visas to African visitors.

They employ nationals from South Africa and a number of other African countries  to do the job.

The department has not specified the nationality of the sacked officials nor has it given the number of fraudulent visas they are believed to have issued.
