You really don't have nose cilia; you have nasal hairs that act as a trap for things you breathe in.
If anything gets past them, they will then meet the cilia. Their job is to move the mucus that your tract makes. The mucous gets embedded with these particles. The cilia then move the mucus and particles up and out.
You swallow these and your stomach acids destroy all of it. The cilia are like a janitor who always sweeps up the messes. If these are destroyed (smoking), the whole thing comes to a halt, and you then have to try to cough and pull up this now thickened mess.

How does cilia prevent pathogens from entering your body?
Cilia protect your body from pathogens up to a certain extent. The cilia in your lungs prevent dust particles and other such particles you breathe from entering your lungs by trapping them and sweeping them away. The cilia located on the cell membrane prevents certain substances from entering the selectively permeable cell membrane through that same manner. However, if you get a cut or something, cilia are not really going to protect pathogens from entering your body from that cut.
