“For DV-2015, natives of the following countries are not eligible to apply, because more than 50,000 natives of these countries immigrated to the United States in the previous five years: Bangladesh, Brazil, Canada, China (mainland-born), Colombia, Dominican Republic, Ecuador, El Salvador, Haiti, India, Jamaica, Mexico, Nigeria, Pakistan, Peru, Philippines, South Korea, United Kingdom (except Northern Ireland) and its dependent territories, and Vietnam.''

deeptesting:

Dude be careful, you almost dashed my last hope of living this country legitimately without headache with a robust hope of becoming a U.S citizen...I have been applying for DV Lottery that I have lost count of the year I started applying and up until now I have not given up.... My friend for the second time be very very careful..

ajayitp04: Imagine, 50,000 immigrants in d last 5 yrs. 1 thing keeps bothering me, for how long are we going 2 do this? Some are so desperate 2 travel 2 europe enroute paths that even angels fear to tread. Forgeting that Nigeria can be a better place if we join hands 2gether. All these places we're running 2, they become what they are 2day because the citizens did'nt deny their land & heritage by fleeing, rather they joined hands 2geda 2 bring abt revolutionary change. We can do it here as well, YES WE CAN, irrespective of religious, ethnic & cultural differences, YES WE CAN.

hammedkola: Firstly, it was British £3,000 bond fee,

Let us stay home, deal with all the thieves and Make Nigeria better again....

I don't think your insinuations matters much because what he said is the truth. How long will this continue? I'm sure the more we ask ourselves this question, the more we might make effort to emancipate ourselves from Nigeria political wolves. Everyone wants to run away but have it in mind everyone can't. While you may succeed, your family members will still be left in this hell hole, is that all we want? Living a good life in another man's land while our relatives, friends and family wallow in despair and hopelessness at home? Who dey cry dey see road o!

sweetkev: I don cry cry to say water finish for my eyes since I hear this sad news.

REALITY101:

Lol nigga who's passport you stole?

trolling: being born in Nigeria doesn't necessarily make someone a Nigerian or African , meaning they are not bound to that land

Burger01:
Believe me some Nigerians are just hopeless. They forget that there is no place like home and wherever one is one is still regarded a Nigerian. There is nuffin in usa except you don't say the truth. I do my hols yearly in Massachusetts and I tell you people suffer in that place. Lottery my foot. It's just a slavery system that most people shy away from this reality..
Nigerians wake up and stop being third rated citizens in your host countries. Smh.

VisaOfficer: FYI, Wikipedia is wrong about this. I'm a Consular officer and I can attest that the threshold of 50,000 visas in five years has NOT been met in Nigeria. If there is a 2015 Diversity Visa program, under current rules, Nigeria will be eligible.
