Invictus Obi as he is popularly known - is accused by the US authorities of stealing $11m (£8m) in one online scam alone.

No more Yankee for law abiding Nigerians.

You don't understand the West and it's racial obsessions. Men like Trump love black criminals, it's successful blacks they don't like. Above visa overstaying, cyba crime, Trump hates Nigerians because Nigerians are successful in America and in so doing challenging some of the foundations on which there racial philosophy is built. In addition, people like Trump have the ears of groups like the Indians for whome Nigerians are a challenge. They don't mind Nigerian cyber criminals as much as Nigerians threatening to be so good they could be employed in large numbers in silicone vally as much as they are employed in hospitals as doctors. The less Nigerians taking advantage of the 'Minorities Benefits' African Americans fought for the more space for Indians, Hispanics and others to take those advantages for instance places at Harvard.

Nigeria has a 10% rate of visa overstayer's, which is one of the highest rates based on the number of visas granted . Why wasn't Ghana,Sierra Leone,Togo or Congo banned?We only have ourselves to blame

Forget all that Ghana, Togo good guy stuff, they don't have as much collective impact as Nigerians in America. And don't divert by quoting figures since above all Nigeria is more media impactfull, more topical, more symbolic of black potential.

The ban should only apply to Nigeria's fantastically corrupt politicians.

Even though I don't support individuals who over stay there welcome in USA, I must say without mixing words that if the country was good and everything was in place travelling abroad will only be for tourism, education and likes not a way of escape, as it was in the 50's & 60's,so I must say this ban on Nigeria was successfully orchestrated over the years by our wicked,selfish and self-centered POLITICIANS, who have successfully embezzled the future destiny of the citizenry hence the need to seek greener pastures by the citizens and the final nail on the head was carried out by the present government.


So in conclusion I must say Nigerians both home & in diaspora must hold our politicians accountable for bringing this BAN on its citizenry due thier non-chalant attitude to work, continuous embezzlement over the years, failed policies, insecurity, total disregard of the rule of law amongst others too numerous to mention.

God bless Nigeria.

The fantastically corrupt politicians have destroyed the country.

If Buhari wasn't President


This won't have happened

Terrorists everywhere... They even burned a US flag in Nigeria when they killed the terrorist Iranian ...

Poverty capital of the world
Corruption capital of the world
very useless country with useless citizens

Nigeria has produced some of the greatest people in the world. We just have a few bad eggs that have unfortunately soiled our reputation before the world and the worst set of leaders in the world.

Illitracy is a disease, semi illitracy is even worse... US clearly stated that the ban was effected over Ipob yoots over staying their visit visas

If $582 billion dollars was not looted by Nigeria's fantastically corrupt politicians since independence and put into infrastructure and creating jobs- will Nigerians be overstaying their visas?African countries with good infrastructure and progressive leadership like Rwanda,Botswana and Namibia- you don't find their citizens overstaying their visas.

This visa ban is bad for Nigerians working in America on a Nigerian passport.


Nigerians working in America visa would not be renewed.

Yet, Nigeria is not among the top three of countries that over stay.

By the way, op Trump already introduced a quota to Nigeria since 2017. Hence, the rate of over stay has reduced significantly.

Visa overstaying isnt about all the stuffs you mentioned as British overstay in the US like Rapper 21 savage, i have personally met an American overstaying his free entry in UAE and still being arrogant about it as if Americans are above the law

Chinese are all over US and America over staying, even the so called Rwanda over stay in UK.. but i dont know of Botswana and Namibia

see this is only an Atitudenal problem with IPOBian yoot, they love to overstay just like migrant fulani would enter your land and refuse to go

I was in a flight with a fine Ipobian girl, and we got talking, and i enquired on the kind of Visa she was entering with, lo and behold she confidently said 2 weeks tourist visa, i ask her again if she was on vacation or family visit.. she looked at me and smiled.. she told me she aint going back to Nigeria and with her 2 weeks visa she would hustle and stay till eternity

Visa ban to Nigeria is totally unsustainable, and as ussual this would be another rash Trumps policy flipflop.. US makes good revenue from Visa sales to Nigeria, they make billions in tuition from nigeria annually, and a significant chunk of US paramedics are Nigerians same as nurses and Doctors.. even Professors in Universities

That is so sad, what about new graduates from ivy league schools like Harvard,MIT,Stanford? Will they be able to stay or have to return to Nigeria after they graduate.

Exactly, this visa ban is not justifiable at all.

MANY Nigerians living and working (paying taxes) in America would be affected by this new law as they would not be able to renew their visas or face huge difficulty in getting visas after expiration.

THE problem was with non-immigrant visas, why ban the immigrant visas.

This is very discriminatory towards Africa.

RuudVanNisteroy:

No

NO Nigerian would be able to work legally in America after studying, regardless of how intelligent the person proves to be.

Only Nigeria, Eritrea and Kazakhstan would be affected in the whole world.

Back home.

Here we go again with a fool making foolish comment. So Trump is now hating on successful Nigerians cos he inherited such hate from birth like our brother who claim Hausa Fulani Yoruba Kanuri Ikwerre Malaysians Singaporeans Chinese Indians Arabs South Africans all hate them cos they are successful developers. Anyone with this your mentality must be divinely cursed from heaven n hell.

What a senseless n foolish comment. And 3 other fools already liked this foolish comment ?!

Lies. What's the percentage of 'successful' Nigerians in US compared to that of Chinese or Indians in US? If your analogy is right, won't Trump really hate the smart Asians and ban them from coming over to US instead?
Forget the overstay story, they can always fish them out of the system. Nigeria is on that list because of terrorism and extreme jihadist views

Back home.

That is what happened to some of my friends in UK universities in their final semester. Theresa May, the then Prime Minister changed the work permit rules and all the Nigerian graduates had to return back home. Their hopes of obtaining a work permit and eventually obtaining a British passport went up in flames.

Why didn't the ban affect Saudi Arabia then?

The sooner you understand Trump's hate for anything black the better.
