The question we should be asking is why doesn't the Nigerian government have the right equipment for this test?. It is shameful Nigeria can openly claim we do not have the capacity hence UAE should accept what we can offer. Not all countries joke with their public health as we do. |

Well this is how to know a responsive government, immediately UAE extended the ban on Nigeria then Nigeria govt should come up with a statement that they must refund those that they issued visa that it might expire as a result of there ban. 2 Likes |

Gerrard59: Rubbish. Dubai stand to lose more if Nigeria govt has the guts to retaliate. What does Emirates do for Nigeria? On the other hand, Nigerians spend millions there. |
Re: UAE Extends Ban On Nigerian Flights Till March 10 by Gerrard59(m): 11:03am On Feb 15, 2021 |
Litmus: If that were the case, the UAE won't do what she did. So, because of some infinitesimal number of tourists who I bet don't spend over 5K dollars in entire spending per trip, the UAE should overlook Nigeria's corrupt acts in issuing Covid-19 results? It's the braggadocio that gets pissed up. If Nigerians in the UAE are so economically important, how come there's no Nigerian who has gotten permanent residency status like Indians, Brits and Pakistanis? You people overrate your economic importance. Balderdash! 2 Likes 1 Share |

Gerrard59: UAE can act this inconsiderately because they understand that Nigeria is hamstrung often by sentimental block interest within Nigeria. There appear to be a hierarchy among Muslim Nations to do with Islamic traditions or beliefs, which I don’t understand, but observe. Nations with predominantly black Muslims seem somehow beholding to Islamic nations inhabited by paler peoples such as Saudi Arabia, UAE etc. Islamic block interest in Nigeria prevents Nigeria from retaliating against the UAE as Nigeria should. Should Nigeria reacts too strongly UAE would take this as an affront and it would be as if and insult shared by the powerful white Arab world. Nigeria in truth gains nothing beneficial from UAE but UAE benefits from Nigerian holidaying and shopping there. 1 Like |

Neoteny: Well, Nigerians not Emiratis are the ones whining about the ban. Sorry but poor countries shouldn't be boastful. It's the attitude that made the UAE to ban flights from Nigeria. If countries must boast, they should be rich. Respect is earned not dashed. No one disrespects a rich person. 2 Likes 1 Share |

Litmus: Everything boils to economics. Which black dominated country with a sizeable Muslim population is rich? You think if Nigeria was as rich as South Korea, they'd ban us? There is no consequence for the UAE to ban flights from Nigeria because Nigerians are very poor and largely inconsequential in the greater scheme of things. No one disrespects a rich person. BTW, how come same UAE isn't doing same to Ghanaians, South Africans, Kenyans etc? How come none of you has condemned the criminal activities by Nigerians in issuing fake Covid-19 results? 1 Like 1 Share |

Gerrard59: The UAE loses a lot more than Nigeria does, because those dollars going to Dubai are on a one-way ticket to be spent. You don't seem to understand what the issue at stake is: Emirates Airlines are requiring rapid antigen tests from some organizations which are not authorized by the Nigerian government. So because you're a developing nation some rich snob should come and do as they please? And you people want nigeria to be better? Please! 1 Like |

Neoteny: To the UAE, those dollars are negligible considering the risk of Covid-19 spreading in the country. Why should dollars from the country with the highest number of poor people in the world be more important than Covid-19 spreading, thus scaring other tourists - way richer than Nigerians - away? The issue is that Nigerians used fake Covid-19 results to enter the country. Isn't that a criminal act? Why is the same penalty not applicable to Ghana or Kenya? Why have you not condemned Abuja for being incompetent regarding the issue and Nigerians who try to export their criminal acts to lawful countries? You think the UAE is Liberia or some backwater country? Oh yes! It's the reality. Poorer countries don't have the right to dictate to richer nations how to do things. A poor person doesn't dictate to a rich person what to do, it's not done anywhere. If you really desire that Nigeria stands up to the UAE shoulder to shoulder, tell Nigerian elites to ensure the country becomes rich like South Korea. Let's see how the country and her citizens will be bullied. Ask China, no one bullies a rich country and goes scot free. The UAE - way way richer than Nigeria - can bully Nigeria and nothing will happen. 2 Likes 1 Share |

Gerrard59: Yes, I do. Nigeria is in tit-for-tat with UAE so UAE is being political although using the Covid stuff as cover. Nigeria isn’t fully committed to the brinkmanship since Nigeria is governed by a Muslim, the life activities of many wealthy and influential northern Muslim Nigerians is limited to the Arab world and to these people the White Arab world is also senior in religious terms. Besides of this, UAE is more able to count on the tacit support of Arab world unlike Nigeria that has no support from black nations because black nations are weak and riven by petty jealousies, bickering and crab mentality – such as you’ve just exhibited by mentioning inconsequential Ghana and Kenya in the same breath as Nigeria. Although, in this instance, Kenya is more relevant since Kenya like Nigeria has rooted Islamic World ties So, yeah, UAE has nothing to offer Nigeria that Nigeria cannot get elsewhere if Nigeria decides to set aside the relevance of UAE in the Islamic sense and place where Wealthy Nigerian Muslims as well as other Nigerians go to holiday or and buy stuff. 1 Like |

Gerrard59: I don't think you've a clue what you're on about. The UAE depends on tourism dollars for their economy to thrive and you're discounting nigerian dollars. You think a shopkeeper hates money from less wealthy customers? You also think just because nigeria is not as rich, she should let the UAE decide local policy in violation of our sovereignty?
