Despite the continued border closure by the Nigerian government, president Buhari today said that African nationals would no longer need visa to enter Nigeria.

Buhari said this in Egypt at the ongoing Aswan Forum, according to Ambassador Ahmed Awad, Minister of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation of the Federal Republic of Somalia.

Earlier this year, the Nigerian government blamed killer herdsmen from Chad, Libya, Niger Republic and other African countries for the incessant killings in the Nigerian hinterlands especially Kogi, Benue, Enugu, Anambra, Ekiti, Ogun and Ebonyi state.

Awad, who was at the Aswan Forum in a tweet said that starting from January 2020, all Africans will be able to arrive in Nigeria without visa.

He said, “I wish to profoundly commend President @MBuhari of #Nigeria who just announced at the Aswan Forum complete visa exemption for all Africans.

"Starting January 2020, Africans will be able to arrive in Nigeria without visas.

"It’s such an exemplary decision. Thanks your Excellency."

Oponu

Another decree by the Major General.

Nigeria is not his family house where he can make pronouncements and it is valid ....we have a legislature albeit a rubber stamp who duty it is to make laws and changes of this nature. Nigeria is democracy not monarchy

Imagine what this man is saying!

Let him revert to President Mamman Daura to be very sure of this statement

Madness

Buhari has lost it... Now Nigeria has been marked The state for All

And we have been managing the government and her economy;inadequacies of the government to meet the needs of her citizens...

2020 will be based on survival of the fittest.
Now imagine South Africans and Ghanaians coming to reap that which they didn't sow... After threatening and killing our loved ones in their country....

Does the president even have advisory bodies?
Does he just utter words haphazardly just like a wailing woman?

Is this wise?

Who approved such policy and when did the legislature pass this law?

The Dictator has spoken.

great. more fulanis from chad and mali

President was talking about Nigeria not Biafra


Meanwhile

Okay.

When other Africans are coming to Nigeria, you can order the immigration officers to stop them.

Btw, this is Nigeria, so allow we Nigerians to decide what we want.

Good news....let them bring rice.

This is decree 109 which can't be found in anywhere in the constitution. Let him continue invite Somali and other arab to Nigeria . The same people will butcher his head when he leave the office. Maybe he thought he will continue to enjoy security protection like what is currently enjoying .
