Atleast every canadian citizens can afford going to america. How many Nigerians can afford going to america?
Trump is preventing our politicians looting our money to spend and hide in america.
We should be grateful.

I want the whole Europe to ban Nigeria too
A country full of terrorists and zombies..
They burned a US flag in Abuja when a terrorist was killed in Iran
A poverty breeding capital of the world

Any country that voted a calamity like Buhari deserve such treatment abroad...

A lifeless dullard bereft of modern day leadership ideas required to revamp our ailing economy... Always traveling to embarrass the country at any given opportunity...

When South Africans were killing our brothers and we said, let's boycott their products here, how many people stopped using MTN for that period? How many people boycotted Shoprite?

Sorry, that idea, as good as it sounds won't fly.

The product in ShopRite is for Nigerians
60% shears in MTN is for Nigerians.

Boycotting our business.

African don't know how to boycott,

In 2018, When Donald Trump imposed steel tariffs against Canadian Steel, Many Canadians responded by boycotting made in USA products.

If Nigerians are not good enough to travel to the USA, should we continue to patronize American companies like Apple, Amazon, Hewlett-Packard, Ford, GM Motors, Godaddy, Namecheap, Tom Ford, DKNY, Boeing, Tommy Hilfiger, Nike, Calvin Klein, Ralph Lauren, Levi's, Gap, etc?

Come back to reality, get serious this time around and tell me "can Nigeria as a nation actually do without America? We sold it all out to them already and have nothing left. Nigeria is not self reliance and hence needs American more than they need us. This is not just the very end of it, America just started and will do even more. Once they start (good/bad) with u, they feed u until you are satisfied.

Yeah, same way the whole of West Africa should boycott Nigeria, right?

Nigerians overstay visas and want to leave their country at all costs. That's why no serious, large developed economy would have a visa-free agreement with Nigeria. For example, Ghanaians can travel to South Africa visa free and Nigerians can't.

Those are the issues here not whether Trump banned Nigerians. Nigeria has become so bad that no one wants to stay.

So Canada and Nigeria dey the same level right Our federal government better start prostrating to them so they can have mercy on Nigeria because the way things are going so many countries will still ban us.

You are wasting your time responding to that blockhead. The level of stupidity in Nigeria is shocking. Nigeria under Buhari now owes $10 billion to the world bank.

Nigeria Debt To World Bank Rises From $1.3bn To $9.81bn In One Year’



The International Bank for Reconstruction and Development and the International Development Association, which make up the World Bank, have over the years advanced loans to Nigeria.

The IBRD lends to governments of middle-income and creditworthy low-income countries while the IDA provides concessionary loans – called credits – and grants to governments of the poorest countries.

Nigeria’s debt to the IDA and IBRD stood at $9.41bn and N409.51m as of September 30, 2019, compared to $8.39bn and $124m in September 30, 2018, according to the DMO data.

Lol! Sounds funny. Is this not a laughable question?
Where is Nigeria in the community of great Nations?
Do u think those American companies u mentioned count Nigeria as a big market?
The truth is Trump does not reckon with Nigeria, he does not see the relevance of Nigeria in international trade.
Nigeria bycotting those companies won't reduce the significance and revenues of those companies.
The best thing is for Nigeria to improve its internal security and human rights records.
The ban is specifically about poor security and human rights abuses.
Let Nigeria work on itself.

I think this isn't about discriminating against Nigeria. They gave reasons why they added Nigeria to the list, the question is, are the reasons valid?

We shouldn't all react with emotions. When you applied for a visa and tell the authorities you're going to spend 2 weeks, but end up spending forever, how do you want such country to react?

The problem with Nigeria is disloyalty and sheet stupidity. Many Nigerians are opening teeth and dancing that trump banned us. In their mind since they know they will never get chance to travel out so they don't care. Foolishly they don't understand international politics and the effect of the ban on Nigeria internationally.

Take a look at the class of countries trump grouped us into. This is how we will be viewed by the international community. If u think the ban will punish the rich or elite that u so envy, think again. They are more connected and privileged that ur sorry poor dumb ass grin
let it affect every one so we can protest ,wetin you wan go do for America,how many American you don see dey drive taxi for lagos?

The Nigerian govt is just stupid

We would have explored our diplomatic options and acted before this happened


Buhari has made it clear again and again that he does not give a fvck about the country or it's people, especially if you are from the south
