yay thats good news but what you should actually do is close your embassy and stop Nigerians from even getting visas entirely now that would be a welcome development let us sit at home and restructure our country. and for those saying trump is racist please he only cares about his country you can see this in his messages "AMERICA FIRST" "MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN" i advise you to focus on your country and leave American out of your mouths.

US Moves To Restrict Nigerian Students To Two-Year Courses Over ‘National Security’

This is nice. Everybody should go and develop their countries and study there. If all countries can ban Nigerians from studying in their countries maybe it will compel our wicked and highly unpatriotic leaders to fix our higher institutions since they'll have no place to send their children to for higher learning.

This has nothing to do with national security. Trump is trying to limit the number of black people immigrating to the US. He only wants whites coming in. He is finding legal ways to perfect his racist agenda. The "Jews" of Nigeria will continue to support him blindly and foolishly.
Last I checked, he did not include Benin, Togo, Ghana, S.A, Malawi and majority of African countries. Blame your Buhari for this.

And how would forcing 2 year visas on students from these countries solve anything, US self ehn, if you have sense there are many other countries to run to, but why that hovel filled with radical communists and fascists.

yup, and almost all Black majority countries. i know its a tough pill to swallow but here's your info.

Under DHS's new proposed rule, if you were born in, or are a citizen of, one of the countries on this map, you would be banned from getting a four-year degree in the United States, with a student visa limited to two years maximum.

The thread has all the countries.

I didnt vote but I encouraged peklle to vote that man in. With the way people came out en masse and what I saw, I somehow believed that finally Nigerians had grown some balls and have stopped taking shít. That somehow if that man didnt perform we will still rally round and boot him out in 2k19. I was wrong

i just noticed, the Dominican Republic is excluded and Haitian students are banned, and they share the same island. angry

some important history for all. pls don't sleep on global institutional racism

Although one-quarter Haitian, Trujillo promoted propaganda against Haitian people.[99] In 1937, he ordered what became known as the Parsley Massacre or, in the Dominican Republic, as El Corte (The Cutting),[100] directing the army to kill Haitians living on the Dominican side of the border. The army killed an estimated 17,000 to 35,000 Haitian men, women, and children over six days, from the night of October 2, 1937, through October 8, 1937. [/b]To avoid leaving evidence of the army's involvement, the soldiers used edged weapons rather than guns.[71][99][101] The soldiers were said to have interrogated anyone with dark skin, using the shibboleth perejil (parsley) to distinguish Haitians from Afro-Dominicans when necessary; the 'r' of perejil was of difficult pronunciation for Haitians.[100] As a result of the massacre, the Dominican Republic agreed to pay Haiti US$750,000, later reduced to US$525,000.[102][96] In 1938, reports from the Dominican Republic revealed hundreds more Haitians had been killed and thousands deported.

Congratulations to our politicians... They have managed to make Nigeria the laughing stock of all nations...

They loot our billions and run to USA and other first world countries to spend the loots... Buying exotic apartments in Dubai, like Atiku, in UK like Deziani and USA like Bukola... All this money could build and revitalise our real estate sector and even make Nigeria the prime destination for tourists...

But no... They steal from our country and big banks like HSBC help them ferry the loot abroad... They use their family members as conduit pipes to loot and bleed the country dry... meanwhile the common man keeps dying everyday from hardship, bad roads, poor healthcare etc...

Corruption has eroded both the public and private sector and killing Nigeria and Nigerians daily yet we don't want to kill it...

Is it not high time we start hanging those who loot from the treasury?

The north will readily agree but will the south support this move?

The south with all its intellectual sophistication is the driver and enabler of corruption in Nigeria.

The impoverished people there cannot use their intellect to challenge and effect a positive change in Nigeria... Their opposition to govt is only to give them an opportunity to get into power and steal from the treasury and abuse office.

Truly we have become sophisticated fools in Nigeria...


Perhaps the whole world should ban us from their countries and force us to return and fix this country instead of destroying it with our stupidity then running away to another country.

It will shock you to know that 80% of Nigerians abroad are southerners... South South, south east and south west.

u said well. But do u mean 80% of Nigerians abroad or 80% in EU and US?

Our government would not respond to this, if it were to be Visa ban/restrictions for electoral corrupt politicians, you would see our government reacting like a dog that it's tail has been stepped on.

Cousin9999:
Canada and Europe don't care, and it's cheaper. And in Canada, you're pretty much guaranteed a path to citizenship or a green card if you do your research.

This probably won't stick. It's just a racist dog whistle.

Just saw this on Twitter. Part of the Trump administration's racist policies.

It's important to note that under these proposals, you can still study for a four year degree as a Nigerian but you will have to renew your visa after every 2 years.

How is this racist? Doesn't your FG support and promote killing by Fulani herdsmen that are known as the fourth deadliest terrorist group in the world. And FG called IPOB a terrorist group and clamped down on it but do nothing about terrorist Fulani herdmen. Go and talk to your president.

I'm currently schooling in America. PhD for the matter. But anyone still coming to school in America right now needs to get their head checked. There are far better countries to go to and pursue your dreams or academic endeavors.

It's clear that trumps policies have been anti black, African and pro white. If you're not seeing that yet then you must be very blind.

So you didn’t see where Nigeria was categorised as a STATE SPONSORED TERRORISTS COUNTRY. When, in the annals of this country was it ever regarded as such? Don’t blindly and sheepishly defend the indefensible.

Why wasn’t neighboring African countries included in the list? Don’t be blind. Be reasonable please

Some of you suffer from reading comprehension. The article did not provide an exhaustive list of nations this will affect. From what I got from the article, this policy will affect all foreign students studying in the United States should the policy be enacted.

Since the article was written by a Nigerian, the writer of the article made it seem the law is going to target only Nigerian students but it's not.

Besides, everyone residing in the United States knows that Trump's ultimate goal is to restrict non-Black people from entering into the United States. Things have become really bad in the United States at the moment even for her citizens and many Black citizens are fleeing the country. Some white Americans are fleeing the United States too.

Nigerians in Nigeria really don't understand the situation on ground. They think it's all about buhari, Boko Haram and fulani herdsmen. They don't realize it's deeper than that.
