Again, the Nigerian passport has been ranked the 20th worst-performing travel document in the world for the third time in a row, according to The Henley Passport Index, a recognised authority in rating passports from countries worldwide.

Japan, whose citizens can access 193 countries without obtaining a prior visa, ranked first in the global passport ranking.

Singapore and South Korea placed second as bearers of their passports can easily enter 192 nations without a visa.

The Henley Passport Index relies on data collated from the International Air Transport Association (IATA) with essential travel statistics from 199 different passports and 227 travel destinations.

Holders of Nigerian passports can access only 46 nations, mostly in Africa, with the green-hued document visa-free or visa-on-arrival policy, earning it the 180th position among 199 countries.

Other countries among the 20 worst-performing passports are Eritrea, Iran, Iraq, South Sudan, Somalia, Yemen, Bangladesh, Lebanon, Libya, Pakistan, and Syria.

Afghanistan, however, ranked the worst-performing passport as its holders are limited to accessing only 27 nations without a visa.

Nigeria has had a string of poor rankings since 2006.

Are you surprised? What do you expect before

This is what Nigeria has been reduced to after 6 decades of gaining independence.

So Ukraine passport is even better than the Nigerian passport .
It seems Mazi was right after all

passport is just a booklet

You won't understand the pains of a Nigerian passport until you begin to travel out.

Just imagine what it will get to if a man enmeshed in drugs/ terrorist sympathizer becomes the face of our presidency?

Vote wisely! Let us kickstart a new glorious Nigeria.
Vote PODATTI.

Thats what happens when our Eastern Brothers move from country to country with drugs.
Not less than one Igbo man is caught with drugs per day worldwide.....
Same tribe that calls Tinubu who has never been sentenced for any drug case a drug dealer.
If it's not substandard products it's drugs.

Another set of Nigerians are in Dubai and other places butchering themselves in the Name of cultists.....

But we are Nigerians so let's blame Buhari again...

I'm surprised at all
If tinubu becomes the president God forbid! Nigerian passport will take over the number spot as the worst passport in the whole world..

It is Tinubu that made you evil people’s passport to be worthless?,Yet it is an established fact that Na your people across the River Niger bridge carry narcotics pass amongst Nigerian tribes from Jordan to Indonesia.

Confused Incubus, you have not started suffering in Nigeria yet. Hypocrites.

We know Colombians and Mexicans are top dealers, difference is that they are smarter.
They cook the drugs but hardly carry the drugs which reduces their chances of getting caught.
You easterners work as drug mulles for almost every drugs cartel in the world.
Or how many times have you heard of a Mexican getting caught ALL OVER THE WORLD as you Igbos get caught like MTN ( EVERYWHERE YOU GO)

I have always said Nigerians like suffering is the truth,how can we have people still supporting apc and pdp don't be surprised if Peter obi don't win, I have told,people, just vote Peter obi and leave the rest for God,imagine anambra people did not even attended his campaign, in mass, na igbo people go betray us,

I saw it this morning o. I was surprised that even Senegalese passport is more valid than ours. Very soon, na only ECOWAS we go fit go

Nigerians should stop fraud, yahoo and cultism. Maybe it will get better. Anywhere you mention Nigeria, the first thing on people's mind is fraud. Not even drugs... Fraud.
