A lot has been said on this thread about building a travel history to other countries with a similar visa application process as the U.S. before applying for a U.S. visitor visa. Note that you can still be granted a U.S. visitor visa without having a travel history, taking other factors into consideration.

The link below lists 44 Countries Nigerian Passport Holders can Visit without a Visa. After going through the list it got me thinking (most are African and Caribbean/Island nations with only one European nation). My guess is that it might be the case that when you mention that you have traveled to any of these 44 countries, a U.S. VO already knows that there was no rigorous visa application process before you were allowed in.

Just my two cents (or two kobo).

The countries are:
1. Bangladesh
2. Barbados
3. Republic of Benin
4. Burkina Faso
5. Burundi
6. Cameroon
7. Cape Verde

Iran bans English in primary schools after leaders' warning
Reuters Staff

DUBAI (Reuters) - Iran has banned the teaching of English in primary schools, a senior education official said, after Islamic leaders warned that early learning of the language opened the way to a Western “cultural invasion”.

“Teaching English in government and non-government primary schools in the official curriculum is against laws and regulations,” Mehdi Navid-Adham, head of the state-run High Education Council, told state television late on Saturday.

“This is because the assumption is that, in primary education, the groundwork for the Iranian culture of the students is laid,” Navid-Adham said, adding that non-curriculum English classes may also be blocked.

The teaching of English usually starts in middle school in Iran, around the ages of 12 to 14, but some primary schools, below that age, also have English classes.

Some children also attend private language institutes after their school day. And many children from more privileged families attending non-government schools receive English tuition from daycare through high school.

Iran’s Islamic leaders have often warned about the dangers of a “cultural invasion”, and Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei voiced outrage in 2016 over the “teaching of the English language spreading to nursery schools”.

Khamenei, who has the final say in all state matters, said in that speech to teachers: “That does not mean opposition to learning a foreign language, but (this is the) promotion of a foreign culture in the country and among children, young adults and youths.”

“Western thinkers have time and again said that instead of colonialist expansionism ... the best and the least costly way would have been inculcation of thought and culture to the younger generation of countries,” Khamenei said, according to the text of the speech posted on a website run by his office (Leader.ir).

In the autonomous and highly industralized/wealthy region of Catalonia (capital-Barcelona), Catalan is the official language, in addition to Spanish. Catalan is a whole separate language, as in not a dialect of Spanish.

It was during Franco dictatorship (1939-1975) that the use of the Catalan language was banned. In recent times, there has been calls by Catalonians for independence from Spain.
Note that modern Spain did not exist as a country until 1469 (or 1492). Prior to the late 15th century, there were different kingdoms in Spain which were separate countries socially, politically, legally, and in currency and language

martineverest:
nice one.....but what will u say about Spain and Catalan.......Catalans aren't happy that Spanish govt are imposing Spanish on them instead of allowing them use their native catalan as their official language

There is a difference between an official language and national/regional language.
An official language is a language used for high-status functions in a state:, including by the government, education, and media. Most of the time it (or they) will have been declared official through a law or in the constitution of that country.

A national language is a language that is widespread in a country and has some symbolic status (i.e., it is a symbol of the country or group). For obvious reasons, a national language is also an official language. For example, Japanese is both the official language of Japan as well as the (only) national language there, French is both national and official, and many other examples can be found. Another , although slightly different example can be found in the Republic of Ireland, where both English and Irish are national languages and official languages although Irish is not very widespread anymore.

However, sometimes an official language is not a national language. This situation is commonplace in Africa, where European languages (French, English, and Portuguese) are official languages but are not national languages.

So Hausa, Igbo, Yoruba and other languages in Nigeria are national languages predominately spoken in certain regions of the country.
Hausa is the regional language in Northern Nigeria (mainly North West and North East), just like Yoruba is in the 6 states in South West Nigeria and Igbo in the 5 states in South East Nigeria.

In India, with a population of 1.2 billion, the official languages are Hindi (largest number of speakers) and English (used extensively in business and administration; it is important in education, especially as a medium of higher education). India has no national language. Each state and union territory has one or more official languages, and the constitution recognises in particular 22 "scheduled languages": Hindi, Telugu, Kannada, Tamil, Kashmiri, Marathi, Punjabi, Urdu, Sanskrit, Gujarati, Bengali, Sindhi, Santaji, Odia, Nepali, Manipuri, Maithili, Konkani, Dogri, Bodo, Malayalam, and Assamese.

martineverest:
u are not quite correct.... in northern Nigeria,the official language is Hausa first,then English...... same with west+(.Yoruba and 3nglish) and east(Ibo and English)......it's not wrong to mix English with hausa.most of them are more comfortable teaching in their native dialet

I think people are missing the whole aspect of language in education. The official language of a country determines the language in which it's citizens are taught.
In Kenya, the official languages are Swahili and English.
In China, it is Chinese.
In Japan, Japanese.
In Italy, Italian.
In France, French.
In UK, English.
In North Korea, Korean.
In Nigeria, the official language is English.
In South Africa, they have 11 official languages - Afrikaans, English, Ndebele, Northern Sotho, Sotho, SiSwati, Tsonga, Tswana, Venda, Xhosa and Zulu.
So for most countries, it is not really a preference but a choice that has been made decades ago based on the fact that majority of the original inhabitants belong to one ethnic group (except of course in most of Africa in which countries were created by foreigners).

In Nigeria, none of the major languages listed as Hausa, Igbo and Yoruba can be imposed on the whole country as an official language because of the numerous ethnic groups and languages. The major languages are usually used for teaching at the state or regional levels in primary schools.

martineverest:
u spoke my mind...modern Nigerian youth are really suffering from low self esteem

Kenyans and other east Africa nations prefer Swahili to English.

I served in Ibadan,most of the students were comfortable learning maths in yoruba

Theresa May’s search for wife in Nigeria
By Paul Onomuakpokpo
19 April 2018 | 3:43 am

It is either that British Prime Minister Theresa May is on the verge of divorcing her husband or she is a lesbian even though she is married to a man, Philip.
In either case, the PM might be considering taking a wife from Nigeria or any other Commonwealth country that her ancestors presided over its expropriation and ruination.

Obviously, May is ruing her mistake of ever getting married to a man. She would have preferred to be a lesbian-husband with a wife. Or why is she rhapsodising about the glories of homosexuality?

If May does not hanker after lesbianism, then she should be charged with duplicity directed at sexually perverting millions of other people while she is enjoying being married to a man.

We could see May’s duplicity in her proselytising zeal for same-sex marriage while at the same time professing how much she has enjoyed the benefits of the marriages of others.

In an interview with a journalist, May described her not having her own children as “very sad.” But she added that the devastation of her childlessness had been assuaged by the consciousness that she was surrounded by nieces and nephews.

If May is so enamoured of same-sex marriage, why does she feel frustrated that she has no children of her own? And if the parents of her nieces and nephews were homosexuals would they have had those children who now comfort her?

Again, we glean May’s humbug from claiming to be a Christian whose pains of childlessness are eased by her Christian faith. Yet, this renegade daughter of a vicar does not adhere to her Christian injunctions that do not permit same-sex marriage.

Apparently, the kind of bible that May reads and on which she builds her Christian faith does not have these: Romans1: 26-28, Mark 10: 6-9 and 1Timothy 1: 8-11.

And if she reads only the Old Testament, these are equally not in her bible: Genesis2: 24, Leviticus 18:22 and Leviticus 20:13.

May has been married for almost 40 years. As a young lady, she did not see the need to marry a woman.

It is now that she is in her sixties that she is preaching the virtues of same-sex marriage.

She seized the opportunity of the Commonwealth Heads of Government meeting in Westminster to hector countries that were previously under her ancestors’ colonial tyranny on the need for them to make laws to encourage same-sex marriage.

She cautioned them that former British colonial subjects should not continue with the mistake of their previous masters who made laws that were against same-sex marriage.

Of course, May is not the first Western leader to have made this proposal. In fact, there is a scramble for Africa in the 21st century that is not limited to the economic provenance.

The scramble is in the realm of sexual disruption. There is a hot race by Western leaders to see who would be the first to make former colonised subjects to accept same-sex marriage.

Indeed, it has been cited that the refusal of former President Goodluck Jonathan to legitimise same-sex marriage was a major reason the Western powers mustered all their resources to ensure his loss of the 2015 presidential election.

The then United States President Barack Obama became the rallying point for the campaign for the sexual travestisation of Nigerians.

Now that Obama has left office, he now has sufficient time to groom his two daughters on how to maintain their marital homes as lesbian-wives or lesbian-husbands.

Obama failed in his project because Nigeria at that time had a president and a National Assembly that were protective of their cultural heritage. It was the same case in Kenya where Obama also took his campaign.

The challenge for Nigeria and other Commonwealth countries is whether they still have leaders who would resist this pressure.

But here we must be alert to the danger posed by African leaders who are irresistibly seduced by power. They want to stay as long as possible. They want to violate their national constitutions in order to be president for life.

In this case, we must not rule out the possibility of African leaders trading off their pristine sexual ethos in order for Western powers to sustain them in office.

After all, lazy African leaders who are submerged by the saccharine privileges of office and who are bereft of the grand ideas about governance look up to the West to carry their burden of development .

So if this aid is now tied to the acceptance of same-sex-marriage, would African leaders have the courage to resist?

In the long run, it is the citizens and not their leaders who would determine the sexual tone of their societies. This is because no matter how much aid the West gives to African countries, it is not meant to develop them.

There is always a pound of flesh that must be prised from the aid recipient. African leaders must be made to consider home-grown solutions to their own problems.

The Western countries that they run to have their own problems. But they do not run to African leaders to fix them.

Now, same-sex aficionados would be deluded with the notion that they have got a veritable bulwark in May. Nigerians who have not been able to secure the British visa would now think that they have got an opportunity.

They would now recount their persecution at the hands of the state authorities because of their sexual difference, hoping that May would throw the gates of Britain open for them.

It thus becomes necessary for the Nigerian government to strengthen its laws on same-sex marriage.

They should not repudiate them because they are part of the legacies of the Jonathan era that is often disparaged as one of the darkest epochs in the nation’s life.

But the homosexuals who have been frenziedly canvassing their sexual right since the exit of Jonathan have the option of quietly engaging in their sexual perversions.

They do not need a law for them to be homosexuals unless they are bent on demonstrating their sodomistic prowess in the public square.

In that case, they have to wait until their British cheer leaders succeed in torpedoing the laws against same-sex-marriage in Nigeria.

By making a case for the perpetuation of our pristine sexual ethos, we have not embarked on a voyage of racial essentialism.

Again, we are not oblivious of the warning of Frantz Fanon that a people’s quest for freedom, in our case, economic freedom, must not be beholden to fossilised cultural practices. For, as he tells us,

“ … it is to the zone of occult instability where the people dwell that we must come.” But while globalisation alerts the wise to the necessity of replicating at home good values from the rest of the world, we must insist on retaining those aspects of our culture that define our essence.

One of such aspects is our sexual beliefs. Yes, formerly colonised nations still trail behind Western countries that have for centuries succeeded in establishing institutions that conduce to their cohesion and the protection of their citizens’ dignity.

Yet, in terms of cultural values and the tolerance that seek to preserve the humane race and forbid gleefully taunting perceived or real enemies with the ease with which one could access a nuclear button, they have so much to learn from us.

Forget about the unrelieved jeremiad of Africa being riven by corruption. For them to be saved from the catastrophe of the loss of the moral vision through which their ancestors built their countries, they must come down from their high horse and accept Africans as their teachers

So, if May wants a wife from Nigeria with the support of its government, she would definitely be disappointed.

Nor would she find succour in the United States which was a bastion of same-sex marriage advocacy in the Obama era.

Now, she is not likely to be a welcome guest of President Donald Trump.

But she could find a wife in France, Germany, Luxembourg, New Zealand, Denmark and other such countries that have embraced the prospect of extinction by endorsing same-sex marriage.

wink2015:
Theresa May this news will interest you.

You spoke during the 2018 Commonwealth Summit that African Countries should be democratic in their approach to gay rights issue.

We African do not need Gay, Lesbian, and the rest of the homosexuals in our land.

African countries need the western power to invest in infrastructures in Africa such as Electricity, good Roads, jobs, and food for the masses.

Gay issue is alien to our society from what can be seen in the photos where two defaulters were shamefully paraded uncladed on the public street.

Just thought I should provide this information for those applying for non-immigrant visas.

"The United States is an open society. Unlike many other countries, the United States does not impose internal controls on most visitors, such as registration with local authorities. Our immigration law requires consular officers to view every visa applicant as an intending immigrant until the applicant proves otherwise. In order to enjoy the privilege of unencumbered travel in the United States, you have a responsibility to prove you are going to return abroad before a visitor or student visa is issued.

Section 214(b) is part of the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA). It states:
Every alien shall be presumed to be an immigrant until he establishes to the satisfaction of the consular officer, at the time of application for admission, that he is entitled to a nonimmigrant status..."

With the sale of 9mobile to Teleology, 2 out of the 4 mobile operators are now 100% Nigerian companies. The other being Globacom. Airtel will be a company to watch, especially with it pulling out of some other African countries.

It seems my instincts were right when I said last year on another thread that Teleology might end up buying 9mobile. For those looking for information on the faces behind Teleology, see my previous post below:

Re: Airtel, Smile, Glo Make Final Five To Buy 9mobile by Kolping: 3:52pm On Dec 13, 2017
I wonder why no one is talking about Teleology Holdings Limited. I see it as the dark horse in this race.

Teleology is a special purpose vehicle led by a former chief executive of MTN Nigeria, Mr. Adrian Wood, and Ericsson; Africa Capital Alliance (ACA), a leading pan-African investment firm based in Lagos; and The Carlyle Group, a U.S.-based multinational private equity, alternative asset management and financial services corporation.

Note that Africa Capital Alliance was co-founded by the present Minister of Industry, Trade and Investment, Okey Enelamah who was the former CEO. ACA Partners include Chief Ernest Shonekan (founder), Pascal Dozie (founder), Dick Kramer (founder and chairman), Cyril Odu (CEO), Afolabi Oladele, Sam Oniovosa, Paul Kokoricha and Kofi Kwakwa.
