Trump travel ban barring citizens from 12 countries takes effect 3 hours ago Lucy Clarke-Billings BBC News Share Save EPA Image shows US President Donald Trump walking to board Marine One on the South Lawn of the White House in Washington DC, US, on 6 June 2025EPA President Donald Trump's sweeping new travel ban which bars citizens of 12 countries from entering the United States came into effect at 00:00 ET (05:00 BST) on Monday. The order, which Trump signed last week, restricts the nationals of Afghanistan, Myanmar, Chad, Congo-Brazzaville, Equatorial Guinea, Eritrea, Haiti, Iran, Libya, Somalia, Sudan and Yemen from entering the US. Nationals from a further seven countries - Burundi, Cuba, Laos, Sierra Leone, Togo, Turkmenistan and Venezuela - will face partial travel restrictions. The US president said the list could be revised if "material improvements" were made, while other countries could be added as "threats emerge around the world". Image shows a map of the countries hit by US President Donald Trump's travel ban It is the second time Trump has ordered a ban on travel from certain countries. He signed a similar order in 2017 during his first term in office. The White House said these "common sense restrictions" would "protect Americans from dangerous foreign actors". There are a number of people from affected countries who may still be able to enter the US due to a number of exceptions. The order does not apply to: "Lawful permanent" US residents Their immediate family members who hold immigrant visas US government employees with Special Immigrant Visas Adoptions Dual nationals when the individual is not travelling on a passport from one of the affected countries Afghan nationals holding Special Immigrant Visas Holders of "immigrant visas for ethnic and religious minorities facing persecution in Iran" Foreign nationals travelling with certain non-immigrant visas Athletes, their teams (including coaches and supporting staff), and their immediate family when travelling for major sporting events, such as the men's football World Cup in 2026 and the Summer 2028 Olympics in Los Angeles In addition, the US Secretary of State may grant exemptions to individuals on a "case-by-case" basis, if "the individual would serve a United States national interest". In a video posted to his Truth Social website last week, Trump said the recent attack in Boulder, Colorado "underscored the extreme dangers" posed by foreign nationals who had not been "properly vetted". Twelve people were injured in Colorado on 1 June when a man attacked a group gathering in support of Israeli hostages. The FBI called it a suspected terror attack and said the suspect had used a makeshift flamethrower, Molotov cocktails and other incendiary devices. The man accused of carrying out the attack was identified as an Egyptian national, but Egypt has not been included on the list of banned countries. Trump's latest order, which is likely to face legal challenges, drew a swift response, at home and abroad. Chad retaliated by suspending all visas to US citizens while Somalia promised to work with the US to address security issues. The African Union, which represents all countries on the continent, called on the US to "engage in constructive dialogue with the countries concerned". In the US, Democrats were quick to condemn the move. "This ban, expanded from Trump's Muslim ban in his first term, will only further isolate us on the world stage," Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal wrote on social media. But others support the ban. Congressman Clay Higgins of Louisiana told the BBC that travel to the US was "a privilege, not a right". [/right] [right] https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cz9y72v5yv5o |

FarmTech:Yes |
Kai Kudos to the team. I think Arteta and the board room staff had to analyse their strengt weakness opportunity and time against a big team real Madrid. Curtois was no doubt a strength in the team and they knew scoring direct field goal against him may be hard the reason they practiced more on set pieces and make saka the ploy to get the spot kick, while deccan execute it. The only field goal scor3d by merino, if you look very well, 3 players have a good sight on goal but merino was positioned in a manner that Curtois direct sight to the shot will be blocked. This is pure tactics and execution. I never expected this. Kudos to partey for not loosing too much concentration in the midfield. LS is becoming more confident by the day. We await what tactics arteta will deploy for second leg. I know for sure he will prepare them for the loud noise of Bernabeu and try to defend till last minute. Good thing that utility in camavinga is out of it. |
I beg people help with a substitute chemical with same effect as this please 🙏.

Hezzyluv:A thousand mile journey starts with a few steps. Even if can't be recognised by PC now, with good market and quality feedback they will surely improve. |
TopNotchTrends:BODE GEORGE WROTE My thoughts on this Protest! I'll hope to make it brief. I remember that, while the EndSARS 2020 protest was being planned, the Northern Elders held a meeting and agreed on one common ground- 'the President is our son, we will not go against him or allow anyone to protest against him in the North'. And so, it was like a joke, but no protest was allowed. Check the record and prove me wrong? Those who sponsored billboards and adverts in Abuja and the North, lost their funds. A particular popular Musician who sponsored billboards in Lagos, Abuja and PH, lost everything he sponsored in Abuja. In fact, the owners of the billboards were sanctioned in Abuja. The President was their son and they wouldn't allow any protests against him. Carry your protest to your side if you so wish. It is 2024, and here we go again. We are asking the siting President to give us a report of 60 years' rot in 1 year. And, the South, especially the South West where the President is from, must prove a point now. Would you stand for your son or stand against him? I think that, we would stand with our son too! I think that the whole South should stand for their son also. Has any President done better than him in 1 year of office, in the last forever? Isn't the Nation too tender for any protests right now? Has any protests ended well in the last... forever? Have we had gains or losses from protests? Isn't there a consistent record of hijacks of protests, from forever? Would you invest in a Nation that is prone to protests that leads to anarchy and destruction of the land? Who has accounted for the losses from the EndSARS? I think that we have had a very sensitive economy in recent years. We rolled from costly Boko Haram insurgency to global recession to National recession to COVID and to the effects of wars around the world. This is the reason there is inflation all around the world. Yes, including the Countries you wanna japa to, init? Have you noticed the number of Countries who have had the same economic effects? In fact, for the kind of government in the UK, you must have noticed the number of Prime Ministers who have been changed in the last 14 years. There has been 6 since 2010. A particular one spent only 1 month as PM. It was all because of the economy, not war or sickness or incompetence, but economy. That same inflation is biting the Citizens so hard in all these Nations. UK, USA, Canada, Germany, Ghana, SA, Egypt.... everywhere. Meanwhile, Nigeria is having her 3rd President since 2011, staying his first year in office. I would have expected Nigerian Citizens to have a more critical look at the economy by history rather than sentiments. I would have expected Nigerian Politicians to stand for the good of Nigeria rather than prove the points of hatred from an election loss. Atiku supports the protest fr Dubai, so does Peter Obi from 'not Anambra'. Which one of you actually won the election if it was not Tinubu? And, would any of these 2 men have done better, knowing that they both supported the removal of subsidy on oil as does the sitting President? Which is the reason why we are here now. Things could have been done better sha. That, I agree! But it is still manageable. When HAMAS faced Israel, the whole Nation, and especially the Politicians, stood as one, with their President. He wasn't their fan, but their Nation needed them more than they needed to prove a point. Where are those who will stand for Nigeria? This Protest is, for me, a stand against the welfare and existence of Nigeria. When I looked at the demands of the proposed protest, I saw the request for the release of Nnamdi Kanu. How does this relate to Protest against Bad Governance? Am I missing something here? Are we being introduced to the Sponsors of the protest? How many Nigerians have visited the South East in recent times? I have! Do we have our eyes opened? We should! I still recall his voice from those voice notes on the instruction to burn Lagos during EndSARS Protest, and places were burnt as he instructed. So, the validation of burning Lagos and Nigeria will end bad governance? The jail breaks, the beheading of Police Officers, the burning of LAMATA Buses, the burning of Police Stations and countless more, will end bad governance? This brings me to the issue of patriotism. I think that some Nigerians are fond of hiding the good things of Nigeria and putting the bad foot forward. We spread our dirty linens on the world stage forgetting that all other Nations have dirts too! There's nothing bad in Nigeria that is not in every single developed, developing or underdeveloped Nation. The world scores Nigeria low or badly, because Nigerians tell the world that Nigeria should be so scored! Do you know that there are Nations who refuse to give any information about themselves to the world for anyone to score their economy or people? It's like claiming the 5th amendment. I wonder if a Nigerian expects to be seen differently from how they describe their own Country? (Keep reading these words until you've read it!) We don't need any protests. We don't need to gamble with anarchy that usually starts with a 'peaceful protest'. I am aware of how tough things have been, but a further toughness will not make things easier. I support dialogue. Some of us will not be going anywhere! So, please leave our bed place for us and we will keep working things out. The grass is not greener anywhere else. If it is, go there! I pleade with Nigerians not to use the sitting President as scapegoat for all the bad governments of the past. There was Abacha, there was Babangida, there was Jonathan, there was Buhari, there was Obasanjo, there was AbdulSallam, they are all faulty in some. Why would anyone want to distract or punish Tinubu? May Nigeria succeed!!!! Dr. Bode 'Gbore, wrote this from Abuja on July 26th, 2024 at 0630hours. |
helinues:Are you ready to pay 50% of your income as tax? |
Image123:Hearing the denial part for the first time. I thought it was fear of the unknown. |
Brendaniel: |
steeltrust:As in like 50 years after the crime was committed and the culprit is even tired of life, he will get prosecuted Dey play. No where is fucking perfect. We all live to die another day. Same way you can make it anywhere. System is good or not, just avoid confrontation and pray for safety, if e happen body don go o. |
Gadafii:And violence begets another round of violence. When are you going to think as a human? So many things happen in course of an incident or accident. We should be patient to know the cause and profer necessary settlement. We shouldn't always think we are right everytime. We could slip and it's human. Let's always tow the path of reconciliation in tines of crisis. |
Newlymarried:Normally, that's how it should be. But most of those herders too are some how very hard to confront likewise some of the farmers. An average herder knows that once their animals feeds on another man's crops, they pay for it. In the North especially those border states to Niger and Chad, some of their camels migrate to those place during the dry season to look for fodder and water. In each camp, you have herders with their camels, the camp locates a place where they will roam for food before the raining season comes. The camp has a leader, lawyer also. Once they run into any trouble with their camels, the lawyer and some of their security escort will negotiate the damage they are to pay. Everybody knows this. Once it happens, the concerned fellow reports to the local authorities who in turn invites the herders camp and settlement takes place. Shikena |
enemyofprogress:If saliba is injury free till season end. Arsenal may win it. They lost out last season when he was out injured. |
kawkab:This is the more reason you find fluidity in their play. Just like when more than half of the Spanish football team on pitch are from Barcelona. |
Fryx:Yes, for investigation sake, the first suspect has been eliminated which automatically makes the the Prince that ordered the gun salute now the prime suspect. But this your analogy of a soldier surviving gunshots tother leg is not necessary, how many of them do survive? Have you not heard about one whom bullet was lodged in his head and still survives? Man it varies and luck plays a lot here. |
We dey here |
Lukgaf:Aameen JazakumuLLAAHU khayran May HE make our last days better than what was before it. Aameen |
udemzyudex:You are in haste. You will soon testify to his sagacity. All what's happening currently he predicted it, also gave a timeline for things to turn around. Be patient but don't be corn fused ![]() |
Hello Nairalanders, Is there any Nigerian law that mandates a married woman to change her surname to reflect her Marital Status to a man? And can she by any means choose to retain her fathers name for official purposes after marriage? |
cedricksly:Seriously a very wonderful innovation on the part of the lecturer. This can only work once in Nigeria, then guys will find Solution to how to confuse the lecturer even if they copied each other. |
Xgist:Her time |
khattab02:To good. God change for good the heart and minds of Nigerians also. Aameen. The mind of evil shortcut to success in all Nigerians may God change it for good. Aameen |
