Very misleading topic and the reading comprehension of a lot of people on this thread is disheartening. It is " the American center" in the Embassy that is closed, not the whole consulate or the embassy. This does not affect visa issuance and other consulate activities not involving the American center.
America Centers are cultural /research centers that are part of the embassy. That's why they apologized to their patrons(members). Are visa applicants patrons of US embassy, Consulate, or American Center.? Lalasticlala, Justwise or other mods should please correct this so as not to mislead people.

Wey the win naa? I no see any win for China for here o.

US is hurting too.

The current trade war benefits no one on either side. Have you checked the US stock market lately?

This December was the worst for the US stock market for the past 10 years. Most Americans 401k values and increase worth a whole year had been lost in the past few weeks over the economy uncertainty.

Many economists in the US believe that, the US is now in a bear market.

Trump is street smart but not intelligent, he likes to bully and believes that he can endure more than the other person and as a result he try to bully his way through everything.

At the end of the whole day, he does not care for anyone, even for America citizens, he care only for his ego.

He just signed an executive order canceling automatic pay rise for all federal workers out of spite or something that no one knows.

The guys lies and he is deceitful. You can’t really truest him to hold his own end of the bargain. He had agreed to signed a bipartisan budget bill that would have prevented the shutdown before it started, but he became angry because a few conservatives radio hosts mocked and ridiculed him for ‘giving in’ hence he backed out of his agreement.

The border wall along souther Mexico is one of the stupidest idea. Much of the boundaries between US and Mexico have a wall. The Southern border is a hash uninhabitable terrain and many migrated that have attempted crossing through it have died as a result of the hash conditions and that area is under smart border securities with alarms, sensors and air patrols.

It does not make any sense logically or economically to fence the southern border, but because a radio host who is female hurts Trump’s feelings, he shutdown the government making hundreds of federal workers work without pay or out furloughed and causing them irreparable damage.

The guy rule by anger, short impulses; he believes he knows economy more than the Fed Chairman and cursing the guy out; he knows defense more than four star generals, refusing their military advices; he knows the law more than seasoned federal Prosecutors and Judges and blast all of them...I can go on and on.

If you have a leader that thinks he knows more than the whole country and does not take advice, then that country is bound to suffer, just like many including those who voted for him are suffering now in the US.

Under Trump, America is already a shutted dead and buried country. Nigeria should wake up and develop on their own and forget about dullards called dollars. One should understand that China has overtaken the economic world leadership development and the only thing that remains for U S is selling arms and ammunitions to world insurgencies.

Thousands of Nigerians will miss their visa appointments as the United States, US embassy in Nigeria, located in Abuja and its consulate in Lagos have shutdown indefinitely.

This implies that persons who have applied for tourist, study, business visas, immigrant visas or any other travel document will have to cancel their plans.

The US embassy in Nigeria said in a Facebook post that the development was caused by the government shutdown in the US.

The statement read,

“Due to the current US government shutdown, the American centres located in the embassy, Abuja and Consulate-General, Lagos are unfortunately closed. They will re-open once the US government shutdown is resolved. Sorry for any inconvenience to our valued patrons.”

The executive arm of government led by President Donald Trump and the legislative arm have been at loggerheads for nearly two months over Trump’s attempt to build a wall along the Mexican border.

Building a wall was one of Trump’s major campaign promises as part of efforts to curb illegal migration and crime.

He had boasted during his campaign that the Mexican government would pay for the wall.

However, with the refusal of the Mexican government to fund the wall, the President approached the US legislative, asking the bi-cameral institution to provide $5bn which would be used in funding the wall.

The Congress, however, rejected Trump’s proposal.

On December 11, Trump held a televised meeting with Speaker-designee, Nancy Pelosi, and Senate Minority Leader, Chuck Schumer, in which he asked them to support $5bn in funding for the border wall.

They refused and Trump said:

“I am proud to shut down the government for border security … I will be the one to shut the government down. I’m not going to blame you for it … I will take the mantle. I will be the one to shut it down.”

Three days later, Politico reported that Trump was willing to sign a bill that delayed a government shutdown into 2019 and the new Congress.

On December 19, the Senate unanimously passed a continuing resolution, the Further Additional Continuing Appropriations Act, 2019, lasting until February 8, 2019.

All the ex US president has been preserving every citizen of the states likewise citizens of other countries in the states, you Nigerian folks should stop hailing Trump.

Many of my American friends aren't happy with his government.

Governance is all about he interest of the majority. It's obvious that your stance and your friends' are in the minority side. Seeing that Trump won the election without the approval of your likes.


You cannot be a reasonable leader and allow someone to plunder your country. Something that is greatly missing in Nigeria. Where Nigeriens, Camerroonians and Chadians invade Nigeria territories. Countries that ought to be at our whims.

Trump did not win because majority of Americans voted for him in fact about 3M people voted for Hillary than Trump.

That's not why there is a stand off.the whole US is for stricter immigration control however he is asking for more eye to build and complete the wall from Congress and the only reason they agreed to the wall in the 1st place was he claimed Mexico was going to pay for the wall..it's obvious you don't know. Plz ask those who live in the US 4 making assumptions this has nothing to do with immigration he wants the US public5to pay for the wall. This is like you and me who pay taxes that is if you and I live in the west.
PS.I just heard from a reliable source it's not the whole embassy that is shut down just the cultural centre. So people should relax.

You speak from one side of the Mouth!
Government being shut down does not mean people are not paid!

You can't have people rushing into a Country in the name of immigrants or Caravans...

Do you know there are United States nationals without jobs!

My brother Everyone should fix his/her Country!

Please do some research before quoting me

And who told you the wall is the solution to illegal immigration in US ,get your story straight ,
how about people that come in through flight and over stayed there Visa
people who come in through ships. Will the wall stop them

United states nationals without jobs some of them are just lazy and depend on social security and government assistance, they refuse to do ordinary jobs that illegal immigrants will gladly do to survive.

Hopefully you care to know that some of them are drug addicts and got criminal records on there name so they are not employable

Happy new year

Good point and analysis
What is the percentage of the real American you talking about, are you talking about is base in the Republican party, hope you know is approval ratings is only around 40percent
Economy booming but dow and shares closed at worst in a decade in 2018
Irregularities in security checked with 23 school shootings in 2018 and 307 mass shooting in 2018 that leads to over 10k killed that is really great job in security
Job at the highest because of the H1 visas that were not approved and no one in the country want the job ,hotel cleaning, farming and welding
Salaries are increased wish you are in the system to understand big tax cut for CEO and 25 cent or 50 cent pay raise for common worker
And hope you know that some companies layoff staff and increased the pay of the remaining staff
He did well in some areas and deserve to get credit for it
Prison reform
Farm bill
Appointed of supreme justice
And many more
But dividing the country is one of is greatest achievement
GOD BLESS THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA

Of course he won and exactly be design of the founding fathers of the country and constitution, the Electoral College. It is a Republic, not mob rules of New York and California. Democrats already allow illegal immigrants to vote in elections. They would let people in China and Nigeria to vote if they could.
