STATE HOUSE PRESS RELEASE

UNITED STATES SUSPENSION OF THE ISSUANCE OF IMMIGRANT VISAS TO NIGERIANS

On 31st January 2020, the United States (U.S) Department of Homeland Security (DHS) announced temporary travel restrictions on six (6) countries including Nigeria.

For Nigeria, the restriction is the suspension of the issuance of “immigrant visas” to Nigerian passport holders only. This suspension shall come into effect on 21st February 2020. The suspension does not apply to other U.S visas such as those for official, business, tourism and student travel.

The DHS states the suspension of “immigrant visas” became necessary following a review and update of the methodology (performance metrics) adopted by the U.S Government to assess compliance of certain security criteria by foreign governments. This resulted in certain enhancements on how information is shared between Nigeria and the U.S.

Nigeria remains committed to maintaining productive relations with the United States and its international allies especially on matters of global security. Accordingly, President Muhammadu Buhari has established a committee, to be chaired by the Hon. Minister of Interior, to study and address the updated U.S. requirements. The committee will work with the U.S Government, INTERPOL and other stakeholders to ensure all updates are properly implemented.

Nobody will tell US to reverse the policy by the time they start to feel the economic impacts..

We have the population on our side..

Modified: To those who are quoting me, sebi those migrants that they are about to stop dont pay for visa as Usa to Nigeria is visa free, flight ticket free and they always travel to Usa empty handed

The ban was was due to illegal immigrants that came in through B1 B2 visa

Still vomiting trash.US no send Nigeria.Femi Adeshina should better apologise quickly to the US over his sense- less "Who made America the world police?  statement because he may not even be qualify for diplomatic passport.

Lol

Damnnnnn niggarrr

Who gives a fuckkk about America!

Real niggarrrz don't even think of going to America
Real niggarrrz go to dope countries like Qatar, Bahrain, Oman not some overrated dogg shitt like America
When it comes to tourism, education and business just enter those dope Arab nation

Especially when it comes to making dope money..just go to Bahrain or Oman and do your dope shitt and your money start growing like grass.
I was shocked last year to receive 700 omani rial from a client only for me to get to the bank and it was almost seven hundred and twenty thousand naira.

The country USA belongs to them and they have a right to who comes in or not.Lets blame our inept leadership.

Mtcheeww.. Always reacting. Only thing the useless administration is good at..

Had it been the ban came from Obama, they will be claiming that it is because they rejected GAY IMPOSITION... A president that will not follow court orders, where book haram members are released on the notion that they have been rehabilitated, where Christians are killed without the repercussion... At least umu efi now know that they are messing up

Ayemi Temi Bami
Oluwa Wetin dey Occur nah....

meanwhile: Rank your business website
to Google page 1 with real results.

Sit down and develop your own country amurikkka no be heaven una no go hear, unpatriotic Nigerians always running to and fro even tiny ghana go soon deport una soon with the way Nigerians are flooding the place una yansh no dey stay one place na why everybody don see us finish

End extremist treatment in Nigeria, give Nigeria proper census, data identity and the United States will lift the ban.

I swear buhari and his Muppet are dunce. Imagine releasing this sorry of a statement when someone just openly rejected your country.

Hi.

Today I want to talk to you about something that you know.
Forget it, just contact me for your Graphic Designs.

My number is just below this.

RUBBISH...

Only if you dont take time to read and understand d restriction properly. It is just restrictions on some kinda visa policy...visa types are alot and can pass easily like X student visa e.t.c but u know what?! a true saying goes *if you want to hide something from a typical African,put it in a book*...Africans don't like to read

Media just hyping this shit.

Trump second tenure go red for some countries ooo ....

Always reacting like reactants.

I give Trump no more than 2 months to revise his stance. If you know, you know.

Shithole country!

You know nada

This is a Nation that does not joke or play politics with it's National security. Buhari went to Egypt and announced everybody is welcomed to Nigeria.
This is a red flag especially as there won't be proper documentation of these migrants, and getting Nigerian international passport is like buying pure water, so terrorists can easily gain entry into the USA via Nigeria.

Also considering the government's ineptude, incompetent, insincere and complacent mode of handling security issues, especially the treating of terrorists to buffet and releasing them to continue unleashing terror, so tactically and technically, Nigeria may be serving as a breeding ground for terrorists, to be sent to America.

American President is not a DULLARD like Nigerian president.

No way out .
No plans
No directions.

America does not know me, they do not know you, all they know are the following:
President - Terrorist in Chief
COAS (Buratai) - Corrupt terrorist.
Malami (Justice Minister) - Terrorist
El-Rufai - Terrorist (Body Bag Governor)
Finance Minister - Terrorist (God created Fulani to value cows more than Humans) etc.
Why will they not Ban us?

Our country is practically grounded. The problem of Insecurity we are lamenting about is replicated and even worse in other sectors of our economy. If our US & Chinese embassy website still has GEJ as President then you should know that our country has stopped working since May 29 2015.

Lool

If atiku doesn't react, they won't react
