I know! But this particular website wasn't having this restriction before now..which means it has something to do with the recent ban.

Dey deceive yourself.If you like kill off half your population, America doesn't give a damn.South Africa's murder rate is four times that of Nigeria yet they have never been considered for a visa restriction.They need to know the sort of persons who wants to reside in their country.What the US wants is for Nigeria to have a reliable and functioning database to track people's criminal records.SA has that,we don't.

The reason is clearly stated there why you couldn't access the site at that point in time and you jumped to conclusion on what you believe.

What if you access the site by tomorrow and you have access what will you now tell us??

Due at least in part to the online activities of Nigeria's ever busy advance fee fraud practitioners, Nigerian IP addresses have been banned for many years by numerous websites, ranging from Auto Trader, to Yahoo News video feeds, to several aviation themed forums, and even including Google Earth, whose crystal-clear, high resolution street-level images of Nigerian cities and towns, are selectively replaced by a blurry green and brown screen, for all viewers logging in from Nigerian IP addresses that are so often now automatically consigned to the Internet's ghetto.

Similarly, anyone who resides in the EU or USA, and utilizes PayPal for online transactions, should know that their PayPal account will be closed and deleted, if they EVER try and log into their PayPal account while on a visit to Nigeria. If PayPal finds you GUILTY of having attempted to access their system from Nigerian soil, your name will be BLACKLISTED for the rest of all time, or until hell freezes over, whichever comes later, during which time your every application to reopen a PayPal account, will be summarily DENIED with extreme prejudice. Anyone who wishes to test this policy will find out that every foregoing word typed in this paragraph, is 100% true.

The upshot is that browsing the internet while using a Nigerian IP address is , analogous to traveling beyond Africa with a Nigerian passport in that, the number of destinations accessible is drastically and purposefully curtailed, for all whose foreheads are marked with the scarlet writing of Nigerian IP addresses, and Nigerian passports.

My advice therefore, to all Pellow Kwantirimen of the Nigerian persuasion, would be to seek Ghanaian citizenship as a matter of paramount priority, before Ghanaian authorities notice the rush of new citizenship applications from Nigeria, and then apply restrictions to curtail the hordes. As a proud Ghanaian citizen, former Nigerians can travel the world as welcome ambassadors of Africa, with all rights and privileges implied.

Your caption gave you the reasons why you were blocked, but your ignorant and unpatriotic mentality linked it to Visa ban.

How sad.

how will Nigeria have a reliable and functioning database to track people's criminal records when the president is giving visa free for all terrorists in the world to come into Nigeria.

While some sites do restrict people living outside us from visiting them or using their service, but OP is a complete ediot.


A spam robot blocked his ip cos he has probably been spamming the site clicks, the ediot linked it to visa ban.
