Citizens from Eritrea, Myanmar and Kyrgyzstan, won’t also be allowed to apply for visas to immigrate to America under the policy.
The Trump administration has taken this decision to tighten security for countries, that don’t comply with the U.S. minimum security standards or cooperate to prevent illegal immigration.
Sudan and Tanzania will be barred from participating in the diversity visa lottery, which randomly awards green cards to 50,000 immigrants annually.
The new restrictions take effect on February 21 and will apply only to new visa applications.
Immigrants, who were issued valid visas before that date, will still be able to move to the U.S.

Oh dear, Trump is not smiling at all.
ReplyDeleteChaaai!
Like Stella will say
ReplyDeletee go be ✌
This doesnt come to me as a shock.
ReplyDeleteWhen the foolish set of humans started that protest in Abuja voicing solidarity with Iran, even ripping the US flag apart & setting it ablaze, i knew Nigeria will get punished for that somehow.
Trump has always been very blunt and a zero tolerance mindset.
Pls say something else, did other countries affected committed same solidarity crime?
DeleteAproko it may have concluded the matter
DeleteThat being said it is good that the leadership here have been told indirectly what US truly thinks of its security level
That could have been the last straw @macb is right
DeleteYou think foreign countries dont take note!
ReplyDeleteYes! Andrew no fit "check out" again. Na here we go dey, me & una!
ReplyDeleteMy beloved peaceful great reputation country should be on high alert for these born 419ers coming through our nation to get to America.
ReplyDeleteWhen God is ready for me, he will mk my life like d Red Sea! Path it and allow me move.
ReplyDeleteIf you talk how these northerners are destroying Nigeria, one idiot here will start causing his family. I hope all the northern apologists were shamed by their brother that took his four wives to the House of Reps bragging how he is a strong man with 27 children and counting.
ReplyDeleteHow low these folks IQ! When will they know it's brain power over physical muscles.
Apt 👌🏽
DeleteEven the k1 Visa? 😡😡😡
ReplyDeleteHmnnn I've been confused since I read the update yesterday night.
ReplyDeleteIt is well even in the well. I no go bother apply for visiting visa again. they wont be making the millions that make from Nigerians again. Which other country person fit migrate to sef?
ReplyDeleteI have been down since I heard this news
ReplyDeleteWell. Initially they had some countries in mind but I am sure Nigeria was added without missing any beat. It serves us right.
ReplyDeleteWhen people will not do the right thing they right way. How can you decide to stay permanently in another country without proper papers?
Now all those people that are filing for their families under the immigrant visas are highly affected. They shouldn’t just waste their funds.
Parents, partners, spouses, other family members aside from this are affected.
However it does not affect tourist visas. But that does not mean that they will not clamp heavily on visa refusals this period till Trump stomps out.
Those that already have their immigrant visas issued are safe to go ahead. Others are just wasting their time, at least for now.
Not to talk of those idiots in Abuja that were protesting in solidarity to what nonsense again?
The government I am not sure came out to condemn their acts of foolishness.
If you do anyhow, Trump will show you anyhow. The anyhow has finally come.
Thank you Shyla. This is what happens when people will not migrate legally. Now those who had the chance to migrate for genuine reasons like joining their spouse or their family are affected. I remember vividly the chronicles/series of that Nigerian lady that was proudly celebrating illegal immigration to the US. I cannot recall the exact title of the posts. Those of us that spoke against it then were chastised by some BVs. People think USCIS is not aware of these illegal immigration tactics that Nigerians employ.
Deleteillegal immigrants are going to increase in numbers came there are no options to immigrate legally, Trump is dumb instead of him to stop the tourist visas, he is stopping immigrant visa
ReplyDeleterate at which people are going to overstay their visas through the non immigrants visas would increase cs he has blocked the green card route
ReplyDeleteWhen they stay illegally ,they get caught and they get deported who is fooling who ? Staying in a country illegally is stupidity.
Deletetrump is daft, illegal immigrants are going to increase in numbers minutes man
ReplyDeleteTrump is daft really? For protecting the security of his country wooow....anyway it is their effing country so they can effing do what they please with their visa....and decide who to let in...na their country, their choice...live with it...
DeleteTrump daft? So you didn't hear that they have been stamping no adjustment of status on people's passport before you enter us. So it means even if you overstay, you are stuck for life and the only option. Is to leave by yourself in which you can never come back for overstaying.
DeleteI won't even bother myself applying so no one chops my visa fees. My 5yr UK visa is there. What am I looking for in US. Plenty countries to visit in Europe, Dubai is also there.
ReplyDeleteI get people for Canada when I want to have my 2nd baby. First baby already has U.S. passport.
why are they still refusing visas when they are still going to include no adjustment of status to it, they should remove their embassy from Nigeria cs they can't be exploiting us through non immigrant visas after banning green card routes
ReplyDeleteWaytin we go do na?
