BusinessNG Editorial Focus | July 16, 2025

Title: Visa Policy Shift: A Diplomatic Wake-Up Call

The recent U.S. and UAE visa restrictions on Nigerians are more than administrative actions—they are a clear signal of eroding trust in Nigeria’s systems. The U.S. now limits non-immigrant visas for Nigerians to single-entry, three-month validity, citing high overstay rates and poor identity verification. While the Tinubu administration says discussions are ongoing, this must trigger deeper reforms. Nigeria must fix its identity management, strengthen consular relations, and hold reciprocal visa talks. Our foreign policy must shift from reactive diplomacy to assertive, reform-led engagement. Until then, Nigerians will continue to face travel roadblocks.
