Interior Minister: Nigeria To End Visa Discrimination With Reciprocal.

Interior Minister: Nigeria To End Visa Discrimination With Reciprocal.
Nigeria to Implement Reciprocity Policy in Visa Issuance, Says Interior Minister.

Nigeria will adopt a reciprocity policy for issuing visas to foreigners entering the country, as stated by Minister of Interior Olabunmi Tunji-Ojo.

The minister announced this at the Business Day Conference titled “Nigeria Forward: Catalyzing Funding for High Impact Social Projects.”

Under this policy, the fees for Nigerian visas will mirror the charges imposed on Nigerians by foreign countries, ensuring fair treatment.

Minister Tunji-Ojo emphasized that the era of discrimination against Nigerians in visa issuance was ending, and the government would implement a give-and-take approach.

He explained that any country that does not grant visa-on-arrival to Nigerians will not receive the same privilege in Nigeria.

Minister Tunji-Ojo also revealed plans for increased border surveillance to enhance safety by monitoring the inflow and outflow of people.
