Former Nigerian Minister, Mohammed, has shed light on why the United States imposed a partial travel ban on Nigerian citizens. According to him, the decision stems from concerns over immigration policies, security issues, and compliance with visa regulations.

Mohammed explained that the partial ban does not affect all Nigerians but targets specific groups whose travel documentation or purposes do not fully meet US entry requirements. He emphasized that the move is meant to encourage proper documentation and adherence to international travel protocols.

The ex-minister urged Nigerians to ensure their passports, visas, and other travel documents are in order to avoid inconveniences. He also called on the government to engage in diplomatic discussions to clarify and possibly resolve the issues leading to the ban.

Citizens and travel agencies have reacted to the ban, noting the importance of complying with international rules while also advocating for dialogue between Nigeria and the US to ease restrictions and maintain smooth travel relations.
