The US Ambassador to Nigeria, Mary Leonard, said the visa ban could be resolved between the two countries if the Nigerian government meets certain conditions.

Ngige said the inclusion of Nigeria in the list of countries under the US travel ban was a shock to the country. “They were all part of the Nigerian residents in the US and it came to us as a rude shock when the US government banned Nigerians and put us in the list of those countries whose residency status have been cancelled.”

So they had to ban us just to force us to give them information? Seriously? Is it by force to share our information with the USA?
