The Nigerian government has announced that it has reached an agreement with the United Arab Emirates (UAE) to resume the issuance of visas to Nigerian passport holders. According to sources, the agreement took effect from July 15th.
The agreement comes after a period of discussion between the two countries on the issue of visa requirements for Nigerian travelers. The Minister of Information and National Orientation, Mohammed Idris, confirmed the development in a briefing at the Presidential Villa in Abuja on Monday.
According to Idris, the agreement allows Nigerian passport holders to obtain visas to travel to the UAE, effective immediately. Details of the agreement will be made public in a statement later today.
This development is expected to boost travel between Nigeria and the UAE, which has been disrupted by visa restrictions in recent months. The agreement is seen as a significant step towards improving bilateral relations between the two countries.
Further details of the agreement will be released in a statement later today, but according to sources, Nigerian passport holders can now apply for visas to travel to the UAE without any restrictions.
