Critics Slam NDLEA’s New Visa Rule as a Step Backward for Women’s Rights
The National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) has introduced a new visa requirement, stirring controversy across the country. Under the updated regulations, married women must now provide a letter of approval from their husbands to be cleared for travel.

This requirement, part of NDLEA’s latest visa process updates, has sparked debate about gender equality and personal freedom. Critics argue that the policy reflects outdated attitudes towards women’s independence and could restrict their ability to travel without spousal consent.
Along with the letter, married women are also required to submit a passport photograph as part of the application process. This move has drawn widespread backlash from rights advocates who are calling for a review of the rule.
