Samson FolarinA statement by the Embassy of the United States of America in Nigeria denying a report that it had stopped issuing student visa to Nigerians has drawn criticisms on social media. Be advised, reports of Student Visa ban for Nigerians is false. While a few Nigerians commended the embassy for debunking the report, majority of those who responded used the opportunity to narrate their experiences of visa denial. A user @Paul2ng said an outright ban of student visa would be better. Student visa or Not.
