Seychelles has implemented a ban on Nigerian passport holders applying for short-term visa or holiday purposes. “Yes, but no further information is available at this time,” the border security stated, leaving Nigerian passport holders and travel enthusiasts puzzled by the decision. Back in December 2022, Nigeria and Seychelles signed an agreement to facilitate direct flights between the two countries. The recent visa ban has sparked mixed reactions from social media users, with many expressing their frustration over the increasing number of foreign bans imposed on Nigerian passport holders. Seychelles’ decision to bar Nigerian passport holders from obtaining short-term visas has certainly raised eyebrows and left many questioning the motives behind this sudden change.
