On Monday March 6th, Senior Special Assistant to President Buhari on
Diaspora matters, Abike Dabiri-Erewa, released a statement advising
Nigerians who do not have any important thing to do in the US not to
travel there as she has received reports of some Nigerians being denied
entry by some US Immigration officers.
Her advise was later countered by the Minister of Foreign Affairs,
Geoffrey Onyeama who at a press briefing in Abuja, said there was no
truth in reports that some Nigerians are being denied entry into the US
due to the new US immigration policy.
