Former lawmaker and representative of the Kaduna Central Senatorial District, Shehu Sani, has urged African leaders to remain at home and rebuild their countries.
Sani made the call on Wednesday in a post on his verified X handle, following the recent visa ban imposed by the United States Government on some African countries.
DAILY POST reports that United States President Donald Trump has signed a new proclamation further restricting the entry of foreign nationals into the country, adding 15 more nations to the list facing partial travel limitations.
Reacting, the former lawmaker said, “They said the first visa ban focused on those who engage in acts of religious persecution, and many jubilated on social media. The second visa restriction is for everyone and Nigeria is listed among 23 others.
“The recent list has no Arab countries but mostly Black Africans and Caribbeans even though safety and security was used as the basis.
“The message is very clear. Third World migrants are not welcomed. Stay back and build your country or deal with your problems.”
