“The latest visa requirement for Nigerian applicants follows a raft of stiff migration policies by the Donald Trump presidency since January, here is a list of those that will be adversely affected”
The United States Department of State has mandated that every Nigerian visa applicant provide a five-year social media history as part of the requirements to be considered eligible to be on the United States’ soil.
In an X update on Monday, the US Mission in Nigeria said applicants who fail to disclose their five-year social media history risk visa denial.
“Visa applicants are required to list all social media usernames or handles of every platform they have used from the last 5 years on the DS-160 visa application form.
“Applicants certify that the information in their visa application is true and correct before they sign and submit.
“Omitting social media information could lead to visa denial and ineligibility for future visas,” the statement read.
