Contrary to claims made by the Nigerian government, the United Arab Emirates (UAE) has denied lifting the year-long visa ban on Nigerian travellers.
An official from the UAE stated that there have been no changes to the travel status between the two countries.
Last October, the UAE announced that it would no longer issue visas to citizens from Nigeria and 19 other African nations, without providing further details.
Flights between the UAE and Nigeria were also suspended after Dubai’s Emirates airline faced difficulties accessing and repatriating funds amounting to $85 million in Nigeria.

Nigerian government officials have stated that more time is needed to finalize the agreement details.
Dubai is a popular destination for Nigerian tourists and real estate investors, with Nigerians previously ranking among Dubai’s largest foreign real estate investors.
