U.S Finalizes $20,000 Visa Bond Policy Affecting Nigeria and 49 Other Nations The United States government has officially formalized its visa bond policy, making it a permanent measure that could require travelers from 50 designated countries, including Nigeria, to pay a refundable bond of up to $20,000 before receiving certain visas. First introduced as a pilot scheme in 2025, the policy targets applicants seeking B1 and B2 visas, which are designated for business and tourism. According to the U.S. Department of State, the initiative is designed to bolster compliance with local immigration laws and drastically reduce visa overstay rates. How the Visa Bond Policy Works Under the permanent guidelines, U.S. consular officers have the discretion to instruct eligible applicants to post a bond as a prerequisite for visa issuance.

Last week sunday,Catholics all round the world,celebrated the ''Corpus cristi'',a day they proclaim Jesus Christ as king.After the usual sunday service,the members of each branch of a Catholic church will walk round their environment with the holy sacrament and the members of the church will be singing and praying.Now on my way back home,within the estate where i stay in Ikeja,i saw a procession that is observing the corpus cristi and they were having problems with the security men in the estate.The estate security men,refused them from entering the estate,telling them this is a private estate,and there was an un-usual holdup at the estate third entrance.The security men said they don't have permission to enter the estate,so the procession forced their way in.So yesterday friday,i saw one of security men that was on duty that day they had the problem with the procession and he said behind camera's that ''When they approached the estate gate,the reverend father told them that they want to go through the estate and they told them that,they can't enter the estate and it is a breach of security to allow so many people at once because they have a censor they use in checking cars or persons entering the estate and they will disturb the estate with their loud noise of singing and dancing.Immediately some members of the church,who claimed they are also residence of the estate,opened the estate gate by force and made sure the procession past through the estate''.I can't be a called a bias judge in case because i am also a catholic but i would have loved for the sake of peace,for the church procession to turn back,when they told them they can't enter the estate.What if the security men decide to fight back the church members that forcefully opened the gate?,what would have been the out come of the Corpus cristi ''RIOT''?.What do you think?.More photos below.
