Following the recent decision of the United States government to request for social media profiles of Nigerians travelling overseas, the Nigerian government has decided to reciprocate in kind.
The US said visa applicants must include usernames, handles, email addresses, and phone numbers used across all social media from five years before or have their visa applications declined.
“So, on things of this nature, the best we can do is to carry out reciprocal action," said Nigeria’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs spokesman, Kimiebi Ebienfa. "Some people from the US might want to apply for a visa, and we will adopt the same measures.
‘’I think that’s what the government might do because anything visa is reciprocal. What you are mandating our nationals to do, we will also mandate your citizens applying for our visa to do,’’ he said.
