RETURN HOME, SHEHU SANI ADVISES NIGERIANS WITH REVOKED US VISAS. (PHOTO).


 Return Home, Shehu Sani Advises Nigerians With Revoked US Visas


Former Kaduna Central Senator, Shehu Sani, has urged Nigerians and other Africans affected by the recent mass visa revocation in the United States to return home promptly to avoid possible arrest by US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).


In a post shared on his X (Twitter) account on Monday, Sani reminded Africans living abroad that no matter how long they remain in foreign lands, those countries will never truly be their home.


He wrote:

“Nigerians and other thousands of Africans whose visas were recently revoked by President Trump should hasten to leave the country and return home before they get arrested by ICE. No matter how long you live in the comfort of your adopted home, you will someday be reminded that it’s not your father’s house.”


Sani’s remarks follow reports that the US State Department has revoked more than 80,000 visas since January 2025 under President Donald Trump’s administration, over twice the number withdrawn the previous year.


According to a report released last Thursday, the revoked visas include 16,000 linked to driving under the influence, 12,000 for assault, and 8,000 student visas. Other reasons cited for the revocations include terrorism support, criminal activity, public safety concerns, visa overstays, and direct links to terrorism.


Although the US government did not disclose the nationalities of those affected, the State Department had previously revealed in August that more than 6,000 student visas were canceled for overstays and legal violations, including a few cases tied to alleged terrorism support.


In recent months, the US has also introduced stricter visa regulations. In July, the US Embassy instructed applicants for F, M, and J non-immigrant visas to make their social media accounts public as part of new background screening measures. That same month, a policy change affecting Nigerian applicants reduced the validity period for several visa categories.
