 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.

BRAZIL’S FORMER PRESIDENT JAIR BOLSONARO UNDERGOES DOUBLE HERNIA SURGERY. (PHOTO).



Brazil’s former President Jair Bolsonaro undergoes double hernia surgery

  Former Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro underwent double hernia surgery on Thursday at a hospital in Brasilia, with doctors saying the procedure lasted about three and a half hours and was completed without complications. Medical staff at DF Star Hospital said Bolsonaro will remain under postoperative care, including pain management, physical therapy, and measures to prevent blood clots. He has been hospitalized since Wednesday and was allowed to leave prison temporarily after federal police doctors determined the surgery was medically necessary. Bolsonaro has complained of ongoing pain from the condition and has undergone multiple surgeries in recent years stemming from a 2018 stabbing attack during a campaign rally.

Bolsonaro is currently serving a 27-year prison sentence following his conviction for attempting to overthrow Brazil’s democratic system after his 2022 election defeat. Justice Alexandre de Moraes authorized the surgery but rejected Bolsonaro’s request for house arrest once he is discharged. Bolsonaro is held at federal police headquarters in Brasilia, where authorities say he is kept isolated from other inmates in a small room equipped with basic amenities. He is permitted unrestricted access to doctors and lawyers, while other visitors require Supreme Court approval. His wife, Michelle Bolsonaro, is accompanying him in the hospital, and his sons were authorized to visit. Ahead of the surgery, Bolsonaro’s eldest son, Senator Flávio Bolsonaro, said his father had formally endorsed him as the Liberal Party’s presidential candidate for next year’s election. Bolsonaro and several allies were convicted of charges that included leading an armed criminal organization and attempting to violently abolish the rule of law, with the court finding the plot involved plans targeting President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, Vice President Geraldo Alckmin, and Justice de Moraes. Bolsonaro has denied all wrongdoing.
