Bad News As Why Turkey Removes Nigeria From List Of Countries Eligible For Turkish E-Visa (Details below)
The Republic of Turkey has barred Nigerian visa applicants from accessing the e-visa provisions but advised them to apply via any Turkish Consulate.
According to a report by Leadership on Thursday, July 7, prospective applicants experienced the sudden change without prior notice or communication from the Turkish Mission in Nigeria.
Edujandon.com gathered that the decision was taken following the incessant terrorist attacks in Nigeria and the high-security alert that followed the attacks on the Kuje Custodial Center in Abuja on Tuesday, July 5.
An applicant affected by the development, in a chat with the newspaper, said:
“Just putting this out there. Someone out there with a Schengen /UK/US visa might be booking a ticket to Turkey right now thinking they will apply for a visa electronically. DONOT.
“Turkey decided to delist Nigerians from the e-visa list yesterday evening. With no prior warning/ communication. They clearly don’t rate us. Anyway all Nigerians have to apply via the consulate wherever they are.”
Other countries warned nationals
Some members of the diplomatic community such as the United States, United Kingdom, and Canada have warned their citizens against travelling to many parts of Nigeria even in some parts of Abuja, the nation’s capital over security threats.
