Carter Efe, widely regarded as one of Africa's biggest streamers, also confirmed Kai Cenat's intervention during his own livestream.
According to Carter, Kai Cenat had gone as far as drafting a formal letter to support his visa application.
"Kai Cenat sent me an exclusive letter to show them at the embassy, but Nigeria disappointed me," he said, pointing his frustration at the bureaucratic process rather than at Cenat.
