Reactions as US cancels Nigerian students' visas
@dan_agabi
Can you imagine. Is it not better to be on US prison than to come and school I'm Nigeria where they will use ASUU strike to finish you? Not only that, Fulani jihadists can decide to kidnap you and demand millions in ransom, and if you can't afford, you are gone.
@NasirPlatinum
How can someone studying in US can manage to stay in BUK, ABU, ATBU, NSUKKA and others?
They can't.
@KeyeMukaila
Good advice. Parents should encourage their wards to come home and make themselves more useful.
@robert_nnaemeka
This is insensitivity. Not everything should be joked with, at least not a supposed elderly man like you.
@AdeyemiAdebawo
I would rather beg trump to stay in refugee calm than coming back to hopelessness country.
@yahayaAbduBell1
I believe sir if you take a gentle scroll through your comments section, you will begin to understand how hopeless the situation in Nigeria is, and how mentally depressing it is to be a youth in Nigeria.
@FacultyMark
They better hide there, it's million times better for them over there than here.
@dardashinobi
you say it so easily sir, which institution here will admit them, our university system is not that digital o.
@JonesLee5050
Easy for you to say, as long as your child is not among those affected. Come back home? They left to the USA because they have lost all hope for this country, you asking them to return home to hopelessness & suffering? You've lost touch with the realities of ordinary Nigerians
