The United States Government on Monday disclosed that it had taken steps to impose visa restrictions on specific individuals in Nigeria for undermining the democratic process during Nigeriaโ€™s 2023 general elections.

This was made known in a statement by the Secretary of State, Anthony Blinken, on Monday, published on the website of the US government.

โ€œToday, I am announcing that we have taken steps to impose visa restrictions on specific individuals in Nigeria for undermining the democratic process during Nigeriaโ€™s 2023 elections cycle.โ€

While noting that, โ€œthe United States is committed to supporting and advancing democracy in Nigeria and around the world,โ€ Blinken added that the visa restrictions โ€œare specific to certain individuals and are not directed at the Nigerian people or the government of Nigeria as a whole.โ€

Blinken added, โ€œUnder Section 212(a)(3)C) of the Immigration and Nationality Act, these individuals will be subject to restrictions on visas to the United States under a policy covering those believed to be responsible for, or complicit in, undermining democracy.โ€

However, as of the time of filing this report, no name of any individual has been published.

โ€œThese individuals have been involved in intimidation of voters through threats and physical violence, the manipulation of vote results, and other activity that undermines Nigeriaโ€™s democratic process.โ€


The US government disclosed the decision to take steps to impose visa restrictions reflects the continued commitment of the United States to support Nigerian aspirations to strengthen democracy and the rule of law.
