Hakeem Balogun, the ChargĂ© d’affaires of the Embassy of Nigeria in Washington, says different reasons are responsible for the extreme vetting Nigerians face during entry into the US.
Mr. Balogun, in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria in Washington, added that the President Donald Trump’s travel ban did not affect Nigerians.

Hameed Ibrahim Ali (retd), as the agency is under the searchlight of the Senate, because of the controversial policy on the  payment of import duties on old vehicles on Nigerian roads. By the same token, the Senate and its President, Bukola Saraki  are in the eye of the storm for alleged criminality. For purposes of reiteration, the import of the NCS order is that an average Nigerian driving his car on the road can be stopped and have his car impounded if it is discovered that the duty paid to the NCS was illegally discounted or is fake. It is the matter of fake documentation that has now been insinuated into the face-off between Ali and the Senate, with an allegation that the Senate and/or Saraki  had been caught in the web, hence the showdown.
