  1. God bless Dubai ,all stupid people that created problem in Nigeria and send there children to Dubai no way for u ….BT Dubai Nigeria no get rules even u ve a child of 5 years years bring him …shame on u Nigeria

  2. @ Silas you are right,and not just discrimination but,partiality,sentiment and been bias. But come think of it,there we be a cogent reasons behind such a drastic decision. Let’s change our attitude and characters as well,we should stop disgrace our own great and dear country Nigeria.

  3. This is rather unfortunate as I have been waiting to see if the Nigerian Government will come up with a response to this policy which in all respects is a discrimination on Nigerians. Fair enough, they have a duty to protect their citizens but at the same time a decision like this that have far reaching consequences for millions of Nigerians should not be made without some form of consultation with the Nigerian Government. If you ask me, Nigerian Govt. should come up with a retaliatory decision, for starters, ban all flights and carriers from the UAE from entering the Nigerian airspace. That I believe will show our non-acceptance of such biased and discriminatory policy against us

  4. Thanks for sharing. Though am glad we now have Dubai Consulate in the country but the process and requirements are overwhemling like other visas (western) and they need you to pay some security deposit of $1500. Who wants to cough out this amount for mere visa to middle east

     With other agency it is far more easier and they do it directly from Dubai. I will recommend spitzon LLC, I have used them couple of times.  http://www.spitzon.com/dubai-travel-agent-in-nigeria/
