NAIROBI, Kenya, Oct 27 — Kenya has protested Nigeria’s treatment of Kenyans seeking visas, with Foreign Affairs Principal Secretary Korir Sing’Oei describing the process as “unacceptable” and vowing diplomatic and political action.
Sing’Oei said the government was pursuing a resolution to what he termed “unwarranted inconvenience” faced by Kenyans applying for Nigerian visas, citing the lack of reciprocity between the two countries.
“The treatment of Kenyans seeking visas to Nigeria is unacceptable. While we extend visa-free entry to Nigerian citizens, this is not reciprocated,” Sing’Oei said in a statement.
