Larry Madowo, a Kenyan journalist, has criticized Nigeria over the cost and process of obtaining a visa to enter the country.
Speaking on the issue, Madowo said holders of a Kenya passport are required to pay about $80 to obtain a Nigerian visa.
According to him, the visa itself costs around $25, but additional online processing and payment charges significantly increase the total amount applicants must pay.
He also alleged that some travelers who apply for multiple-entry visas eventually receive only single-entry visas.
“Giant of Africa, you dey fall my hand… Nigerians say others ‘carry last’, but you’re the one carrying last in terms of visa openness for other Africans,” he said.
