The United Arab Emirates (UAE) has lifted a year-long visa ban imposed on Nigerian travellers.

President Tinubu’s spokesperson Ajuri Ngelale says following the agreement, Emirates and Etihad airlines are to resume Nigeria flight operations immediately.
The UAE had banned the issuance of visas to Nigerians following several diplomatic squabbles between the two countries.
Flights between both countries were stopped last year after Dubai’s Emirates airline suspended its operations in Nigeria citing trapped revenues.
