Why we cancelled 264 Nigerians’ visa — Saudi Arabia

The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia’s Abuja Embassy has clarified the media and social media reports about the Nigerian citizens who were sent back from the entry point into the Kingdom.

The Embassy said that the passengers who were turned away and returned to their original destinations did not meet the entry criteria and standards according to the Kingdom’s rules and regulations.

They gave the wrong information to get a type of visa that was not suitable for them, which was found out when they arrived.
