Nigeria improves on visa openness index

Legit.ng reported that Nigeria is currently number six in Africa, a notable improvement in the continent’s visa openness index that shows how easy it is to get a visa from Nigeria.

Visa openness is the ease with which travelers can get authorization to go to and enter a country, pending final determination by the destination immigration officers, according to new reports from the African Development Bank (AfDB) and other sources.

This Day reported that this suggests that the easier it is for a traveler to visit a country, the more visa-open that country is.
