A non-refundable N10,000 special charges placed on Nigerians seeking Visa Clearance to certain countries, by the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) has been protested against by the Minority Caucus in the House of Representatives.
The caucus in a statement by it's Minority Leader Hon. Ndudi Elumelu, today, March 25, stressed that while “it is not against any genuine Visa Clearance measures, especially those placed to curb drug trafficking and other criminal tendencies, it is however concerned about policies such as fees, that tend to place undue pressure on innocent citizens”. The Caucus, therefore urged the NDLEA to take steps that will lead to an immediate review of the non-refundable fee to an affordable amount, while putting measure to adequately sensitize Nigerians on the issue.
