Former Senator of Kaduna Central, Shehu Sani, has criticized President Donald Trump of the United States for his partial travel ban on Nigerians.

In a post on his verified X account on Monday, Sani urged Trump to permit Nigerians, whom he claims to be protecting, to travel freely to his country.

“Trump should allow those Nigerians he claims to be protecting to travel freely to his country, the United States of America.

“You cannot love someone and then exclude them from your home. The level of affection shown to white South Africans should be extended to Nigerians.

“Love with conditions is not genuine love. Sowore’s perspective on this matter is logical and rational,” stated the former lawmaker.

It is worth noting that the United States, under President Donald Trump's administration, had implemented a partial travel ban on Nigeria.

Additionally, on Christmas Day, Trump ordered the US military to conduct an airstrike on terrorist strongholds in Nigeria’s North-West region.
