Nigeria has added Emirates to its list of banned airlines in its country. The ban will take effect on September 21.
Nigerian Aviation Minister Hadi Sirica made the announcement in a social media statement on Friday.
Nigeria has taken this step against the UAE government for refusing to renew visas for Nigerians in Dubai and for banning the issuance of new visas to Nigerians.
However, the UAE embassy in Nigeria has denied the issue of visa ban for Nigerians.
