Nigerian Passport Becomes World’s Fifth Most Powerful- After CNN’s Fareed Zakaria Analysis
nigerian-passport-becomes-fifth-most-powerful-after-cnn-fareed-zakaria-analysis
For the first time ever, an African passport is among the top five most powerful in the world. Revealing this on its website, the Henley Passport Index released its ranking for the year 2020 and Nigeria had a dramatic rise from being at the 95th spot to going up to the 5th most powerful knocking out both Spain and Denmark and tying with Luxembourg.
This, surprisingly, is coming after the White House announced late last month that immigrants from Nigeria and five other countries will no longer be eligible for visas allowing them to live in the US permanently, expanding Trump’s controversial travel ban policy. The proclamation cited Nigeria’s failure to comply with security and information sharing requirements, and its high “terror” risk to the US as reasons for imposing the restriction.
But as CNN’s Fareed Zakaria analyzed in the latest episode of his current affairs program ‘Fareed Zakaria GPS’, Nigerians pose no specific security threat whatsoever to the US and its placing on the travel ban list only amplifies Trump’s racist views on immigration. Zakaria noted that if Trump’s desire for highly skilled immigrants was really a thing, then Nigerians should definitely not be on the ban list. This is because Nigerian immigrants who make up the largest sub-Saharan African immigrants in the US as of 2017, are highly skilled, English speaking immigrants.
Hours after Zakaria’s analysis, the Nigerian passport value suddenly skyrocketed as countries including Canada, Britain, Germany, France, China, Japan, Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates, Brazil, and 186 other countries relaxed their visa requirements for Nigerians, wanting a share of those highly skilled immigrants that the US president is too racist to see.
Culled from OG.

God bless Buhari. We will eventually get there. If not for the level of hate our own citizens vituperate on Nigeria, we would have made more giant strides. By the way, I haven't heard much about Aregberascal in his new ministry.

Saw this on Whatsapp.:



This is from a Master Degree holder who recently worked in Shenzhen Hospital and later
then transferred to Wuhan the epic center of the disease to study the new pneumonia virus. He called his relatives to pass this useful information to all relatives and friends..

QUOTE:
If you have a running nose and sputum occur during a cold, it cannot be concluded that it is new-type coronavirus pneumonia. Because coronavirus is a dry cough without running nose, this is a the simplest way to identify it. He also informed that this new type coronary pneumonia virus is not heat resistant and will be killed in an environment
of 26 to 27 deg C.

Therefore, drink plenty of hot water to prevent the virus. As long as the body maintains heat eat more ginger and do more exercise, you will not be infected with the virus.If you have a high fever cover yourself with a quilt and drink ginger soup to increase the body'd heat energy without the need for a vaccine.

Eating more ginger, garlic, pepper as pepper can solve it, eat less sweet, sour and salty and don't go to cold weather areas.

The virus will disappear completely when exposed to the Sun.

Everyone can share this and help one another.
UNQUOTE

Please share with whoever you wish, as it may save some lives.

The above may explain very few persons if any one is infected in Indonesia and India.

Do take few minutes to mail & inform as many as possible your friends and your relatives.
