It's a welcome development. I hope it will not be instant citizenship but a gradual process over time like is done in other countries.
After typing, I now wonder the benefits of being a Nigerian citizenship compared to other countries

Good

You think Nigerians women marrying foreigners wants to identify themselves as a Nigerian… Una mumu too much

inoki247:
lol so if a foreigner marry person she go turn Nigerian automatically.


We wey b Nigeria abg wetin b d Advantage...


Bkuz me I neva see the advantage of been a Nigeria wey u say mak anoda person come become citizen, Country wey don full already wey we no see d resources share u wan come add to it....

There are too many advantages

So their Brothers from Chad, Niger and Mali can easily kidnapp Nigerian women and girls, marry them by force and claim citizenship abi?

I pity those arm chair feminist clapping for this. Until una don see fire, una eyes nor go clear. Them go soon clear una doubts sha

Hahaha, na by force?

Will an American or German preferred to become a Nigerian?
It is just a plan to inculcate all these Nigeriens and the Sudanese into our system

Lol like pissing in the gutter any time piss dey catch u, like throwing pure water nylon any where u feel like wen u don drink am abg tell me what I don't know wetin b d advantage of been a Nigerian...

Foreigner dey marry those illmannered boreholes?? Na juju be dat o ..likely those useless CUNTrey dem.

ensamy:
Wrong move, many Onyinbo that come to do business here in Nigeria will misuse it . Fly into Nigeria like today and the next day pick a girl around ikoyi registry , get married and jet out of Nigeria. Next time come and set up construction, mining, logistics etc companies with low or no tax as a Nigerian citizen.

This will be absolute disaster if there's no way to checkmate this

If I were to be aforeigner, I rather accept the Citizenship of Congo, than that of Nigeria.

Guys and ladies are busy rushing out of the country to get other countries' citizenship, these ones are there deceiving themselves when there are more issues they ought to solve.

lol..haba.. The zoo republic Don reach that level

Long overdue. You all will be surprised at how many foreigners that want to acquire Nigerian citizenship. The immigration service was always against it because of abuse and the fact that they will be overwhelmed by applications.


My fear is the abuse of this law by Indians, Lebanese, chinese and even Italians.

Many of the slay queens will cash out.

Oh no!

I see this country becoming a country for

Chadians, Niger republic, Sudanese, Somalis, Malians, Senegalese

Its a tactical move to make these Fulani's bandits from these countries to have a permanent stay in Nigeria

Nigeria has really become a Zoo under this regime.

We say a big NO to such disastrous bill.

BennyDGreat:


This will be absolute disaster if there's no way to checkmate this

nigeria as a CUNTrey IS AN ABSOLUTE DISASTER!

Is this what we need now?! God gave mercy!
They want to sell out this country completely

Simran94:
Lol, who needs their citizenship.
They will not go and face pressing matters

And you are a woman.

Do you know as of right now only women married to Nigerian men can be citizens.

Men married to Nigerian women don't have that privilege.

The Indians, Lebanese and west Africans will abuse it just to authenticate their stay in Nigeria.

Expect a rise in sham marriages.

See mugu dem o! So all those bandits & terrorists that have forcefully married & raped out kids from our underaged girls in the North suddenly have a way to legitimize themselves as Nigerian citizens! One can’t help but wonder if Nigeria will ever recover from the destruction this Ahmed Lawan led NASS has wrought on this nation.

Naija don cast

Which foreigner from a sane country would want to be addressed or identified as a terrorist?

CSTRR:

And you are a woman.

Do you know as of right now only women married to Nigerian men can be citizens.

Men married to Nigerian women don't have that privilege.

We prefer it that way!
Not until criminals from Chad, Niger, China, Lebanon etc move in here and marry an almajiri just for them to become citizens and turn the nation upside down

Identifying and vetting scam marriages will be a humongous task.


Even the US, UK, and EU countries can not properly deal with it.

I would like women to have that equal right, but e hard to implement in Nigeria.

There is no reason to reserve extra seats for women in legislative positions.. That bill is discriminatory in itself and shouldn't be allowed to see the light of the day.

Isn't this a good thing? Is this not a good way to obtain the foreign direct investments we are clamouring for? Will this not create hundreds or even millions of employment for our teeming youths? Who knows, maybe we will get an Elon musk to come and invest in Nigeria.

Good move!

You don open way for Nigeriens and Sudanese be that.

[quote author=Father254 post=110052268][/quote]don't mind them bro.I later got mine thru one immigration officer.

You have a point too.

The potential for abuse is high.

Criminals from Chad, Niger, China and Lebanon are already here and turning the nation upside down without the need for citizenship. They enter the country and operate without any hindrance by bribing immigration officers.
