9 Nigerian Spots We Can't Wait to Visit Now That Visas are Exempted For Us

The Aswan Forum on peace and security concluded yesterday with some exciting news. President of Nigeria Muhammadu Buhari announced that starting January 2020, Nigeria will be granting all African citizens complete visa exemption. The visa still currently stands at LE 570 for Egyptians according to Egyptian travel site visage.com.eg, but that will soon change.

What not a lot of people might know though is that it’s not just their heavenly Jollof Rice and funky AfroBeats we go crazy for, but it’s also the buzzing colourful markets and building exteriors, the lush national parks and the eyegasmic mountainous landscapes. So without further ado, here’s a list of nine gorgeous spots you need to check out when you’re in Nigeria next year!
