US Plans Mandatory Five-Year Social Media Check for All Foreign Visitors Under New Trump Policy The Trump administration is proposing sweeping new entry rules that would require all foreign travellers—including Britons—to submit five years of social media history, email addresses, phone numbers, and detailed family information before being allowed into the United States. The plan, revealed in a notice published in the Federal Register, would make social-media screening mandatory for both visa and ESTA applicants. The new policy also seeks expanded biometric data collection, including face scans, fingerprints, iris scans, and possibly DNA. Rights groups have raised concerns as reports increase of travellers being denied entry based on phone content or online posts critical of President Trump. The proposal comes amid ongoing controversies over free speech, including clashes between the Trump administration, media figures, and institutions like Harvard University. A 60-day public consultation period is now open. #USImmigration #TrumpAdministration #SocialMediaScreening

NAFDAC Raises Alarm Over Surge of Smuggled Prohibited Food Products in Nigerian Markets NAFDAC has issued a public warning about the increasing circulation of prohibited food products—including pasta, noodles, sugar, and tomato paste—illegally smuggled into Nigerian markets. The agency says these items, listed on the Customs Prohibition List, bypass mandatory safety checks and pose serious health risks. NAFDAC has ordered importers, supermarkets, and traders to immediately stop the sale and distribution of such products or face seizures, licence revocations, and prosecution. The agency also called for coordinated action with Customs, Immigration, SON, NPA, NIMASA, NAQS, and other regulators to prevent further influx of unsafe items. NAFDAC reaffirmed its commitment to protecting consumers and enforcing food safety regulations nationwide.

US Supreme Court to Hear Trump’s Appeal on Ending Birthright Citizenship in Landmark Immigration Case The U.S. Supreme Court has agreed to hear President Donald Trump’s appeal seeking to reinstate his executive order that redefines birthright citizenship by excluding children born in the U.S. to undocumented or temporary-status parents. The order, signed on January 20 during Trump’s second term, has been blocked nationwide after a federal judge ruled it would cause “irreparable harm” and abruptly reverse long-standing citizenship policy. The case now positions the Supreme Court to determine both the legality of the order and the extent of presidential authority over citizenship. Arguments will take place in the spring, with a ruling expected by early summer. The decision could become one of the most consequential immigration rulings in decades.

A Nigerian user has joked about the “December migration pattern,” claiming Akure ladies allegedly head for Lagos while Lagos ladies allegedly move to Abuja once the festive season starts — humorously calling it “shifting cultivation.” 😂 #DettyDecember #DecemberMigration #NaijaHumour #Instablog9jaVibes

US Cuts Work Permit Validity for Non-Citizens From 5 Years to 18 Months Over Security Concerns The United States has reduced the validity period of employment authorization for non-citizens from five years to 18 months as part of a new security-focused immigration policy. USCIS says shorter renewals will enable more frequent background checks to detect fraud and security threats. The move follows a recent attack in Washington and comes amid a broader suspension of immigration processing for 19 countries under the Trump administration, raising concerns about prolonged uncertainty for thousands of applicants.

World news: The US government has paused all immigration applications from 19 countries and canceled citizenship ceremonies across the US, citing national security and public safety concerns.

The physical verification remains an essential phase of recruitment for the NIS, NCoS, FFS, and NSCDC, where candidates’ identities, documents, and fitness will be assessed before final selection.

🚨BREAKING: The Senate is now weighing IMPEACHMENT proceedings against far-Left activist judge James Boasberg — THIS WEEK — after he refused to testify. About time. If a federal judge thinks he’s above oversight, that’s a problem. If he refuses to answer for rulings that have reshaped national security and immigration policy, that’s an even bigger problem. These rogue judges can’t be allowed to sabotage the country from the bench. From Fox News: • Boasberg and Judge Deborah Boardman refused to testify at a Senate hearing titled “Impeachment: Holding Rogue Judges Accountable.” • Boasberg has sparked a firestorm with rulings that repeatedly handcuffed the Trump administration — including blocking the use of the Alien Enemies Act to deport Venezuelans. • Lawmakers are also questioning his apparent role in “Arctic Frost,” the FBI program that allegedly tracked communications of multiple Republican members of Congress. • Boardman is also in the spotlight for blocking reforms to birthright citizenship. The Senate’s next move could reshape the entire judiciary. And for the first time in a long time, activist judges might finally be held accountable.

🇺🇸WELCOME TO AMERICA, NOW PLEASE DON’T KILL ANYONE There was a time when immigration policy was about balancing compassion with caution. Now, it's a twisted game of roulette where we’re told to welcome everyone, no questions asked - and hope nobody ends up dead. Spoiler: that hope just ran out. This week, two National Guard troops were shot in Washington, D.C. One of them died. The shooter? An Afghan refugee brought here under the Biden administration’s Operation Allies Welcome program. You’d think someone would be asking how a supposed “ally” turned into a killer with a gun in the heart of the capital. But instead, the media is too busy debating whether it's racist to ask questions at all. And if that weren’t enough, just days later, another Afghan - also brought in under the same rushed refugee initiative - was arrested in Texas for planning a terrorist attack. Guess what that means? We’re importing threats faster than we can detect them. But don’t worry, the mainstream media assures us this is all just fearmongering. They’ll spend more airtime handwringing over the tone of the conversation than over the bullet wounds. Because the real crime, according to them, is not that Americans are being attacked - it's that someone dared to suggest border security might be a good idea. This isn’t about painting all immigrants with the same brush. It’s about the absolute clown show masquerading as an immigration system. Vetting? Minimal. Follow-up? Spotty. Background checks? Apparently optional if your sob story sounds good enough. And the result is painfully predictable: dead Americans and chaotic streets. Under Biden, the southern border was wide open, the vetting of evacuees from conflict zones was a mess, and asking basic questions about who gets in counted as a hate crime in polite society. You couldn't even suggest a pause or stricter screening without being labeled a xenophobe by blue-check experts who wouldn’t last five minutes without a security detail. Your tax dollars flew these people here. Your laws were being ignored to protect political optics. And your neighbors, guardsmen, and kids are the ones paying the ultimate price when something goes horribly, tragically wrong. Call it racist, call it mean, call it whatever makes you feel good. But at the end of the day, Americans are dying because someone decided that feelings matter more than facts. And if that doesn't outrage you, you’re either not paying attention or you’re too busy posting about “tolerance” from a gated community.

Tim Walz Responds to Trump’s Thanksgiving Attack as Immigration Clash Intensifies Minnesota Governor Tim Walz pushed back at former President Donald Trump after Trump used a slur to attack him and Rep. Ilhan Omar in a Thanksgiving Truth Social post criticizing Democratic immigration policies. Walz responded by calling for Trump to release his MRI results, referencing a recent medical visit. Trump’s posts blamed immigration for crime, housing issues, and social dysfunction, and accused Somali refugees of overwhelming Minnesota—claims not supported by federal data, which shows about 705 Somali nationals hold Temporary Protected Status. The exchange follows Trump’s move to revoke protections for Somali nationals and his proposals for sweeping immigration restrictions, including halting migration from “Third World countries” and deporting those he calls “non-compatible with Western Civilization.” The heated rhetoric comes amid national attention on a recent deadly shooting involving an Afghan refugee. #Tim Walz #donald trump #Trump Thanksgiving post #Ilhan Omar #Minnesota immigration debate

Gunmen Kill Three Immigration Officers in Deadly Attack at Kebbi Border Checkpoint Suspected members of the Lakurawa terrorist group launched a midnight assault on a Nigeria Immigration Service checkpoint in Bakin Ruwa, Bagudo LGA of Kebbi State, killing three officers and heightening fear among border communities.

SECURITY SWEEP: The director of U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services has ordered a full review of all green cards issued to immigrants from countries of "concern” and halted all Afghan-related immigration processing following the arrest of an Afghan national suspected of shooting two National Guard members. The list of affected countries has not yet been released, as the Trump administration reiterates that “American safety is non-negotiable.”

U.S. President Donald Trump issued a fiery Thanksgiving message calling for an immediate and “permanent pause” on immigration from what he described as “all Third World countries.” In a lengthy post on his social media accounts, Trump sharply criticised U.S. immigration policies, claiming the foreign-born population is too large, overly dependent on welfare, and responsible for social and economic strain. He repeated several unverified claims—such as immigrants contributing to rising crime, overwhelming schools and hospitals, and “taking over” parts of Minnesota—while attacking state officials and Congresswoman Ilhan Omar. Trump outlined hardline proposals including stopping migration from developing nations, cancelling what he called “Biden-era illegal admissions,” ending federal benefits for non-citizens, denaturalising certain migrants, and deporting those he described as public charges or “non-compatible with Western civilisation.” He ended the message with a pointed holiday note, saying Thanksgiving wishes did not extend to people who “hate, steal, murder, and destroy.” The statement came shortly after U.S. authorities identified two National Guard members shot in Washington, D.C. The FBI is investigating the incident as a possible act of terrorism. The suspected shooter, 29-year-old Afghan national Rahmanullah Lakanwal, was arrested and charged with attempted murder and illegal firearm possession.

Kenyan Police Arrest Three Nigerians Over Suspected Cyber Fraud. Kenyan authorities have arrested three Nigerian nationals for alleged cyber fraud and immigration offences after residents reported suspicious activity in a rented apartment in Mwea, Kirinyaga County. The suspects — Peter Chukwujekwu, Alazor Chukulute Sunday, and Nnalue Chiagozie Samwel — were arrested on 12 November 2025 in a joint operation by the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) and immigration officers in Mwaliko Estate, Ngurubani. According to Streamline, the DCI said, “A well-coordinated multi-agency raid in Mwaliko Estate has blown the lid off a suspected cyber fraud ring operated by three Nigerian nationals.”  The raid followed reports from residents about unusual movements and late-night activity in the apartment. Investigators recovered 21 phones, 79 SIM cards, a Dell laptop, and several credit cards believed to be linked to online fraud. Authorities say the items suggest a network possibly involved in identity theft and financial scams. Checks also showed the three were in Kenya illegally, with expired entry passes and no work permits. They claimed to be “running an online business,” but detectives are probing possible ties to wider cybercrime groups. “The three are currently cooling their heels in custody as investigators dig deeper into their network,” Streamline added. The suspects remain in custody as forensic teams analyse the seized devices and trace possible links to other operations locally and abroad. Their arrest comes amid a surge in cyber threats in Kenya. The Communications Authority recorded 2.54 billion incidents between January and March 2025, a major rise from late 2024. Many Kenyans have also fallen victim to phishing emails and fake text messages. Kenya has strengthened penalties under the Computer Misuse and Cybercrimes Act of 2018 and its 2025 amendment, which impose fines of up to KSh 20 million and jail terms of up to 10 years for major cyber offences.

Islamic Affairs Council rejects claims of Christian Genocide in Nigeria. The Nigerian Supreme Council for Islamic Affairs (NSCIA) has rejected claims of a Christian Genocide in Nigeria, describing them as false, politically motivated, and dangerous. At a press briefing in Abuja on Sunday, Secretary-General Prof. Is-haq Oloyede said the narrative promoted by some Western media and political figures aims to destabilize the country. Oloyede stressed that the violence in Nigeria is driven by poverty, criminality, and climate-related migration, rather than religious persecution. He stated, “There is no Christian terrorism. There is no Muslim terrorism. There is no religious intolerance in Nigeria. The tragedy we face stems from poverty, climate change, poor governance, and armed criminals exploiting divisions, while parts of the world use the situation for geopolitical gain.” His remarks come after US President Donald Trump condemned alleged mass killings of Christians in Nigeria and warned of possible military action if the government fails to act. Oloyede accused certain separatist groups, foreign lobbyists, and US politicians of manipulating insecurity in Nigeria to push fabricated statistics and doctored videos, seeking punitive measures against the country. The NSCIA urged both the Nigerian government and the international community to dismiss the “false and destabilizing” claims. Oloyede called on President Trump to provide intelligence and logistical support instead of engaging in smear campaigns. He emphasized unity among Nigerians, stating, “There is no Muslim terrorism or Christian terrorism in Nigeria—only criminals exploiting our divisions.”
