Namibia Denies Visas To Popular Nigerian Musical Group Due To Ebola

Thousands of music lovers who have already bought tickets for the gig music show to be staged by Nigerian popular R&B outfit, P-Square, this weekend are in for a big disappointment, as the popular twins are struggling to get visas due to Namibia’s policy over Ebola outbreak in West Africa.

P-Square, were billed to perform at a concert organized by the Namibian Breweries Limited at Hage Geingob Stadium in Windhoek on Saturday, with VIP tickets already sold-out.

But the Nigerian High Commissioner to Namibia, Biodun Nathaniel Olorufemi has confirmed to Namibian Sun on Wednesday that the P-Square’s visa application to travel to Namibia was rejected by the country’s High Commission in Nigeria.

Their visa applications were rejected due to restrictions imposed by Namibia on people from Ebola-hit countries, and until it is sorted out, people travelling from Nigeria will not be allowed to enter Namibia, the ambassador was quoted as saying.

Home Affairs Permanent Secretary Patrick Nandago although was not aware of the P-Square visa fiasco, he reiterated the government policy that people from Ebola stricken countries are not allowed to enter the country, until further notice.
