Trump Administration Excludes Africans from 2025 Visa Waiver Programme | Firstpost Africa | N18G

President Trump’s administration is leaving no stone unturned to show their distrust and discrimination against Africans. In a list released earlier this week, the administration has excluded all 54 countries in Africa from eligibility for a visa waiver, that allows travellers to enter the United States for up to 90 days without a formal visa. In sharp contrast, the Trump administration has included nearly 40 countries in this year’s list – most of which are US allies from Europe and Asia. This has raised eyebrows over the ongoing challenges African nations face in securing easier access to the United States. For years, visa rejection rates for African applicants have been on the rise. Reports suggest that the US authorities have cited concerns around immigration violations, fraud and security risks as reasons for these visa rejections. But such concerns have not been raised for its allies. So why is the US discriminating against Africans? Watch to know more.

  1. Shut up. You know who else was excluded – INDIA. The list remains just as it was during the Biden administration. This goofy channel needs to stop using Nigeria/Africa for views. Focus on INDIA which as a reminder was also on the excluded from the Visa waiver programme. Unless you're so shabby a news network to have not known this.

  2. Great news for African people it’s time to turn Africa into a super power. Now Africa need to do the same and reject US visas and close down all US military bases in Africa and open all borders in Africa. Let’s go Africa. The time has come.

  3. One to point out that this is not Trump administration decision for excluding African countries. Africa has been excluded from the visa waiver program since the program began in 1988. It does't matter who's in the White House whether is Democrat or Republican. The main concerns are illegal immigration, instability countries, high visa fraud applications and lack of sharing intel w/ national security.

  4. ☝️It's not about trust, it's about Trump knows white people the world over have a zero population growth. He trying to stock pile America from caucasoid countries hoping to keep America dominated by white European type of people Trump is focused on racist issues in favor of white cultures 👌👀

  5. Do you blame him, Im sure many came to study or vacation and overstayed their visa. Plus after nine eleven and US is one of the most hated countries in the world they need to screen for terroists and make sure future migrants can assimilate and not be in religions that stirs up problems or have jihadist leanings, otherwise like Europe theres bombings and killings weekly or monthly.

  6. FirstPost give us a BREAK ‼️🙄😏🥱🥱🥱🥱🥱🥱😴😴😴
    America is ONLY 250 years old.
    Our BELOVED beautiful continent of
    🌍🌍 AFRICA 🌍🌍
    was there from the foundations of time.We have OUTLIVED "Every silly 🇺🇸🇺🇸 American" president.
    We WILL OUTLIVE Trump/bunch of cronies‼️‼️‼️‼️🤨🤨😡😡

  7. Lets be truthful ..its easier..
    1. South Africa has overlooked Musk is a Son born on their soil.
    But they fighting him instead of looking at his archievements..
    His the first Black/European who has created and sold masses of EV cars..
    Birn on their soil.
    Instead of fighting him..why not ask him to come up with an affirdable vehicle for him.own.

    2. Embace Space X.. ..
    They both need each other.

    3. South Africa declared their love and death for Palestinians..
    America are for Israel.
    This became a threat on both sides..inside of focusing on the economy
    Trump had just been sworn in, thus unable to attending the meeting.

    4. Its easy to point fingers to Trump yet on the very BRICS partnership..
    Chinese people amongst other Leaders..whom kno their own people..majirity .dislike black people..not matter where they from..(the wealthiest for that matter)
    Yet Trump is more honest then them.

    Black Americans in Souuth Africa a getting rich abusing the African people.
    (A very few)..so why is Musk treated differently?

    Instead of South Africa Leaders bein so angry.. ready to die for Palestine..
    Would it not make sense to focus on the welfare of your own peole first.?

    In other Countries..these Nations are ready to attack if you have a difference of opinion….one has even put ut lighter..yet these very Countries have given not only them South Africans roo a place of refugee.
    Not only them their counter parts..
    Then you hear it from the Siuth African Leadership??
    What is been encouraged..?
    I believe every South African knows the saying of pointing a finger..
    .

  8. This is the moment in time that Africans have been waiting for: “ Trump said: Make Africa Great Again And Show Us How You Did It!” I was so inspired by hearing these words that I immediately contacted PLO Lumumba and told him to declare Kenya the “FIRST STATE” of the United States of Africa!” From here on out, ALL STRATEGIC MINERALS will be processed in Africa.

  9. MESSAGE OF THE DAY

    Any European or American, black or white arrived in Africa without a valid visa should be charged £5000 on the spot for a one week stay, if they refused or cannot afford to pay, they should be thrown in jail for a month and then deported. The curtesy is over, we do not need you or and your western arrogance. We are tired of western double standards. Africa will now apply African rules desiged by Africans. Western colonial minded laws do not apply in our continent. please piss off

  10. I am proud African and thank you Trump, because we Africa's needs to wake up and stop depending on US (international beggers) leaders work together to make a change, make a difference please
