He called on the United Kingdom and the European Union to replicate the US’s move by punishing fraudulent and compromised individuals who played a role in undermining the Nigerian elections.

US Secretary of State Antony Blinken announced on Monday that the United States is committed to supporting and advancing democracy in Nigeria and worldwide. He revealed that visa restrictions had been imposed on specific individuals in Nigeria for their role in undermining the democratic process during the country’s 2023 elections cycle.

In response to this development, Timi Frank issued a statement expressing his support and urging the United Kingdom and the European Union to take similar action against those who undermined the 2023 general elections in Nigeria.

Frank sees the US decision as a source of hope, emphasizing that those who brazenly undermine democratic processes should face dire consequences.

Frank stated, “It is indeed a wake-up call for all other political actors who have mastered the art of sabotaging and scuttling democratic electioneering processes for personal gains.” He believes that the US has demonstrated its commitment to the Nigerian people and their democratic aspirations.

Furthermore, Frank called on the US government to extend the visa ban to the families and associates of the individuals currently in the US, in order to serve as a deterrent to corrupt politicians. He emphasized the need for the US to investigate and expose all collaborators and conspirators who actively participated in disenfranchising the Nigerian people.

The visa ban imposed by the United States on individuals who undermined Nigeria’s democratic process has garnered significant attention and appreciation from those seeking a fair and transparent electoral system in the country.
