Beverly Naya reacts to travel ban on African countries over Omicron variant

Nigerian actress Beverly Naya has reacted to the travel ban placed on some African countries due to the covid-19 Omicron variant.

On Sunday the award winning actress shared her views via her Twitter page. In a series of tweets she wrote,
“Breaks my heart every time I hear Africans talking about how much our continent needs the western world when it is actually the other way round. The media has seriously done a number on a lot of African minds. Do your research, I beg you! The world is nothing without Africa,” she tweeted.”

Naya continued,

“African nations need to form an alliance and ban all of these countries. To hell with the narrative they’ve pushed for centuries, this continent has EVERYTHING they need. Africa’s biggest problem is poor leadership which is the sole reason why the above may never happen.”

The United Kingdom banned foreign travellers from Nigeria over the spread of the new covid-19 variant, Omicron. This is following the Canadian Government’s inclusion of Nigeria to its travel ban list over the Omicron COVID-19 variant.
