The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Regional Integration has urged the public to disregard reports that the United Arab Emirates (UAE) has placed a visa ban on Ghana.
Earlier reports suggested that the UAE had placed a visa ban on Ghana and 20 other countries.
In a statement, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs insisted that “the said publication assigned no reason for the ban, but social media sources have alleged that it is aimed at keeping away visitors from African countries who usually overstay their visit visas in the UAE.”
According to the Foreign Affairs Ministry, “It has received no such communication from the authorities in the UAE and as such the story should be disregarded.”
