U.K. reportedly set to ban Nigerian students, others from bringing family over.

The United Kingdom is set to ban Nigerian and other foreign students from bringing their families over, the Sun UK reports.

The new restrictions, which will be announced on Tuesday or Wednesday this week, will see all masters students & many other post grads banned from bringing family over.
