Nauru is a small island country in Micronesia, in the Central Pacific, northeast of Australia. Formerly known as ‘Pleasant Island’, it is the world’s smallest independent republic and was once among the world’s richest countries. Notwithstanding the present economic gloom, the island still offers glimpses of its former glory.
Nauru is not the easiest place to visit and is ranked one of the world’s least visited countries and most complicated visa process.

I’m wondering why the visa process should be this complicated thereby hindering people from visiting there. If they had a rich culture and tourist attraction, they should think of making it easier for tourists to reach there. Already, they are almost at the end of the world. No wonder they are called ‘an island”. Not many people are welcomed by their process. lol
Who would have been to Nauru? How many people don go London or even Ghana here? Nauru ko, Nassarawa ni.
