Those black SA mean Nigerians.


Our eyes never clear yet.


Are you trying to tell me he did not marry the person he loves. What about the black SA that marry through friends or parents connections.

he can solve it by bribes.
You can only bribe when eyes are not on you.

But in this kind of high profile case, I fear he would be a scapegoat.

So the proffessor in this story can get this UN passport, even though his situation is due to his own fraudulent behavior?
NO, he would not qualify, he denounced his nigerian citizens willingly, he can still and still entitled to reapply to re instate his Nigeria citizenship, which would likely be reinstated by the Nigerian authorities, he still have families in Nigeria i would pressume, Nigerians government would not reject him.

I did say after rigorous investigations and it is found that his case is genuine.

He may have been striped of his citizenship but he is now a global citizen till further resolution of his citizenship.
he can reapply for his original Nigerian citizen and he would get it, he cannot be declared stateless at this point, especially if he has being accussed of fraud.

Half the mofos here if I ask won't even know what renouncing Nigeria's citizenship means. It means nothing. And unless a person advertises it on CNN how will Nigeria know? And even if they did, what is the benefit of having Nigeria's citizenship?

I doubt that.

Nigeria can be vengeful when it really wants to be.

Those mallams at immigration will teach him a bitter lesson.
he can, that would be his only choice, and they cannot deny him, yes! They may frustrate him but his nigerian citizen would be reinstated, i would assume he has families in Nigeria record would also show that he was born in Nigeria and Nigeria is not denying him.

The man played himself. He lied that he wasn't merried, meanwhile he was legally married in Nigeria; he even listed his Nigerian wife as his sister when stating his relatives left in Nigeria. Even Nigerian law requires that you divorce before taking up another wife. He committed a fraud.

His Nigerian marriage was not just a customary marrriage but court marriage, yet he claimed to be single.

Love is not the issue here cos he divorced his SA wife 2 years after marriage and proceeded to bring in same Naija woman he listed as his sister to SA, under the guise of wanting to marrry her; Meanwhile they were already married before he entered SA initially. Fraud!

Being stateless he can apply as a refugee in most European country and he will probably be granted refugee status and from there can process citizenship......The problem is just that he will be starting life all over again

BTW, it was very stupid to denounce his Nigerian citizenship.

Things can Change and you may need it badly.

He may not have done it by choice.

If South Africa requires that you don't hold dual nationality, then you have to renounce one to get another.
Re: Edwin Okey Chikata Ijeoma Expelled From South Africa by juman(m): 11:38pm On Feb 23, 2021
Even if you get citizenship of a country legally it can re withdrawn for one reason or the other.

They believe you can pick up your original or birth citizenship anytime anyday.

You all should remember that the said person committed a criminal offense. Now any country other than Nigeria will be careful to admit a stateless person who has previously committed a serious crime. If he ever comes back to Nigeria, he should hope not to face the charges of Bigamy. If UN has any arrangement for stateless people, it is for the people who as a result of their history and native circumstances became stateless, not criminals who disregard immigration laws.

A conviction for immigration fraud will scupper his chances.

With his level of education, it shouldn’t be hard for him to get another country ready to accept him.

Better not to have a country than this contraption where a terrorist Sheikh has the audacity to tell us that Bandits are not criminals but victims of their victims

See countries that value their citizenship. Do Nigerian authorities even challenge illegal immigrants here that fraudulently obtained Nigerian citizenship and passport?

Whenever you are intellectually smart and evidently brilliant- as evidenced in your academic contribution to knowledge- do not chase any woman/man for marriage as regards to citizenship. I wish I can sound this out to Nigerians.
As long as you continously work hard, your academic excellence is enough for any sensible country to grant you a chance to citizenship through an existing route. And they will respect you when that happens.

The citizen by marriage route is a fast-track route, but often fraught with trouble. Do not take it.
This man can easily move to another country BUT he has two challenges, (1) Being stateless and (2) Showing that you are of good character.
Goodluck to him. He'll need it.
If you like become the most intelligent or richest person in the world, any country can withdrawal their citizenship from you since it is by right not by birth, as far as your parents aren't natives of the land. If you break the law they'll withdraw it from you.

So, if a Nigerian denounces his citizenship then he/she can get a UN passport and be able to work/live in almost every single country on earth? If this is true, Nigerian would be empty by now.
