UK Govt Wrongfully Labels A Black British Disabled Teenager A Nigerian by NAIJASTANDARD71: 2:28am On May 03, 2022
RACISM:
UK Government wrongfully label a Black British Non-verbal (Disabled) teenage citizen a Nigerian, detained at Gatwick Immigration centre for deportation
…Mother asked why 17-year-old disabled son was found at an immigration detention centre during treatment for psychosis

*Boy sectioned under the Mental Health Act on 7 April, arrested 48 hours later by British Transport Police at Euston on suspicion of fare evasion

*After teenager’s return to hospital, clothes contained Home Office documents incorrectly records name, date of birth, and nationality as
Nigerian due to color of skin

*“It’s just horrific. Just because my son is black they (Immigration Enforcement officers) assumed they should put him in a deportation
centre. How do they know he’s from Nigeria, when he couldn’t even speak? Must every black British citizen be Nigerian? My boy is a British
citizen. He would not have been able to say his date of birth, or he was from Nigeria”-Mother

*“Unaccompanied minors or children under the age of 18 should not be in detention in the first place. In theory, detention should be an absolute last resort, rather than an early step you would go to. We will certainly investigate this matter”-James Wilson, deputy director of
Detention Action

They believe once you're black, you're a Nigerian.
