Socio-economic reality of Nigeria today is at par with Bokoharam insurgency if not worse. |

What if that's the truth? I know a Pastor from Akwa Ibom who had lived about 20 years in Zaria... There was a time he had to abandon his home for almost a year because Fulani bandits wanted to kill him... He went into hiding until the tension calmed down. Let's no always assume, especially what we do not know.... DropsMic: 1 Like |

No they are not only interested in the kid. Many people with no skills get approved all the time. You just have to show that you're a law abiding person and your story has to add up to a level. The asylum line long well well. So it takes years to get it. gypsey: 1 Like |

Eriokanmi: Religious persecution, LGBTQ, female circumcision are headline items for grant of asylum. This is well known to immigration lawyers. |

chokekachy: Great for the kid. Now he will get all of the opportunities he lacked in Nigeria. I get the desperation by some people to leave Nigeria by all means given the economic difficulties. But I struggle to understand people that go claiming asylum on the basis of being threatened by Boko Haram. This here family for instance are Yoruba people that probably leave in the south of Nigeria claiming asylum over Boko Haram threats. How? The sad irony of it is that the Christians in the north and even in the thick of the Boko Haram crises don't even have the opportunity to apply for asylum or will be profiled and denied asylum when they apply. Instead we have mostly southerners taking up all of Nigeria's asylum quota telling tall tales about some phantom boko haram threat or claiming to be facing a death threat because they are gay. We Nigerians are just wonderful people. 1 Like |
