But I think there's a new security protocols in immigration especially for those traveling to Canada. Others should take note.

Vote Peter Obi and let's stay back and build this country.
This has got to be the stupidest comment I've read on this forum in a long while.

Why do you Zombiedients have such weird orientation. Condemn criminality and stop excusing criminals. This attitude is the reason why gunmen/IPOB has been hacking down the lives of Easterners for years without fear.

How? You don't understand what is going on.
This is a normal case in Nigeria, although illegal most people use this avenue to travel abroad.

How does a person from a poor background afford millions of naira?
How do you think he can make a poor person become a millionaire, do you expect him to be dashing them his money so they can meet up Canada's financial requirements?

What he does is that he transfers his own money into poor students account so they can meet financial requirements for travelling, then remove the funds after they've settled.

That's the crime is been charged for.

It is a crime anyways.

You people should calm down O.
Every nation has their own beliefs.
British believe they are great discoverers and colonist.
Americans believe they are the best in science and technology.
Switzerland believe they are experts at making wristwatch, chocolate and saving international money in banks.
Japanese believe they can make more advance tech than America.
Chinese believe they can make everything for everybody for the cheapest price.
Philippines believe they are very good domestic servants.
Indians believe they are the best vegetarians and best at offering customer service....
--
Nigeria is a collection of different tribes of people who were forced to belong to one country.
We don't have any belief in anything as a nation.
Hence the people easily misbehave all the time. No leader has told us what to do.
The leader sef, doesn't even know what to do. Just use police to be flogging everybody everytime.
We are already angry just being together inside our country. And that anger is not resolved yet.

If Nigerians are not desperate to flee the country with or without proper prerequisites can't that tell your shallow mindedness that we have a leadership crisis in this country.

Anyway if you people can vote for Buhari and after tinubu, you have been eluded from reality.

Citizenship? ... they are likely to be deported for filing false claims. 2 years for the agent plus $29K fine..... maybe his citizenship be revoked be face deportation.

Bad governance had nothing to do with former citizens committing crime the same way good governance wonā€™t automatically turn citizens good.
Not really a serious crime? Itā€™s a federal crime. Falsifying information and creating fraudulent documents is a very serious crime and itā€™s very unfair to Nigerians who actually have the means to immigrate. Iā€™m surprised that he didnā€™t receive a harsher sentence. If he was here in the US, heā€™d be facing more time and those he helped would be deported just as they will be in Canada. Thereā€™s a strong probability that those 5 people are facing jail time before theyā€™re deported. Depending on his status, thereā€™s a big chance heā€™ll also be deported after serving his sentence.
I guarantee that this will put other potential Nigerian immigrants and their documents under a strong microscope, causing the Canadian government to use stronger verification methods such as electronic funds verification like many other countries. Because of this, the amount of visa denials will soon increase.

For now but that number will soon increase. Do you know why? Instead of accepting their wrongdoings and their punishment, those 5 people will tell on other Nigerians who did similar, causing them to be investigated. It happens all the time here in the US and other countries. Once a Nigerian is picked up by ICE, they voluntarily start throwing others under the bus by giving names and most times, the people they tell on are the ones that helped them with money, food, accommodation, etc.

With all due respect, no sir. What he did is not what licensed agents do at all. Maybe you missed the part about the authorities finding evidence of him creating false documents like bank statements and helping them come up with lies to deceive immigration? The transferring of money for the purpose of deceiving immigration isnā€™t legal either and thatā€™s why so many people struggle after immigratingā€”they didnā€™t really have the funds necessary to survive and had plans to get by on ā€œhustlingā€ and those plans fail.

Hmmm.

Age long business of Nigerians in the entire south. Visa agents/immigration facilitation is an international practice. The young manā€™s offence is that he is unlicensed, unlike the practice in Nigeria where it is open to everyone and most people are not licensed.

Licensing requires an oath of honesty and integrity. His offense is that he committed fraud. Submitting fake bank documents to a government agency is a crime everywhere outside Nigeria in fact just like lying about income on a bank application.
