Immigration fears grow among Africans after UK poll results

Wale Elegbede

Fear and uncertainty are spreading across African communities in Britain following the strong showing by the anti-immigration leaning Nigel Farage led Reform UK in recent local council elections.

Across cities including Birmingham, Manchester and London, many African migrants say the election outcome has triggered fresh anxiety about their future in the country, with some already considering relocation plans amid fears of tougher immigration policies and rising hostility towards foreigners.

“It feels like the atmosphere is changing very quickly,” said Chinedu Okafor, a Nigerian care worker based in Birmingham. “A lot of us are already discussing Plan B. Some are talking about Canada while others want to return home if things become unbearable.”

The right wing DEFINITELY winning the next election and will be majorly based on immigration reforms.

Normal UK style..

Promotes Japa to UK…Collect enough money from people….After sometime, change the immigration laws to what won’t favour the immigrants…Send those immigrants away eventually..

After sometime, they’ll promote Japa again and repeat the same cycle..

Sha, I don’t blame UK o. There’s no way you’ll be hearing that some Africans do sell their properties to Japa come UK, and you’ll expect UK not to extract as much as possible… UK wey be king of extractors..

The right wing DEFINITELY winning the next election and will be majorly based on immigration reforms.
And that would be Satanic. A plot to commence a new HEGEMONIC APARTIED ENDTIME WAR OF LOVE AND HATE.
THE INDIANS AND THE NIGERIANS ARE COMING.

FARAGE IS EVIL. MAY BE KC, KS AND KB SHOULD JOIN FARAGE TO REFORM HIS PARTY .

THAT FIVE MILION POUND STERLING GIFT TO FARAGE IS "WINDFALL REMUNERATION ".
IT MUST BE DECLARED BECAUSE IT IS "TAXABLE".

So after one of those Reform UK wereys call Nigerians something he'd like to fill up UK's pot-holes with, una still wan come?

Who do us laidis?

Those guys can only win local elections, not national..

It will still be Labour or Conservative ruling after their election.

Nigel is a local champion.

Deport them all. Sebi they were supporting a failed Tinubu from a nation that works.

Develop your country, that's the only solution!

If someone had told the average UK citizen in the year 1900, that the Liberal party would be useless thirty years from that time, the guy would have looked at you like you dey on something...

Yes, for now Labor or the Tories look to be in a good space, but...and I emphasize but...this is british politics. HIstorically speaking, anything can happen.

Labour too almost got knocked off by the SDP in the 1980's self.

Tell me, how have you personally developed 9ja?

Here is something you guys should know..every country has the right to control immigration to and from its borders.

Screaming arphateid doesn't change nada. (Yes, reform is made up of some racists, i know). Every country should and must regulate its borders.

Plus most of the problem is caused by immigrants coming in, not conforming to the culture of the host country , and doing as they like, and too many people with nothing legit doing in the countries that contributes to the countries' economic and social development.

Finally, you nigerians should stop voting in folks like tinubu, and vote someone who wont run a sharing money economy. Maybe people go stay at home self. Most people really don't want to emigrate if given a choice.

Japa...always living in fear after selling your property and now you are scared of
Immigration
Your wife divorce
Child custody
Payment
Not making it
Your kids not coming home
Scared of old age where to die and be buried
Scared of retiring... You don't retire you work till you die there

It's not just worth it


The rate race is too much

Nothing bad

It's creation of opportunity to disenfranchised nigerians


And many have been able to normalised their stay

You can always compare the Farage to Trump. His words appeal to his base even when its sounds awkward to you.

The anti immigrant tone is at an all time high and he is buying into it.

Haven't seen the word XENOPHOBIA anywhere 🙄🙄🙄 Or is it only reserved for SA?

Ghana can easily say "Nigerians must go" and its not "xenophobic" but wait until we do the same.. we are clearly measured at a different standard

The problem is not immigration as such.
The UK people are tired of the religion of peace.

All Hausas loves Bola Tinubu, All Ijaws loves Bola Tinubu including all the Yorubas

It will get better with time

Nigel is just another Trump

I keep wondering why human beings behave in this way...the Lord of creation expect humans to love their own fellow kind and to treat strangers in their midst with love and kindness but the reverse is the case....Satan is the Lord of hate and chaos and have guided the hearts of the world into hatred and violence

We thought Indians and Pakistanis are everywhere in the UK but the white British came out this time to vote. It is now obvious that British can decide their future.
