Re: Immigration Fears Grow Among Africans After UK Poll Results by Jman06(m):
UK should stop deporting those already in their country! Allow these people to focus on their jobs and contribute to the growth of your country!

Afterall, Britain contributed to the mess many African countries (especially Nigeria) have become. After years of exploitation of Nigeria, they left the country without dividing it into manageable nations and instead, they continued colonising the country and exploiting her resources. When Ojukwu attempted to create a Biafran nation from Nigeria, Britain still connived with Gowon to prevent it.

They supported the Nigerian government of that time to massacre millions of Igbo men, women and children! Up till this date, they have been interfering with Nigeria's growth and development. They aid and abet corrupt Nigerian politicians who loot the nation's resources and stack them into bank accounts in the UK.

They still allow these unscrupulously corrupt politicians to access the best of healthcare and education from the UK with funds looted from Nigerian treasury thereby hindering them from creating world class hospitals and schools in Nigeria!

They need to understand that many of the people leaving Nigeria for the UK are those who are tired of the country Nigeria which Britain contributed in making a mess of!

Why ona dey fear

Africa fear not for thou shall not be deported
Because your light and prayer has be heard since 2023 when a drug lord stole the mandate
Look very well and see your prayer with the king

They should ban people of a certain religion. They will block major roads to pray to a God that couldn't help them build their own country.

1. It was councillorship elections. Councillors are responsible for deliberating issues in their respective councils, such as street potholes filling, budgeting for the council, policing matters, etc. They have no powers over immigration policies. General elections fall due by 2029, except the Prime Minister gets forced to call an early election.

2. The election was not held throughout the country

3. Some of the winners under the Reform party are not fit to hold office. For example one winner is currently on holiday in Thailand, as he said he was no longer interested in running, another winner resigned immediately upon winning, while another is nowhere to be found. Many of the Reform winners (includes kids who just finished their A-levels) just went in to try their luck and catch cruise. Dumb voters just cast votes for Reform even when they did not know much about the candidate.

4. So you have the same phenomenon where naïve voters led by "beer-parlour a.k.a pub experts" were casting votes for Reform, even when they did not know who the candidate was, just like in Nigeria where voters are led by 5kg packs of rice and loaves of bread to cast votes for party logos, even when common sense should tell them that the candidate would be a massive fail. In the UK, the Reform voters simply swallow the immigration propaganda fed to them by Nigel Farage. The same knave who led them to Brexit, for which they're still paying the price and reconsidering their decision.

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

It's not new. Not the first time it would happen that a ruling party would lose massively in local election. I don't see Reform winning major election. Even the Green Party did better than Labour in the local election

You have said it all. Most folks dont know that the general election is not until 2029. Also, reform gained lots of councillor seats but only control fewer councils than labour and Libdem in England. Also, Reform was rejected in scotland. The general election might be different because most reform councillors will flop.

Kai, you are too smart. In fact, you need to hold a seminar for Nigerians in the UK becos the mumism is too much amongst them. Most have already bought houses in a nation they weren't sure was going to give them their UK passport but when they were told (by the smart ones) to invest all their earnings in their country they proved stubborn. They refused to see the world's hostility going on towards blacks. They only saw what they chose to see.

A lot of Nigerians will be returning home to nothing. Only a small percentage remembered to invest back home, the others swore that Naija was a sh*thole and they would never return.

They even swore that they wouldn't leave until they made back the money they spent to arrive in the UK.

It's such a sad story. Especially cos a lot of families were broken by japa. From cheating, to paternity fraud... deportation of partners, selfish planning, refusal to return together etc.

My boy's marriage packed up too, when he paid for his wife to relocate to the UK.

Generalizing is not good for critical thinking and logical arguments.

First of all the article is about Africans not only Nigerians

Secondly, not all Nigerians in the UK support Tinubu.

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.”

https://theafricamedia.com/uk-immigration-anxiety-grows-among-africans-after-reform-council-election-victories/
Anti-immigration is ongoing in many so-called developed countries of the world (Japan, United States, United Kingdom, Canada, SA, Ghana, Kenya, UAE, etc), with many of their folks getting tired of being swooped upon by especially undocumented foreigners... Those who are naive about these FACTS and stubbornly want to leave their countries of birth should keep that in mind. Period.
