Betty Iloba family and her three children Toby, Saskia and Kevin-Emmanuel, Nationals of Nigeria and residents of  Rochdale and have been refused asylum. They are currently detained in Yarl's Wood IRC and have survived one removal attempt already.


Betty's husband was trying to arrange for the family to legally move to UK due to the threats he received because of his job as a senior police officer in Nigeria who had worked as a "Divisional Crime Officer" and a "Divisional Police Officer.

Unfortunately he was killed before they could come to the UK. After his death, Betty wanted his death to be investigated and because she was facing threats from her husband's killers. To avoid these threats, she stopped the investigation into his death and decided to come to the UK.  At the moment, the Home Office have told her and her family to leave the country but realistically, there is no place to go if they go home. They believe there is a high chance of her husband's killers coming to threaten the family again and to kill Betty but the Home Office thinks there is not enough evidence to prove this threat is real. Betty is afraid that she will be recognised due to the nature of her business and she is well known as she was a member of the Police Officers Wives Association and was the Welfare Officer of IMO State Chapter.

The children have been in the UK for almost five years and there has been a constant battle to keep the family in the UK, including sending  support letters from the children's schools to the home Office but there has been no positive outcome. Betty has struggled and overcome  many obstacles and her children have all excelled in their schools ( her daughter was made Head Girl at North Manchester High School in 2008). Betty has managed so far, to give her children a safe, happy life with the help of their school and church communities. Please sign this petition to call on the Immigration Minister to grant Betty and her children the right to remain in the UK on compassionate grounds.


Nigeria is in free fall to becoming a failed state; 22nd in 'Fund for Peace'   Failed States Index in  2006 it plummeted to 15th in 2009 a  32% decrease in living/human rights conditions in 3 years.


WAST Manchester are helping the family to campaign to remain in the UK.

I assume you're not the OP . . . and the OP has since rephrased his post in a sensible manner . . .

Bamsyle:

The issue is long past Bamsyle and the OP . . . if you had taken time to read through the thread, you'll have noticed . . . and you wouldn't have blindly stuck ya ringworm-infested nose in the matter . . .  

^^^^^^Resorting to cheap insults and high school ebonics will not advance your argument by a jot. I will not sink low and trade insults with you. Everyone else apart from you on this thread has been branded as illiterates and yet you cannot differentiate between "infested" and "infected". Infested nose?

Bamsyle:

Jackal?? Hehe . . . some peops visit this forum to keep a record of happenings - that's idleness bro . . . the fact that I decide to keep my sword until such a time when it's needed does not mean I never had the battle spirit in me all along . . . I'm not tryna be anybody, I can swing both ways . . . and next time, check the dictionary meaning of "bullying" before you post . . . when you sow the wind, you reap the whirlwind . . . can a bully be bullied??  

Beaf:

Diversity is detrimental to development. It has been proven over and over.
Clinging to one Nigeria is all just sentimental. We have never sat down to talk about the basis of our co-existence, so there is no basis for the nation. We are really only bumbling from low to lower low. Why force things?

(July 21) - The case of a 555-pound South Carolina teenager has legal and health experts throughout the country considering whether child obesity is a form of child abuse, according to a report in USA Today.
Alexander Draper, 14, is now in foster care and his mother, Jerri Gray, was arrested in June and charged with criminal neglect. Gray, 49, said she was doing all she could to help her son lose weight. Her attorney said if his client is found guilty, it would "set a precedent that opens Pandora's box."

South Carolina mom Jerri Gray faces felony child neglect charges over her son, Alexander Draper, 14, who weighs 555 pounds. They made national headlines when they were reported missing in May, and were found later that month in Baltimore. Gray told CBS News that she works late shifts, which leaves her little time to prepare healthy meals for her son.

Kobojunkie:

So you do admit that there are islamists and then there are Islamic extremists but in the same breath you lop all Northerners into the category of Islamic extremists? I am sorry, but aren’t you getting confused right about now?

Kobojunkie:

Again, it is not about coexistence holding water NOW, it has been that way for decades. Open your eyes to see that prior to all this nonsense we seem to be pushing online, Hausas and yorubas have been coexisting with no problems. I know at least 2 ibo men married to hausa woman, and at least one Yoruba gal married to an hausa man. Not sure why you suddenly want to paint a picture of these groups having some force that keeps them from ever coming together.

Kobojunkie:

You really are asking me why we have militants in Nigeria? Never mind the corruption, the government constantly ignoring the needs of the people and trampling on the rights of our kids everyday, you mean the only way you can make sense of OPC, MEND, Arewa and the likes is when you bring religion and ethnic differences to the table?  Is it really any wonder why the problems persist?

Kobojunkie:

About religion, doesn't the fact that there are Islamic Yorubas and Islamic Ibos throw that argument of yours way out? I mean come on. Are you going to say you never lived near a Yoruba muslim?? Please, try to deal with root issues, rather than focusing on the hate mirror we continue to put up against those WE Are UNWILLING to deal with and accept as being our equals.

Kobojunkie:

I don't agree with you. This has little to nothing to do with those you continue to claim to be your colonial masters, even 50 years after the fact.

Kobojunkie:

Try staying in new york for about a month, and then take a trip out to montgomery alabama right after and tell me you do not get the same feeling. Lol

sunboy:

Nigeria's amalgamation was a marriage of inconvenience ,  only GOD fit unite us, since Britico style no work.

hectorswag:

it's nobody's fault we're surrounded by people who know no other way to express their views without raking contentions, its quite unfortunate!

3kay945:

i ve a muslim background and also believe islam as a peaceful religious.,so anyone that wish or force any religion on anyboby, is either insane, ignorant, stupid or devil incarnate.,.this also tell how backward the north is development and civilization. no wonder they still go around naked, it s a national problem abi what wil the world think of us, a damn! big shame on nija

generalzango:

Why can't u guyz get it,the boko haram members are just mere religious extremists with a mission that can never be accomplished.

TEXASGIRL:

Thank you all for the advice. We are working things out, but I will be very cautious from now on. By the way. He meet the other lady after our first date! He was with her two days after. Again, I normally don't cuss. Also, most American women will go thru their husbands/ lovers phone. No one I know sees anything wrong with that. They shouldn't be doing anything they don't want their partner to see, so they shouldn't have anything to hide. As far as the business goes, he owns it but she collects the money and holds it for him. Still confused about why he has to go get it? Is there not Western Union?

I don't know do u like Congoshine or wot?
