The Nigeria High Commissioner in London, Mr Olukunle Bamgbose, has challenged the migration and removal policy of the UK Government, which is set to deport 29,000 Nigerians.
Bamgbose gave four conditions that should be met by the UK immigration office before the commission could accept the migration and deportation agenda.
- First, we must ensure that they are really Nigerians;
- they are medically fit to travel;
- all the legal processes must have been completed
- they have role to play in Nigeria.
“You do not expect someone who has not been to Nigeria for 30 years to 40 years, and does not have any family and you want to deport him.
“He will constitute social problems to us in Nigeria; so these are the sore points at this moment that we have,’’ the envoy said.
