Home Office In Threat To Deport Disabled Man To Nigeria After 38 Years In UK by omojoibo: 3:53am On May 20 |
A disabled man who has lived in the UK for 38 years has been threatened with removal from the UK by the Home Office. Anthony Olubunmi George, 61, came to the UK at the age of 24 in 1986 from Nigeria. He has not left the UK since and has no criminal convictions. In 2019, he had two strokes, which left him with problems with speech and mobility. The Guardian also reported on the case of Nelson Shardey, 74, a newsagent from Merseyside who has lived in the UK since 1977 and was refused indefinite leave to remain by the Home Office despite being in the country for most of his adult life. When George arrived, Margaret Thatcher was prime minister and Rishi Sunak is the ninth to hold office since George has lived in the UK. He has endured many periods of homelessness and says he has lost count of the number of friends who have given him shelter over the years. He says he no longer has any close family in Nigeria. https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/article/2024/may/19/home-office-in-threat-to-deport-disabled-man-to-nigeria-after-38-years-in-uk

Hmmm ... this is what happens in when one be living in these countries illegally. For 5 years or 55 years ... no difference .... status remains illegal and when caught .... deportation processing begins. If he lived a clean and productive life... then he can plead through lawyers or politicians to be exempted. I believe both will. 1 Like 1 Share
