The Governor of Benue State, Gov Gabriel Suswam, last weekend confirmed that 100 illegal foreigners from Chad, Niger and Ghana have been arrested by the state’s command of the Nigeria Immigration Service.
Yes they should be deported.. Nonsense. Xpecially those from chad n Niger.. Flooding our country n killing pple. Bastard!! But then.. They mite not b among this dreaded set sef.. But I will take my chances wit them leaving..
So when Nigeria Immigration arrest someone they have to be displayed or treated like an arm robber. If that picture in the caption is of those illegal immigrant, Nigeria as a nation has lost it. How can you treat someone inhumanely 'cause they are illegal and you have million of Nigerian living illegally all over the world?
GHANA e no go better for una...so u people stl dey jump border enter naija, and u'll open una dirty black mouth to insult Nigerians...in short...i reserve d rest
Irrational acts like this is one of the reasons why people think Nigerians are like wild animals.
When I visit home and see the way a lot of people act, I get disgusted. Always rushing, pushing, struggling, fighting, etc..We act uncouth like these Asians especially Chinese people. When we are at home, we lack manners but na we like to feel sophisticated pass anybody. Bullsh*t
Even with the school wey some of us dey shout up and down we are still unable to think sensibly and then act like we were raised in the wilds.
This is disgusting. The fucking leaders are even more so stupid and animals. SMH.
But didn't Y'all know? That guy,Mohd.Yusuf,the Boko haram leader that was killed by police years back is from Chad now! Illegals from Chad and Niger were also caught as the infamous 2010 highway armed robbers in the North east and North central of this Country! Kano state also had a case of illegals from Niger that caused Chaos in 2008 which made headlines! There were a settlement of over 9000 pple,who had come to live and work at the outskits of a local govt in Kano! Our broaders have always been loose! It's so sad! Illegals from Togo in Lagos loads of them, illegals from Cameron living in Taraba,Adamawa and some parts of Gombe! The list is endless... It's So Sad! Lots of crime s commited by "Nigerians" are mostly not by Nigerians(although we too get our own wahala, but still) Honestly The officials are not doing enough! God help us!
Nigeria should be ashamed of its officials treating immigrants this way illegal or not.Thy are not armed robbers and should not be treated as such.There is almost no country in the world you will not find a Nigerian and regardless of their immigration status thy are treated with some dignity and respect ; there is no dignity or respect in this!

being illegal does not mean they do not have rights.SMH. Due dilligence need to be followed i.e. and not treating them like this...........we need to do better in our country.
Wow, this is just Sad, I'm a Ghanaian, but I'm legal in Nigeria. Residence and work permit,Immigration papers and all.but the immigration officers make it so difficult, I'm lucky I can afford to pay the "extra transport and commission" just to renew my legal papers every 2yrs most of these pple tied up there can't afford that kinda money, that's why they are being treated unfairly. Coz if it was just the official amount of about 3000 naira, they may have paid it. Instead of the about 50,000 I have to cough out each time . @ Shakara, do u know how many illegal Nigerians are in Ghana? Check out the electronic market there and businesses. I'm sorry u feel that way about Ghanaians. Coz I consider nigeria my home, this being my 20th year here. Although I still retain my Ghanaian citizenship. No matter what does pple don't deserve that treatment.
@ Waxy you're so right. @ sakara, your hatred for Ghana is almost palpable and it will consume you. idiot! have you thought about the number of nigerians also living in ghana illegally? and if i may ask what is the colour of your mouth - white, green, purple or blue? nonsense
Do we have borders in najia but toll gate! you pay cash and you pass! even sef, if you can't afford it, it can be negotiated....abegi!you better return 'em back by sea no gas ooo!and if you delay, that's means govt must provide food for 'em to eat( beans)while in custody!
Just ask them to leave and don't treat them like animals, Nigeria as a country should be above this animalistic behavior, they are looking for a comfortable abode, greener pasture. This picture is portraying Nigeria negatively.
There is no common sense or good organization in any government establishment in Nigeria. Nigeria officials are always acting in barbaric manner. They are bunch of illiterates. The immigrants should be treated with humane.
First of all, how did they even catch them? how was Nigerian immigration able to decipher who is a Nigerian and who is a foreigner?
Secondly, I do not think these African immigrants are the boko haramites that we are looking for. The real boko harams are still in our midst.
Lastly, like Waxy and others have rightly said, why should we treat these supposed illegal immigrants so harshly and inhumanely? Sometimes, I ask myself if the average Nigerian has a soul. The way we treat each other and outsiders in our midst is pathetic and calls for serious prayers and intervention. How would we we like it if we were treated like that abroad huh? Mtshew.
For all of you talking.. you are also the ones that are dying to come to America and UK. I pray they do the same too you! There's no where in the world they treat illegals like this. This is inhumane. If it was Nigerians they did that too we would start boycotting and shouting. Do unto others as you want done on to you my fellow brothers and sisters.
owon wiarey authorities. Immigration my foot. Why dont you please arrest all those lebanese and italian men that are spreading STDs all over naija. And all those european men that are sexing stupid, greedy, will do anything for money naija boys wey full caliente or watever that gay club in Lagos is. Nonsense
@Waxy, what a ridiculous thing to say- Nigerians are treated inhumanely in other countries when they are being deported- you only need to get on a KLM flight from Amsterdam to Lagos or Abuja to see what I am talking about- deportees are sent back on the same flight as normal paying passengers and the scene is distressing to say the least. What about those Nigerians who were killed in Libya??? What about Nigerians deported from South Africa without even a chance to pick up their clothes?? Kenyans hate Nigerians with a passion too, so please please think before you accuse our immigration officers of human rights abuses- they are only doing what other countries are doing to Nigerians
@Waxy and the rest...if you follow the media closely you would know that's not the picture of the actual foreigners but pictures used frequently. Even when the story of arrested Boko Haram members came out, that was the picture used. So please know that that picture is not a true representation of the event. I expected Linda to have said this or answered it.
Kudos to Mr.Gabriel but he should help the state in other areas that will better their lives,there is nothing in that state at all and busy hosting undergraduate when Arsenal his club wins and u know what follows after the party.
They are from west Africa, if they have over stayed, they should be sent back and not treated like common criminals. This is so wrong. It would have been different if they committed a crime.
totally disagree. lots of nigerian are in UK, AMERICA, SOUTH AFRICA,and all over the europe without document. even if you are arrested they don't treat you like garbage. survival is hard. please Nigerians lets have heart. I am sure it is a way for the government to chop money and claim they are spending money on defense.
i pray war dont start in nigeria,most Nigeria will want to travel to ghana,how do we want ghanian to treat us.wen we ar treating dem lik a armed robbers.cos i dont no wat dey did
We need to tighten our borders. I suspect most of the boko haram members are foreigners from other neighboring countries.
ReplyDeleteYes they should be deported.. Nonsense. Xpecially those from chad n Niger.. Flooding our country n killing pple. Bastard!! But then.. They mite not b among this dreaded set sef.. But I will take my chances wit them leaving..
ReplyDeleteSo when Nigeria Immigration arrest someone they have to be displayed or treated like an arm robber.

ReplyDeleteit seems it's only in Nigeria illegal foreigners are treated like armed robbers...
ReplyDeleteWhy do they have to be maltreated though? They are still human. Would we be happy to see illegal Nigerian immigrants abroad treated in this manner?

This is not just how you treat illegal immigrants. If other countries do it to us we will be the first to complain and scream racism.
ReplyDeleteI wish this is how they caught/ arrested the bastard leaders in Nigeria.
But didn't Y'all know? That guy,Mohd.Yusuf,the Boko haram leader that was killed by police years back is from Chad now!

ReplyDeleteHmmm
ReplyDelete@Waxy, my thoughts exactly, why are they shirtless? Really strange.
ReplyDeleteWow, this is just Sad, I'm a Ghanaian, but I'm legal in Nigeria.

Waxy you said it all.
ReplyDeleteDoes Nigeria sha? Bribery is more important to them than keeping an eye on the border.
Do we have borders in najia but toll gate! you pay cash and you pass! even sef, if you can't afford it, it can be negotiated....abegi!you better return 'em back by sea no gas ooo!and if you delay, that's means govt must provide food for 'em to eat( beans)while in custody!
ReplyDeleteJust ask them to leave and don't treat them like animals, Nigeria as a country should be above this animalistic behavior, they are looking for a comfortable abode, greener pasture. This picture is portraying Nigeria negatively.
ReplyDeleteWell, will say well done first. Our immigration officers should learn to treat pple accordingly.
ReplyDeleteMeanwhile I will be extremely satisfied if all other states follow suite. We need to clean up our system abeg.
Fashola is having tough times with Okada riders, Linda just advice him to wipe out non- Nigerians and half of his problems will be solved
Ok but thay are not criminals..this not right is human abuse.
ReplyDeleteThere is no common sense or good organization in any government establishment in Nigeria. Nigeria officials are always acting in barbaric manner. They are bunch of illiterates. The immigrants should be treated with humane.
ReplyDeleteWaxy, I support you... They shouldn't be treated in this manner
ReplyDeleteSo should those Countries treat Nigerians in their Countries in the same manner?
ReplyDeleteFirst of all, how did they even catch them? how was Nigerian immigration able to decipher who is a Nigerian and who is a foreigner?
ReplyDeleteSecondly, I do not think these African immigrants are the boko haramites that we are looking for. The real boko harams are still in our midst.
