As the deadline issued to President Muhammadu Buhari to shut London
Nigerian High Commission draws near, more Nigerians living in the United
Kingdom have pitched their tent with the movement, vowing to carry out
their threat.
On Monday, a Nigerian-born Britain-based human rights activist,
Professor Alexia Thomas, issued a 72-hour ultimatum to President Buhari
calling for a closure of the Nigerian High Commission in United Kingdom
or face the wrath of Nigerians living there.
She warned the Federal Government that if the threat was not heeded,
it was pretty certain that the Nigerian House in the UK would be torched
by Nigerians living in that country, in protest against their
sufferings, which she attributed to the complicity of Nigerian diplomats
there.
In an interview with journalists in London, Thomas manipulated the
High Commission in issues relating to unchecked corruption, fraud,
illegal arrest, criminal torture of Nigerians arrested and detained in
various British Immigration Centres in the UK; Nigerians who are
awaiting deportation.
She also alleged that officials of Nigerian High Commission trade
every Nigerian deportee for the sum of £3,000 with the operatives of the
UK Border Agency.
She maintained that there was a conspiracy between British
Immigration and the UK Border Agency which led to her prison notes, for
fighting for Nigerians’ freedom.
She had said, “President Buhari should honour our 72-hour ultimatum
and shut down the Nigerian High Commission, if not, no one should be
held responsible when Nigerian protesters and angry Nigerians set
Nigerian House on fire. If Buhari refuses to heed our advice, then,
don’t blame us in any way.
“I ask the High Commission’s officials to resign, in the next 72
hours, because the Nigerian uprising commence, shortly. And if the
Nigerian uprising stands, the Nigerian House in UK will need to be
closed down,” she said.
According to her, while she had been working, relentlessly, to put a
stop to the deportation of Nigerians and other citizens of the
Commonwealth nations, officials of the Nigerian High Commission in the
UK are adding to the plights of Nigerians in the country.
“I received a phone call from some distressed Nigerians already
detained by British Immigration that a Nigerian lady called Mrs. Ngere, a
Deputy Immigration Officer at Nigerian High Commission, came into
British Immigration Detention Centre and told the Nigerians there to
return to Nigeria.
“Unfortunately, she issued traveling document (TC) to British
immigration to deport Nigerians, even after they (the Nigerians)
protested against it. We believe Ngere could not have come there so
boldly without the support of her boss (Chief Immigration Officer).
Our investigation confirmed that the British Government are not aware
of this scandal, as names of these detained Nigerians to be deported
are written on the UK Border Agency document showing every deported
Nigerians were handed the sum of 3,000 pounds each, as this sum was
always collected and seized by officials of Nigerian High Commission,
while deported Nigerians are never allowed to remove their property nor
given a dime,” Thomas alleged.
