Nigerians in the United Kingdom have been advised against buying the ‘fake identity card’ which the Commonwealth Liberation party chaired by Alexia Thomas, claims will prevent them from being deported from the UK.
Yemisi Jenkins MBE, who spoke alongside the head of the Home Office immigration enforcement team at an immigration workshop sponsored by the All Progressives Congress UK, described a case where a man had ignorantly paid £2,000 for the ID but it didn’t change his status to that of a settled person in the UK.
Alexia Thomas claims the card will exempt holders from deportation, however, Jenkins one of those that were awarded an MBE this year lambasted those behind the scheme. She said they were “capitalising on people’s vulnerability.”
While addressing the guest on Friday (February 19), Jenkins MBE questioned “why Ghanaians or Indians who were also part of the Commonwealth were not involved in the scheme. How come it is just Nigerians that are aware of the ID card?” she asked.
