A Nigerian, Adeyemi Opebiyi, has sued the United Kingdom for allegedly turning him back from entering the country over his inability to properly draw his company’s logo after he had been granted a visa and had flown from Nigeria to the Manchester Airport.<\/p>\n

Opebiyi said on arriving at Manchester Airport on March 14, 2021, he was stopped by the UK Immigration official, who insisted that he must be interviewed before he could be allowed into the UK.<\/p>\n

According to PUNCH, Opebiyi, who described himself as the Head of Operations, Sabi Micro Finance Bank Ltd, claimed that he was made to wait for eight hours at the immigration<\/a> desk before he was eventually interviewed by an Immigration officer, who asked him to draw the logo of Sabi Micro Finance Bank Ltd, among other things, as a way of verifying his claim that he works with the financial institution.<\/p>\n

Opebiyi alleged that after drawing the logo as best as he could, the Immigration officer told him that the drawing was not good enough and he would be denied entry into the UK<\/a> on that basis and related reasons.<\/p>\n

He claimed that he was subsequently detained for 10 days before he was finally deported to Nigeria on March 24.<\/p>\n

He said in response to his request for the review of the decision, he got a letter from the UK Home Office, reading: \u201cYou were asked to draw Sabi Micro Finance Bank LTD\u2019s logo: What you drew bore little resemblance to the logos found on all the official paperwork you submitted for your visa application.<\/p>\n

\u201cFurthermore, you were initially unable to state the correct names of the current Chairperson and Managing Director of Sabi Micro Finance Bank Ltd. This is something a Head of Operations would know. You were also unable to describe the core values and mission of Sabi Micro Finance Bank Ltd as described on its website.\u201d<\/p>\n

In the suit filed on his behalf by UK-based Nigerian lawyer, Mr Femi Aina, a Senior Consultant Solicitor with Martynsrose Solicitors, UK, Opebiyi is demanding damages for what he termed the unlawful and humiliating treatment meted out to him by the UK Immigration officers.<\/p>\n

The suit was filed upper Tribunal (Immigration and Asylum chamber) UK, with the Secretary of State for Home Department (UK) named as the sole respondent to the suit.<\/p>\n

In the court papers, Opebiyi\u2019s lawyer said, \u201cThe applicant spent 16 hours on his flight to London (Lagos-Doha-Manchester). He was held for about eight hours by the respondent for further examination. He was interviewed after eight hours\u2019 waiting and was asked to draw the company logo. Despite the fatigue and the flight stress, he tried his best possible to draw the company\u2019s logo. The respondent\u2019s action is oppressive as it does not have regard for his well-being.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe applicant showed his ID card, his MD confirmed his employment. The letter dated 9th April, 2018 and the one dated 12 August, 2020 from the CBN relates to his employment. His bank statement shows regular salary payment. All the above are relevant evidence regarding his employment. The respondent\u2019s decision that he was not employed, or that false information was used in obtaining his visa, is wrong.<\/p>\n

\u201cBy reason of the matters aforesaid, the applicant was unlawfully detained and deprived of his liberty for 10 days at Immigration Detention Centre (Colynbrook) from the date of his arrival, 14th March 2021 up to the date of his removal i.e. 24 March, 2021.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe respondent has acted in a way that is incompatible with the applicant\u2019s rights under the European Convention on Human Rights, contrary to Section 6(1) as a public authority carrying out Immigration Control.\u201d<\/p>\n

Opebiyi, who described the experience as the worst in his life, said, \u201cI was humiliated and distressed about the whole matter. A week after returning to Nigeria I could not go to work as I was mentally unstable. I have never stayed in detention in my life. The whole experience is affecting me psychologically till now. Anytime I hear detention or see anything about the UK, I cringe. I lost my savings on a fruitless journey to the UK. I am a victim of injustice.\u201d<\/p>\n

The applicant, through his lawyer, said he was entitled to a claim of between \u00a35,000 and \u00a320,000, with interest.<\/p>\n

He explained that he lost a total of \u00a31,593.00 from the cost of flight ticket, taxi fare to the airport in Nigeria, Administrative Review fees that he paid in the UK and the legal fees he paid to the lawyer who processed the Administrative Review for him.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe claimant is entitled to interest pursuant to Section 69 County Courts Act 1984 on any sums due to him at such rate as the court shall think fit,\u201d the lawyer said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
