A former Senator who represented Kaduna Central in the Red Chamber, Shehu has expressed worries over apparent “institutionalised humiliation” of African countries through obnoxious immigration policies, which he attributed to rise of the far right.
He wrote via X;
Canada has ended its ten year automatic visa to Nigerians and other nationals. Many countries in the west are tightening their entry gates against Africans who want to immigrate, relocate, study or work.The far right are on the rise.They don’t do that to the Saudis, Qataris, Koreans, Chinese or the Japanese.The message is clear; Your country is where you belong. We make it better or we continue to face this systemic rejection and institutionalised humiliation.
