This small peripheral island continues to attract more Nigerian asylum seekers
than any other country in the world! This, despite the fact that there are no
direct transport links in existence between the two or even despite the lengthy
and expensive journeys necessary to get here.

For example, Ireland over the past seven years has processed 250% more Nigerian
asylum applications than did the UK., a country which by the way does operate
regularly scheduled air connections. What is all the more bizarre is the fact
that 80% of Nigerian asylum applicants reportedly turn up here claiming to have
no passports!
