Former Kaduna Central Senator, Shehu Sani, has cautioned that if immediate action is not taken, Nigerians may face a global ban in the near future.
Sani shared this warning in a post on his official X account on Saturday, reacting to the recent deportation of Nigerians by the Canadian government.
According to DAILY POST, between January and October 2025, the country intensified its immigration enforcement at the fastest rate seen in over a decade.
In his reaction, the former lawmaker stated: “Canada has been a second home to thousands of Nigerians who live, study, or work there. It is the most welcoming country regarding immigration and accommodating Nigerians.
“The recent deportations of Nigerians from Canada serve as a wake-up call. Our unscrupulous citizens, who engage in criminal activities and abuse the kindness and generosity of the Canadian people, are damaging our country's reputation.
“We must address the actions of the few among us, or we may find ourselves banned by the rest of the world.”
