    (I know there's another thread but it's locked)...

    Heard it on Newstalk there.. She was taken to the airport and flown back to Nigeria this morning... I wonder how much she cost the state in total... There's got to be a better way to deal with faux-asylum cases like this surely..

    She tried to stay here by clearly fraudulent means and had a comfortable lifestyle back home. In doing so besmirched those who legitimately require refugee status. Shameful.

    Bye Pamela...

    she should be made pay back what she cost us, she well enough off to do so


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,109 ✭✭✭Cavehill Red


    Lessons must now be learnt.
    The system needs streamlined utterly. One appeal only, no entitlement to legal aid beyond that. This harridan has cost the Irish state millions.

    Hope she has opend the deportation flood gates for the 99% bogus lot...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 247 ✭✭Tweeter


    Personally, I'd have preferred if she'd done some jail time first and then deported.

    and cost us even more

    Yes, already cost us a fortune, what's another few quid.
    And it will send out the right message for those who try and follow in her footsteps.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 23,718 ✭✭✭✭JonathanAnon


    It certainly sets a dangerous predecent.. It appears that if you arrive here with a bogus asylum claim, you will be put up for free and given free legal aid... And even if you are found to have lied and falsified documentation, you will still be allowed to have your case taken to Europe...

    All it does is encourage every other "asylum seeker" to lie through their teeth to convince the Irish authorities to let them stay... The second she was found to have lied she should have been dumped out of the country..

    We should not be taking in people on "asylum" full stop, we have our own problems to deal with. The reality is of course that nothing will be done, nothing will be learnt and the same thing will happen over and over again.

    She was flown directly to Lagos at 5.30 while under arrest. To asylum shop she will have to get back into Europe from Nigeria. Her picture will now be in every Airports immigration database, from here to Timbuktoo, so she may have difficulty in doing it.

    Well if you want to start a campaign to remove the states signature from the various protocols to the Geneva convention, fire away.

    If someone is refused asylum in one EU country, do they have the right to make an asylum claim in another?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,474 ✭✭✭Crazy Horse 6


    Horrible human being. Delighted she's gone.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,207 ✭✭✭Murt10


    Surprised she didn't get herself pregnant while here.

    I'll play devil's advocate here, I'm delighted the authorities pursued this to the bitter end and fcuked her out for being the lying cheating bitch that she is but......
    wouldn't we all do the same and more if we thought it could give our children a leg up in life?
    Just a thought.

    It wouldn't give her any entitlement to residency, so why would she bother doing it?

    But aparently their lives in Nigeria were realtively comfortable.

    She took a chance of bluffing the system and got caught.

    Now she back to her ordinary, non threatening life in Nigeria...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 19,986 ✭✭✭✭mikemac


    Rosanna Flynn and Residents against Racism were all over the radio shows a few years ago. Very active
    I've almost forgotten about her at this stage, maybe their group have been shut down

    Or maybe they walked away seeing the fraudulent documents and it's not something they wanted to be back


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,114 ✭✭✭mike kelly


    hard to believe it has finally happened, but fair paly to the Givernment for getting rid of her


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 219 ✭✭Cathal O


    I hear the Hole in the wall is the place if ya want to meet a few trainers/ jockeys through the week, its shocking packed though :/


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,857 ✭✭✭Andrew33

    Indeed, the operative phrase there is "relatively comfortable" by Lagos standards but the children would undoubtedly have had a better, infinitely safer upbringing in Ireland probably well subsidised by the Irish taxpayer as I'm sure Mom would have milked the Irish welfare system like the good Nigerian that she is.

    I'm sure she was hoping that would happen too. She did garner a lot of support locally at one time, on these sympathetic grounds.

    Spare us the generalisations please.

    We should have screened all asylum seekers more thoroughly years ago when the flood started. Now look at us, a bankrupt country handing out hundreds of millions per year to non-nationals who claimed bogus asylum.

    .
    We did and do. Thats why she ultimately didn't get in.

    How do you know that we are paying "hundreds of millions" to people who've claimed "bogus asylum"?

    If you've evidence of people who have been granted asylum based on lies etc, you should report them to the authorities.

    I think you need to consider this reply with the evidence exposed by the census and those PPS numbers. I think the difference would closer to billions of Euro and if it were possible to isolate out the AS portions, I think it's still safe to assume hundreds of millions was over spent.

    worst thing is that the taxpayer will have to foot her legal bill.
    and people are wondering why Nigeria has such a bad reputation.

    People who supported her, like Alan Shatter, should have to pay the legal bills.

    I do realise Ireland cant open its gates to all immigrants but i feel sorry for this woman and feel that a lot of the people who want her deported don't realise how lucky they are to live in a developed country.

    Not saying her actions were correct nor that she shouldn't be deported just that I wouldnt like to be in a situation where I had to return to a third world country and that if I lived in one there is a chance I would try to leave for better lands aswell.

    Unlike many other people who try to get into a developed country, PI was well off. Secondly, she dragged her children into her lie. Shes not a character worthy of sympathy.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,686 ✭✭✭✭Zubeneschamali


    I'd just like to highlight this:
    Ms Izevbekhai's own legal bill, her fifth and final solicitor Matthew Ezeani admitted would never be paid, is estimated to be in excess of €700,000

    The taxpayer is not picking up this bill, contrary to what many anti-immigrant posters suggested earlier in these threads.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29 Yellowknife


    Jaysus Zubeneschamali, he sounds like a Nigerian himself with a name like that. He has probably made enough money already from this scam that has been going on here for over a decade.
