The doors to ireland firmly shut.

Men there i was getting ready for work this morning and ki ni mo gbo? (What did i hear).
This lady on the news calmly announces that non EU spouses of non-Irish EU citizens who are in Ireland are to be deported. Haaaa what did they do?

Is this not a vast change from the former free for all (give birth in Ireland and become a citizen). Abeg my people their economy has boomed and recovered from the 'war days'. So they are kindly saying that non citizens (even though their country was rebuilt with the help of the said migrants when their own citizens ran ot the US), should stop coming over. They have tightened their immigration laws like whoa.

Itis not just us africans o!!! as you can see. It is anyone non EU. So if you go marry EU citizen you ain't safe at all and it guarantees you nothing.

Abeg lets make our country better o so this people can stop the shakara they are doing. It just down right irritates me. So if you are out there and are looking for a place to give birth, go to St.Francis in Ikoyi or premier hospital in VI. Avoid all the abroad drama cause at the end of the day both you and your kid get nothing. I pray for the days of our fathers where they snubbed citizenship of other countries (UK and US alike) cause their country was doing so much better.


Anyways read below for the article.


The Immigrant Council of Ireland has said 2,000 people could be affected by the State's plan to deport the non-EU spouses of EU citizens from outside Ireland if the spouses are living here illegally.
The Department of Justice stated it had the right to deport non-EU spouses following a High Court ruling two months ago.
The ruling affects people from outside the European Economic Area - made up of the 27 EU member states and four other nations - who have married an EU citizen who is not Irish.

The ICI says that 'huge disruption' has been caused to people who came to Ireland in good faith and who are being refused permission to live here.
Speaking on RTÉ Radio's Morning Ireland, solicitor Derek Stewart said if the purpose of the move was to crackdown on convenience marriages, it would be to the detriment of the majority who were genuine couples.
The Department of Justice issued notices of intention to deport following a court ruling.
In June the High Court ruled that the Department of Justice had the right to insist that wives or husbands of non-Irish EU citizens, who were not from the EU themselves, must live legally in another member state before moving to Ireland.
That judgment is being appealed in the Supreme Court but in the meantime the Department has issued deportation notices informing the non-EU spouses living in Ireland of the implementation.
The section 3 letters give those under threat of deportation three options: to leave voluntarily; to agree to be deported; or to make representations to stay in Ireland temporarily within the next 15 days.
