The story has been told of a man whose
deportation from the UK saved him from jail.
A Nigerian man on Twitter shared the story
of how deportation from the UK saved the
man who might have gone to jail.
Tweeting via his handle @Gbengawemimo,
the Nigerian man said a Christian brother
residing in the UK had travelled to Nigeria for
his mother’s 70th birthday celebration.
However, on his return to the UK, he
discovered that his passport had gone
missing. He was immediately sent back to
Nigeria. Upon his arrival, his pastors and
others pointed accusing fingers at his
enemies tagged as ”village people”.
The young man later realised that him being
sent back to Nigeria prevented him from
being arrested and detained in the UK.
Read the story below: ”A Christian brother
travelled to the UK, he disembarked from the
plane to discover his international passport
with 5 years visa had been stolen or missing.
He complained to the officials, they tried
everything they could for him. The document
was not found. He was returned to Nigeria.
People started shouting “Village people”.
About six pastors and even the ones he knew
in the UK before traveling to Nigeria all saw
the hand of the enemy. This brother started
moving from one pastor to the other seeking
a solution to the “village people” after him.
His younger sister brought him to one of our
programmes He told me everything I asked
him if he was a born again Christian He said
yes What do you do in the UK He said he
was a barber and he had a thriving practice
Where do you live? He mentioned the
location, he said he was sharing
Accommodation with about 20 other people
They all troop out to work during the day and
come in late at night to sleep and troop out
again Some of the guys living with him are
into drug, some into fraud et.
I started laughing I asked him if he had called
any of those guys since he got deported He
said no I asked why? He said he didn’t want
everybody to know he was in a jam I said
please call one of them This was in 2018
June! He had been in the UK since 1998 and
only came to Nigeria in 2018 to celebrate his
mother’s 70th Birthday.
He placed the call, the Person that picked
filled him in about a police raid that
happened in their house three days after the
day he was supposed to have returned to the
UK The police and other agencies went to
raid their house in the middle of the night
and everyone was in jail.
The brother couldn’t Close his mouth He was
just stammering Many so called pastors are
wired to pronounce negative stuff and project
fear and evil If indeed God is your father, he
could subject you to a minor inconvenience
in order to preserve you from a huge mess!
The brother’s passport was found and mailed
to him in Nigeria by an air hostess He
eventually married the lady last year and they
are both living in the USA now. None of those
“village people announcers” saw that coming!
When you’re in Christ, you either walk in the
light or you walk in denial of the light!”
Not everything bad is village people-related –
