In the video below, Franklin Garry and his family tell the story of their journey to Canada in 2017. His wife, Ibinabo and two of their children, Nicole and Preye, shared stories about the beauty of multiculturalism in Canada and the role of student-teacher relationships for a better future.
Also, Samusideen Kazeem, an Immigration consultant, shares statistics about Nigerian migrants to Canada between 2015 and 2019; Ibinabo Garry talks about the
pitfalls of the immigration journey for Nigerians.
The High Commissioner of Nigeria to Canada, Ambassador Adeyinka Asekun, in the video, also calls for caution and due diligence in the application process and Immigration consultant, Samusideen, further addresses the prospects for 2022 as more Nigerians take advantage of Canada's Immigration levels plan.
