A man has narrated how he was allegedly left stranded in Canada after his wife and children relocated there ahead of him.
According to the man, he resigned from his banking job after his permanent residency was approved, but had to remain in Nigeria temporarily because his bank needed to audit his position before he could travel.
He said his wife and children travelled to Canada before him, but claimed that after his wife arrived, she blocked him and refused to provide the address where she and their children were staying.
The man said he eventually travelled to Canada in November 2014, only to find himself stranded at the airport because he could not locate his family.
He described the experience as heartbreaking, saying he had expected to reunite with his wife and children after joining them in Canada.
He said …
“I resigned as a banker when the permanent residency came. My wife and children left before me for Canada. I had to stay back in Nigeria because the bank needed to audit my position, so I couldn’t travel with them immediately. Unfortunately, when my wife got to Canada, she blocked me and didn’t give me the address where she was staying with my children. I’m heartbroken… so eventually I went to Canada in November 2014 and I was stranded at the airport. I couldn’t locate where my wife and children were staying…..”
