The woman filmed a video narrating her experience with the German authorities. According to her, she was deported from Germany under grueling conditions alongside her three children after 14 years of living there.
The Nigerian Diaspora Commission has said that after thorough investigation by the Commission, these are the facts of the matter;
The woman identified as Ms. Joy Emovon lived in Italy for years where she had a child. She was subsequently deported from Italy, later relocated to Switzerland where she had another child, from Switzerland she moved back to Italy, then subsequently to Germany where she had another child and lived for a few years.
Neither she nor her kids are German citizens, as German law does not automatically confer citizenship on foreigners born in Germany.
Ms. Emovon applied for asylum status in Germany and was denied, with the denial of her asylum, continuous stay in Germany became virtually impossible.She then took advantage of the IOM voluntary assistance program which encourages irregular migrants to return to their countries , with a financial support of between €1000 – €2000.
Based on that decision, she was given an Emergency travel certificate from the Nigerian embassy and subsequently put on a flight back home.
The claims that her hands and legs were handcuffed are not true.
The Nigerian Diaspora Commission while sympathizing with Ms Emovon’s plight particularly her three children, stated that “it is important to put out the facts so as not to mislead the public.” Chairman of the Commission, Abike Dabiri Erewa said, “We continue to appeal to Nigerians to obey the laws of other lands, while Government continues to provide an enabling environment for its citizens.”

Where is the Father or Fathers of the Children.
don't you read in between the lines that she had a kid in Italy, flew to Switzerland, gave birth to the second and the last kid in Germany, so what do you think her motive was? . She was trying to secure citizenship for the kids as to prevent deportation since she was illegally living in these 3 countries, but it backfired..

Thanks for the update. I knew it from the very beginning, that she wasn't honest with her stories. After all these lies, I wonder how the German Authorities would view and react to other similar cases like hers.

I knew she was lying from the first second herself and that illiterate interviewer started their useless story. I even promised my wife she would be exposed within days. The poor kids are just the victims of her whims

Abike my dear, was she offered the 1000 to 2000 Euros before her deportation? If not, how do they want her to cope with three kids and without money? The federal government should rehabilitate her. After all, if Nigeria is conducive, she would not have taken such risk moving from one country to the other, begging for asylum.
