Ms Awoyemi identifies as bisexual and this is a fundamental part of her identity, she is open about her sexuality in the UK, something that would not be possible were she to return to Nigeria where she would e required to conceal her sexual identity purely to avoid persecution.
Also she has established a private and family life over the last 10 years in the United Kingdom that would not be possible to maintain were she to be returned to Nigeria. She was detained when returning from road trip to Belfast, made the arresting officer that she had been in UK for long & had pending application at Home Office, still she was forced to sign an asylum application. As an asylum seeker in London (United Kingdom) whose application has been left unattended and its destroying her. We need people to get involved in her case anyway they can.
The aim is to put some for of pressure on the UKBA-Home Office & her case owner to proceed with making a decision on her case and not continue to leave her in limbo.
We, the undersigned, call on the Home Secretary, UK Border Agency to make a decision on Olasimbo Awoyemi’s asylum claim immediately as you have been in possession of sufficient evidence to make a decision for some time now.
Meantime Ms Awoyemi should be granted permission to work, given her claim has been outstanding for over a year.
