Nekpen Obasogie: Master's Thesis




I submitted my Master's Thesis (two-year master's of social work) on April 24th,  2019 at York University.

The actual article is pending for publication. Meanwhile, I will like to share this quote from the paper
The Canadian government has implemented a variety of discriminatory immigration policies over these years in order to exclude some groups of refugees from entering the country. Despite the Liberal criticism of the previous Conservative government, the same pattern of exclusionary refugee policy is entrenched under the current administration of Justin Trudeau’s Liberal government. The recent quest to impede Nigerian refugees from entering Canada reflects the many previous immigration and/or refugee policies that have restricted refugees from exercising the freedom of mobility right to enter the country. (Obasogie, 2019, p. 6)
