CREDIBILITY: Nigerian Refugee Claims in Canada

By Charles Mwewa

Nigerians face credibility issues in their refugee claim bids. Credibility is the issue regardless of whether the claim arises in any of the following areas: Female genital mutilations (FGM), sexual-orientation, or traditional (or cultural) chieftain inheritance. The three elements of a refugee claim or protection, vis- -vis, founded fear of persecution, internal flight alternatives (IFA), and state protection, may constitute plenary issues. However, credibility is always presumed in Nigerian refugee claims until rebutted. Credibility is, thus, the central issue in most Nigerian claims. This book offers solutions to the credibility problems of refugee claimants from Nigeria and countries with similar background like Nigeria.
