Nigerian medic to know his fate today

LOBATSE: Nigerian medic Chiamonwu Ifeanyi Henry will know today whether the High Court will grant his urgent application to stay his deportation by the Botswana government. During court proceedings yesterday, deputy Attorney General Abraham Keetshabe dismissed the application saying that it was made in an irregular manner and Henry has no right to appeal the decision by President Festus Mogae to declare him a Prohibited Immigrant.

"Presidential declarations cannot be challenged in court," he said. Keetshabe added that Henry has failed to state why his case should be heard. He termed the Nigerian as a confused person who does not know the remedy he is seeking from the court. He said the application has no legal basis because the law states clearly that the President can decide who is an undesirable inhabitant/prohibited immigrant. He said procedures were followed when the Nigerian was declared a Prohibited Immigrant (PI).

Each of the 10 beautiful young women had supporters...
