2 Nigerian students back home after over a year in hiding in Canada

You guys remember the two Nigerian girls who have been in trouble with
immigration authorities in Canada since June 2012 after they were
caught working in Walmart? The girls, who were students of University
of Regina, had student visas which only permitted them to work only on
campus and not outside. They didn't know working outside campus was
not permitted under the terms of their student visas and when they
were caught, they were put under a deportation order.

(Read the full story here ) Victoria Ordu and Favour Amadi (pictured
above), have been in hiding for more than a year and took refuge in
four different city churches hoping that the Canadian authorities will
forgive them...but that didn't happen. The authorities refused to
budge and the girls had no choice but toreturn to Nigeria.

They left Saskatchewan yesterday Friday Oct 18th. They were scheduled
to get on a plane to Nigeria last night, so they should be here by
now..

According to the BBC, the University of Regina President, Vianne
Timmons, was at the airport to say good-bye to the ladies.

Timmons said the girls left voluntarily in the hope that doing so
would allow them to return to Canada later. The University is vowing
to help the students come back.
