'Please, we need a home': Nigerian migrants lament as they run away from Donald Trump’s America over anti-immigrant policies (Details, pics)

Following President Donald Trump’s anti-immigrant statements and policies, Some Nigerian immigrants are already looking for ways out of the United States.

Some of the migrants, from Nigeria, Haiti, and other countries, are reportedly trooping to Canada to seek greener pastures.

CBC News, a Canadian media outlets reported that a group of Nigerians, about 12 in numbers, were seen trying to cross to Canada, from America.

It was gathered that the Nigerian migrants had already made their way to the start of Plattsbugh's pipeline to Canada.

Plattsbugh’s pipeline is a one way-route out of the US at an unofficial border crossing that the Canadian government is having difficulties to control.

In August last year, despite Canadian government’s efforts to stop the flow of the illegal migrants, Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) says that 5,530 more asylum seekers entered Quebec near Plattsburgh, nearly double those in July and bringing the total in 2017 to 11,896.

One of the Nigerian migrants named Aisha is seen shouting as she climbed out of a taxi van: "Please, we need a home, our children need to go to school."Aisha is a single mother with four kids.

She reportedly travelled from Philadelphia to Manhattan. She then spent six hours on the bus to upstate New York and another 30 minutes by taxi to the dead end road at the border.

Almost in tears, Aisha narrated her story: She has spent almost a year in the US with no legal papers. Her landlord sent her packing as she could not get money to pay rents.

She said she had heard about the Canadian pipeline border and she's determined to get into Canada to apply for refugee status.

Aisha lamented: "I left Nigeria with frustration.... In Africa, they want them to go to Arabic school. At a tender age, they will give them to a man. I don't want that to happen."

When asked whether she believes she'll be able to stay in Canada, she says defiantly: "I can work, I'm an African woman. If I see a job, I will do it. I want a better life for my children."One of the Canadian immigration officials told some migrants at the pipeline border:"This is an illegal crossing. The official border crossing is a few kilometres from here.

"Are you aware the very minute you cross this border your status in the US is nullified?" the immigration official yelled at the huddle of people, children in their arms, clutching their suitcases.

But the immigrants defiantly replied: "We know. We want to come into Canada. Canada will help us. We have nowhere else to go," members of the group yell back.
