Canada Embassy Denies Requesting for 1Million Migrants from Nigeria
The news making round that the government of Canada has asked President Muhammadu Buhari to allow one million Nigerians to work in that country has been denied.
The High Commission of Canada in Nigeria said it is fake news.
The High Commission in its official Twitter handle, @CanHCNigeria, said “If you see a story online about moving to Canada that seems too good to be true – shine your eyes well-well.”
“If you’ve seen this link on your social media timeline, don’t fall for it. “This story is not true.
The Commission said Canada had employed 4,200 Nigerians in 2017, a figure it described as nearly double the figure for the previous year.
