A Nigerian man, Chinenye Alozie, was sentenced to two years of house arrest by a provincial court in Winnipeg, Canada, for helping over 60 foreigners, primarily students, enter the country illegally by forging bank records and other documents.

PostNGR gathered that he pleaded guilty to acting as an unauthorized immigration consultant and misrepresenting facts in immigration applications, offences under the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act.

The court heard that he advertised his services online and used his personal credit cards to pay the government fees of 61 immigration applicants between 2014 and 2018.

He was also ordered to pay a $29,000 fine.

I've always had an unwavering passion for technology and the digital world as someone who wears many hats such as blogger, website developer, article writer, and SEO specialist. However, I firmly believe that sports, particularly football, play a crucial role in promoting fitness and an active lifestyle. That's why I've always found time for football, whether it's playing on the field or being an ardent supporter.
