After
being reprimanded for illegally entering from Brazil, a Nigerian
national has been given 24 hours to leave the Guyana (a sovereign state
on the northern mainland of South America)
A Nigerian national was on April 5th given 24 hours to leave the
Guyana (a sovereign state on the northern mainland of South America)
after he was reprimanded for illegally entering from Brazil.
Chief Magistrate Ann McLennan ordered Immanuel Dennis-Derry who
lives in Sao Paulo, Brazil, to leave Guyana after he pleaded guilty to a
charge of illegal entry. The city court heard that on March 27, at
Lethem, Rupununi, Dennis-Derry, a trader, entered Guyana without
presenting himself to an immigration officer.
Police Prosecutor Neville Jeffers told the court that 24-year-old
Dennis-Derry, although a Nigerian national, acquired citizenship in
Brazil, where he is currently living. On March 27, Dennis-Derry came to
Guyana in a vehicle and did not present himself to the nearest
immigration officer, the prosecutor added.
Jeffers also told the court that Dennis-Derry was arrested in New
Amsterdam, Berbice, where the police checked his passport and noticed
that he hadn’t presented himself to an immigration officer.
Dennis-Derry was subsequently reprimanded and discharged by the
Chief Magistrate, who gave him 24 hours to leave Guyana and go back to
Brazil.
