You guys remember both Nigerian girls who have been in trouble with immigration authorities in Canada since June 2012 after these were caught employed in Walmart? The girls, have been 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 underneath the terms of these student visas and when these were caught, these 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 to come back to Nigeria. They left Saskatchewan yesterday Friday Oct 18th. They were scheduled to get on a plane to Nigeria yesterday, so they must be here by now..

In line with 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 this will allow them to come back to Canada later. The University is vowing to simply help the students come back.
