A Canadian Federal Court has upheld a landmark decision declaring Nigeria’s two dominant political parties — the All Progressives Congress (APC) and the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) — to be terrorist organisations under Canadian immigration law, while refusing asylum to former party member Douglas Egharevba.

Can’t help but wonder how he would have eventually turned out. What a loss.
