Summary:

This case spotlights the activities involved in the illegal immigration of Africans to Europe, and in the process highlights its entrepreneurial undertone. Using the experience of one Nigerian immigrant, the case draws attention to the factors influencing emigration out of Africa and to some of the various actions and income-generating activities involved in immigration. The income-earning enterprise activities embedded within illegal immigration events, together with issues around inclusion and exclusion of immigrants in the country of residence, are also appraised. Furthermore, the case highlights the dilemma faced by James Temedu, a recent immigrant to the United Kingdom, as he considers how to bring his family from Africa to join him, while weighing up the competing dynamics of time and finance.
