A Bolans mother is making an emotional plea to immigration authorities to review the deportation of her children’s father, arguing that the move has left their young family distressed and struggling to cope.

Her work not only informs but also inspires, making her a respected voice in the field.
I’m sorry to hear dear but I think this move was made in the best interests of the nation rather one’s family. The era we’re living in today makes having a criminal offense, automatically gets you deported especially if ur a repeat offender and non national..
Hold it strong sister, you’ll pull through
Sorry but that would be a bad precedent! Had this been a case of merely overstaying, I might empathize, but this Jamaican deportee HAS managed to build himself a serious criminal record here in Antigua. Concern for his children should have his #1priority before disrespectfully breaking our laws. You are right where you literally belong!
He has another chance. Another chsnce where he comes from. He csn simply send for the woman and the childten to be with him. Tap dey ah yard. Nuh cum back yah. Ah junk you junk?
I know this young lady and she is a very nice and jovial person. They should deport the hype fathers in the street that are working and still not taking care of their kids..the same ones who used women to come here to kotch.
Wrong is wrong. He knew he had kids to take care of; he should’ve stayed out of trouble.
I understand how you may feel, but at the end of the day, enough is already going on in this small island. We don’t need others coming in to make it worse.
Wrong a wrong what message we sending even though you commit a criminal offense once you have children we will not deport you gwarn go a social transformation for assistance sorry if I sound harsh
What crime have I committed i dont kill no one i never steal anything i have turned in gun that they came to rob my step dad with by our cook shop half once off weed or 21 grams is crime who messing the country is u all antiguan theift and u all not putting them where they should go them mek u all have so much that no body can run a business with out getting rob I am a contractor I have my education I work everyday
There is lots of in Jamaica right now.
The rebuilding requires manpower.
He will find work
If we allow him reentry we may find you dead like the woman at Cashew Hill, Althea.
You are confessing that what he is doing may not be legal however you want him back.
Is that the love you have for this country?
Your eyeware doesn’t look like it was prescribed.
That’s why you are probably seeing blurred.
Go back to the eye specialist
Antigua is better off without the likes of him
If he comes back we may find dead people.
Miss did you tell the police that he had a gun and ammunition?
Is was a small part of Jamaica that was damaged.
He can work and support his children from there just like when Antiguans go to the US.
Immigration did you a favor. What kind of values he was imparting to the children? The weed and criminal culture?
First of all why is he here for soooo long n have no Status here n how can u ask to give him a chance wen he have so many chances 5 or more by now that we might not know
The time his muda min tek a cuss ppl wen he young she should a look bout he papers

Aryou just gimme one break see!!!! Dis gyal haffu crazy.

Sorry! but he should think about his children first, before going and commiting crimes in our country. He can support his children from Jamaica too, just like I am doing, supporting mines from Canada.
Cases like this expose the tension between policy enforcement and compassion. This is heartbreaking. On one hand, the law is the law, rules exist for a reason, and ignoring them can set dangerous precedents. On the other hand, you can’t help but feel for the kids caught in the middle. They didn’t break any rules, and now their lives are turned upside down because of something beyond their control.
She and the children can go joined him in Jamaica 🇯🇲. She should have married the man so he could be legal in Antigua. Plenty construction jobs available now in Jamaica—people and businesses are rebuilding from the hurricane damaged.
I am a Jamaican living hete for over 15 yrs and was NEVER in any problem with the law! I am not condoning any wrong doers, if they must go, they must indeed go! No one want to bring down their country! I don’t like how some of you talking as if Jamaica is the worst! Bad people are everywhere! Good and bad!If he is a nuisance to society, then he must leave! Please don’t judge everyone the same!
Never a dull place in antigua and barbuda and somehow antigua.news find these wako stories to tell. So if I am correct the lady believes we should habour a criminal because she is worried she wont get child support money? Well alright!
