That time Switzerland approved just one asylum application of the 1,800 requests by Nigerians in 2009.
The head of the Swiss Refugee Council said the main reason for this is that during their interviews most Nigerians tell the same “stereotypical and unbelievable” story and not the truth.
"People from aid agencies who are present at the interviews come to the same conclusions."

Nigerian asylum seekers come under pressure
The government wants to speed up the deportation of rejected asylum seekers, with those from Nigeria at the top of the list. But refugee organisations, which are insisting on due legal process, point out the complexity of the problem and warn...

Ukrainian flag to be taken down in Fermoy after letter of complaint to councillors.
"The gesture was right at the time. I agreed with it when it went up, but I think we're at the stage now where we need to take it down. For me, the Irish flag should fly there all the the time, side by side with whatever else is up there," Fianna Fáil Cllr William O'Leary said.

Mallow in Cork or Croydon in London?
They're filming a drill music video. Listen carefully and you can even make out that London patois accent they like to affect.

Everything is under attack. Even this hallmark of Irish culture.
But we still have it. It's still here. We still have moments like this, even as Ireland faces itself down a very dark path.
Great game, well and truly.

More footage & info about the brawl in Duleek.
This video suggests the violence took place at some sort of rave event and was between the gangs A92 and AV9.
A92 is a drill music collective sponsored by the Drogheda Arts Festival while AV9 is based in Balbriggan. They were also the gangs involved in this stabbing previously.
Because their gang names are derived from eircodes, the gardaí has referred to this type of violence as "eircode gang wars" as it enables them to avoid using the words African or black. Glo has spoken more plainly about the phenomenon.
Deciphering the captions in the video suggest the A92 gang (from Drogheda) brought a firearm to the fight and despite outnumbering the AV9 gang (from Balbriggan) 25 to 10, one of their members received a neck injury from a zombie knife and were forced to retreat.
'Zombie knives' are machete sized blades but come in various cartoonish shapes.
The captions tease that this knifing footage will be released shortly.

Protest in Kinnegad!
(No, the locals haven't risen up)
Asylum seekers staying at Harry's Hotel in #Kinnegad are organising a protest after receiving notice that they are to be relocated because of the colour of their skin.
That's according to a post on the facebook page 'Say No To Direct Provision in Ireland' which has been responsible for a number of hoax stories related to the direct provision system, some which have been repeated by media organisations and politicians.
It is alleged the hotel will now be used to accommodate refugees from Ukraine while the current inhabitants will be relocated to tents in counties Meath & Clare.
They always hated Kinnegad anyway, I thought? 🤔

“Owing to the large number of Ukrainian arrivals this week, the priorities have changed and the urgent need is to accommodate Ukrainians,” Minister Troy said, stating that the news had been relayed to him by officials from Minister O’Gorman’s Department of Children, Equality, Disability, Integration and Youth.
Minister Troy said the Department now proposes to use Harry's exclusively for Ukrainian families and some singles going forward.
“They would hope to start relocating existing International Protection residents from Harry’s beginning in the middle of next week.”

Harry's asylum seekers to be moved on
Late Stage Ireland
Cllr Denis Leonard was back on Midlands 103 to discuss the news that the single males occupying Harry's Hotel in #Kinnegad are to be replaced with Ukrainian refugees.
It's his function to now explain why the town is just more suited to accommodating women and children from Ukraine in order to negate accusations of racism.
Apparently the local school does have capacity for Ukrainian children because there hasn't been a house built in Kinnegad for the past 15 years so Irish people haven't been able to rear families locally. Isn't that lucky...
Leonard says there are towns more suited to accommodating 150 unvetted single male asylum seekers from Africa & the Middle East "for a short period of time". He names Athlone and Mullingar. However, it's been suggested they'll be going to camp sites in Clare and Meath. And it's never for short period either. Sounds like he still hasn't researched the asylum racket much.
Anyway, he sounds very relieved and is probably dusting off the 'refugees welcome' placards.

A violent Romanian rapist who repeatedly raped an Irish teenager with an intellectual disability on a night in the west of Ireland has been sentenced to six and a half years. He had prior offences in Germany & Romania and continues to maintain his innocence.
Costel Pirvu (39) who had been living near Loughrea was found guilty of three counts of rape and one of false imprisonment after a nine-day trial at the Central Criminal Court last year.
>Det Garda Adrian Fehily told Éilis Brennan SC, prosecuting, that the offence took place at a town in the west of Ireland in the early hours of February 4th, 2018. The woman, aged 19 at the time, had been out socialising with some friends who walked her halfway home.
>She told gardaí that she saw a man she did not know looking at her and she ran, but he grabbed her and forced her against a black jeep and then to the ground.
>The court heard he took off her pants and raped while she struggled to escape, resulting in scrapes and bruises to her arms, legs and back.
>The woman said Pirvu refused to let her go home, threatened her and forced her to go back to his apartment. She said she felt if she did not do what he wanted, he would hurt her.
>CCTV footage showed Pirvu and the victim walking back towards his apartment, where she told gardaí that he raped her a further two times and finally let her go the next morning when a friend of his walked in.
He first denied to gardaí ever meeting the teenager but subsequently said she had voluntarily gone back to his house where they had had consensual sex after he was told a semen sample matched his DNA.
>The woman said she has told her counsellor that although the bruises on the outside were healing, “something on the inside of me was broken and could never be fixed”.
>The court heard that she does not feel safe anymore and is all the time watching for who is behind her. She cannot eat or sleep properly and suffers PTSD, nightmares, flashbacks and panic attacks.
>She became very depressed and suicidal and was self-harming, telling the court that she felt that her life was no longer her own.
>The court heard that Pirvu has three previous convictions in Romania and Germany, including for robbery, attempted rape and assault.

Found the location where the brawl involving African gangs took place in Duleek.
There's a venue at the back of the local industrial estate. It goes by two names: The Nelson Mandela Hall and Crown Ventures Hall.
Here is the precise location.
Google 'Nelson Mandela Hall Duleek' and you will see it has hosted many African flavoured events. The video above is an example.
It's type of place where someone called King Anjola Mr Bravo performs for Pastor Bola's birthday. See here, here, here and here.
Pretty safe to assume an African has leased this premises and uses it to host events for Africans. Supposedly it had been hosting a grime night when the brawl occurred.
What isn't safe to assume is that they have a license to run a late night venue at the back end of an industrial estate. Wonder what the local authorities have to say...

Sunday World love the diversity gore stories to the extent they'll doorstop this specimen at work to get his picture while it would be more useful questioning the dirt who facilitated his presence in the country and the judge who suspended his sentence.
Go to Kinnegad however, talk to locals, and deliver some leaflets in the hope that the same fate doesn't befall more Irish woman and they'll concoct a hit-piece on you.
Guess it would interrupt their business model if a nationalist-minded party got elected.

They can't even figure out the nationality of a man whose been jailed for sexual assault with 15 prior convictions. Really demonstrates the extent of their vetting ability for foreigners.
Least we know where he is for the time-being.
