The mother, having been granted a study visa, made the decision to move to the UK in pursuit of higher education opportunities. However, upon arrival with her husband and five children, she was confronted with the reality that she needed to secure a post-graduate visa to be eligible to work in the country, a process that required a significant sum of money.
As a result, the mother has been unable to contribute financially to the family’s expenses, leaving her husband as the sole breadwinner.
According to the Gistreel, the situation has taken a toll on the family’s mental and emotional well-being. The creditors who lent her money in Nigeria are incessantly calling her, expecting repayment now that she is in the UK.
However, with no means of income and mounting bills, the family is facing an uncertain and distressing future.
Despite their efforts to secure funds, the woman has been unable to complete her school fees, putting her educational aspirations at risk.
