Ihuoma Amadi: Victoria Ordu

Wal-Mart Dept: Victoria Ordu and Ihuoma Amadi are from Nigeria, and have taken sanctuary in a Regina church for several months because they're afraid they'll be deported, according to CBC. They claim they did not know of the restriction and worked for a short time at a Wal-Mart store, but stopped as soon as they learned of the rules and two federal cabinet ministers have thrown cold water on efforts to stop two University of Regina students from being deported. They have student visas which allow them to work, but only on campus. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
