Microbiologist, with a specialism in infection control, Charles Oti has spent four years working for the NHS. Following the breakdown of his relationship with an EU national, Oti’s residence permit was revoked without his knowledge and after returning to the UK from a trip to Nigeria, he was detained at the border and ordered to leave. “It is difficult to understand why the Home Office would want an individual with such vast experience in infection control to be forcefully removed from the UK during a pandemic." says Maria Petrova-Collins. "We hope that the Home Office reviews this matter compassionately and properly considers the evidence put to them."
