Expert Warns Nigerians Against Immigration Scams, Offers Solutions
Expert Warns Nigerians Against Immigration Scams, Offers Solutions
By Adetayo Gbolahan
In an increasingly globalized world where opportunities transcend borders, Amb. Dr. Annah Adepoju, founder of Divine Immigration and Education Consultancy LLC, is carving a niche as a trusted guide for individuals seeking to study, work, and build sustainable futures abroad.
Based in Rochester, Minnesota, United States, Dr. Adepoju’s journey into immigration consultancy is rooted in a deep passion for service and a commitment to helping people access global opportunities through legal and structured pathways. Over the years, she observed that many talented individuals, particularly from Africa, possess the education, skills, and professional experience required to succeed internationally. However, a lack of proper guidance often stands in their way.
This realization led to the establishment of Divine Immigration and Education Consultancy LLC, a certified professional consulting and document preparation agency dedicated to simplifying immigration processes while providing accurate information, ethical guidance, and transparent services. The firm focuses on legal immigration pathways, educational opportunities, and career-based migration options, helping clients navigate complex systems with clarity and confidence.
Like many professionals in the field, Dr. Adepoju encountered challenges at the early stages of building her consultancy. These included legal, operational, and credibility-related hurdles, particularly in an industry often plagued by fraud and misinformation. To overcome these challenges, she prioritized building trust through transparency, offering clear information about services and fees, and relying on official sources such as the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services. Through educational seminars, webinars, and consistent client support, her firm has built a solid reputation backed by successful case assistance.
Another significant challenge has been the constantly evolving nature of immigration policies, which directly impact eligibility and processing timelines. However, by staying informed and adaptable, her team continuously monitors policy updates and ensures clients are guided with the most current and accurate information.
What distinguishes Divine Immigration and Education Consultancy LLC from others in the industry is its strong emphasis on education, transparency, and personalized service. Rather than treating clients as mere case files, the firm takes time to understand each individual’s background, qualifications, and long-term goals before recommending suitable immigration pathways. This evidence-based approach ensures that clients are guided toward opportunities that genuinely align with their professional aspirations.
The consultancy’s services are tailored to meet the diverse needs of its clientele. Many clients seek assistance with employment-based immigration pathways, international education opportunities, and professional migration strategies. The firm also provides application preparation, documentation review, and strategic consultations for individuals exploring legal migration options.
Recognizing the complexity of immigration procedures, Dr. Adepoju and her team break down each process into clear, manageable steps. From initial consultation to document preparation and application submission, clients are guided through every stage, making the journey more organized and less stressful.
For individuals aspiring to relocate abroad but unsure where to begin, Dr. Adepoju emphasizes the importance of accurate information and proper guidance. She advises prospective applicants to assess their education, professional experience, and skill sets in order to identify pathways that align with their strengths. Consulting experienced professionals and focusing on legal immigration options, she notes, is critical to success.
Among the various immigration pathways available, the EB-2 National Interest Waiver (EB2-NIW) stands out as a viable option for highly skilled professionals. This program allows individuals with advanced degrees or exceptional ability in fields such as science, technology, healthcare, business, and education to apply for permanent residency without employer sponsorship, provided they can demonstrate that their work holds substantial merit and national importance.
Professionals in engineering, information technology, research, public health, entrepreneurship, and education often benefit from this pathway. The consultancy plays a crucial role in guiding applicants through the process by evaluating eligibility, organizing supporting evidence, structuring documentation, and preparing strong petition packages.
Despite the availability of such opportunities, Dr. Adepoju notes that many skilled professionals across Africa underutilize programs like EB2-NIW due to limited access to accurate information. She believes that increased awareness and proper guidance can help unlock these opportunities for a wider pool of talent.
However, she also cautions applicants against common mistakes, such as submitting incomplete documentation or relying on unverified sources. Immigration applications are evidence-driven, and poor preparation can significantly weaken a case. To avoid falling victim to scams, she advises applicants to verify the credibility of consultants, avoid guarantees of approval, and insist on transparency in all dealings.
Preparation, she emphasizes, is key. Prospective applicants should gather essential documents, including educational certificates, updated resumes, work experience letters, identification, and evidence of professional achievements. Proper documentation not only determines eligibility but also strengthens applications.
Beyond immigration, Dr. Adepoju highlights the importance of international education as a pathway to career advancement. Exposure to global knowledge systems, research opportunities, and professional networks equips individuals with skills that are highly valued in today’s workforce.
For young professionals, her advice is clear: build strong academic and professional foundations, develop expertise in high-demand fields, and continuously improve skills. Early planning and a clear understanding of immigration pathways can significantly enhance their chances of success.
Looking ahead, Dr. Adepoju envisions Divine Immigration and Education Consultancy LLC as a globally respected platform connecting talented individuals with legitimate opportunities for education, employment, and professional growth. Expansion plans include strengthening international partnerships, enhancing digital accessibility, and potentially establishing offices in regions with growing demand for immigration guidance.
Her motivation, however, goes beyond professional ambition. Inspired by her late mother’s values of compassion and service, as well as her involvement in the religious organization “Pages of the Blessed Sacrament,” Dr. Adepoju views her work as a mission. For her, immigration consultancy is not merely a profession but a calling to help individuals and families build better futures.
Each success story, whether it is a student gaining admission, a professional securing employment, or a family finding stability, reinforces her purpose.
Her message to those seeking better opportunities is both simple and profound: follow the legal path, stay informed, and remain patient. With determination, proper preparation, and the right guidance, she believes that individuals can successfully build brighter futures beyond their borders.

Mayor of Brampton Honours Olajumoke Abegunde For Charitable Works
Mayor of Brampton Honours Olajumoke Abegunde For Charitable Works
…Foundation Touches Over 8,000 Women, Widows, and Youth in Ondo State…..
…Collaborates with International Partners for Free Skill Acquisition in Canada…
For Chief Mrs. Olajumoke Abegunde, the act of touching lives positively and contributing meaningfully to societal development is not merely a pastime but a deeply ingrained existential mandate. With unwavering gusto, she has remained faithful to this noble vision, championing the esoteric principle that cheerful giving and advocacy for the downtrodden are responsibilities too sacred to be left exclusively in the hands of the government.
This resolute philosophy has not only engendered transformative impact within her immediate locality but has also catapulted her onto the global stage. Recently, her passionate charitable exertions—executed both within and outside the shores of Nigeria—earned her prestigious international recognition.
A Legacy of Grassroots Transformation
As the visionary founder of the Jummy I Care Foundation, Chief Mrs. Abegunde has systematically dismantled barriers of vulnerability across Ondo State. Through sustained philanthropic gestures, she has disbursed extensive humanitarian relief and social assistance to over 3,000 indigent widows and elderly persons. In parallel, her foundation has galvanized robust support for orphaned and vulnerable children while orchestrating an ambitious women’s empowerment programme. To date, over 5,000 women have benefited from skills acquisition and income-generating activities designed to cultivate self-reliance and entrepreneurial audacity. Many of these beneficiaries have also received start-up seed capital to establish their own enterprises.
A proud alumna of Criminology and Security Studies from the National Open University of Nigeria, Chief Mrs. Abegunde has also distinguished herself as a patron of youth development. She has sponsored numerous essay writing and entrepreneurship competitions across Ondo State, in addition to funding medical outreaches, orphanage interventions, Iftar and Easter entrepreneurship programmes, and sustained feeding initiatives for the less privileged.
Her core philosophy remains immutable: when those who are well-to-do invest strategically in their immediate society, the collective becomes safer, more stable, and poised for greater heights.
International Collaboration and Brampton Honour
In a decisive move to intensify her developmental footprint, the Jummy I Care Foundation recently entered into a strategic tripartite collaboration with the Habeeb Okunola Foundation and the MakeMee Elegant Foundation. Together, they delivered a gratuitous, high-impact skill acquisition training programme to residents of Brampton, Canada.
Participants were immersed in an array of artisan crafts, including the production of resin bags, photo books, picture otters, resin key holders and frame holders, ornamental flower vases, rhinestone embellishment, and the advanced technique of printing images on fabrics.
In a ceremonial recognition of her sustained benevolence, the Mayor of Brampton formally hosted Chief Mrs. Abegunde and her delegation at the mayor’s office. The mayor personally expressed profound gratitude for her unwavering support of community development and entrepreneurship. As a tangible emblem of this appreciation, she was presented with a personally signed certificate of appreciation and commendation.
Unwavering Commitment to the Future
While accepting the honour, Chief Mrs. Olajumoke Abegunde reaffirmed her immutable resolve. She declared that her commitment to touching lives remains absolute and non-negotiable. According to her, she will not relent in ensuring that more lives are touched, more support is channeled to the people, and greater stability is secured for communities. She further emphasized her dedication to cultivating the spirit of entrepreneurship among women and youths as a cornerstone for sustainable development.
With over 8,000 direct beneficiaries in Nigeria alone and an expanding international footprint, Chief Mrs. Abegunde stands as a formidable testament to the profound change one determined philanthropist can effectuate when passion meets purpose.

APM Senatorial Candidate Ajadi Distributes Over 500 Bags of Rice
The Senatorial candidate of Oyo Central Senatorial District under the Allied Peoples Movement (APM), Ambassador Olufemi Ajadi Oguntoyinbo, has distributed over 500 bags of rice to residents, party members, state executives, and key stakeholders across Oyo State ahead of the forthcoming Eid al-Adha celebration.
The gesture, which forms part of his annual humanitarian outreach, was aimed at easing economic hardship and strengthening unity among party executives, party members, and residents within the senatorial district during the festive period.
Ajadi said the distribution was a continuation of his commitment to supporting vulnerable households and fostering community solidarity, especially at a time when many families are facing rising food prices and economic pressure.
He explained that Eid al-Adha is rooted in sacrifice, sharing, and compassion, adding that political leadership must consistently reflect empathy for the people, regardless of political affiliation or election cycles.
According to him, the intervention was extended to party executives, grassroots mobilizers, youth groups, and key stakeholders across the senatorial district to ensure equitable distribution across different segments of the political structure in Oyo State.
Ajadi further noted that the initiative was designed to complement household food needs during the festive season, stressing that small acts of support can significantly ease the burden on families affected by economic challenges.
He urged political leaders at all levels to prioritize welfare-driven initiatives that have direct impact on citizens, emphasizing that leadership should go beyond campaigns to sustained service delivery and humanitarian engagement.
Beneficiaries of the rice distribution expressed appreciation for the gesture, describing it as timely and thoughtful amid rising food costs across the country.
They commended Ajadi for maintaining close contact with grassroots members and consistently demonstrating what they described as people-oriented leadership.
The distribution exercise was carried out across selected locations within Oyo Central Senatorial District and coordinated through local party structures to ensure fairness and orderly sharing.
Political observers in the state noted that such interventions have become a key feature of political engagement in Nigeria, particularly during festive seasons, as politicians seek to connect with constituents beyond electoral promises.
As the Eid al-Adha celebration approaches, Ajadi reaffirmed his commitment to continuing similar initiatives aimed at supporting families and promoting unity among residents of Oyo State.
