Kenyan Illegal Says He’s Now Safe After Self-Deporting

It’s no wonder NPR has lost their taxpayer funding, since they are pimping a sob story over illegal aliens

‘At least I’m safe’: A Kenyan immigrant opts to leave the U.S. on his own terms

On a recent Thursday afternoon, Samuel Kangethe pushes his 5-year-old daughter on the swings at a leafy park near his home. While she swings, the little girl eyes the nearby playground on top of a small hill.

Nearby, Kangethe’s 13-year-old son is showing his dad a few things about fishing on the Grand River. His 11-year-old daughter plays with her phone, and helps her sister navigate the playground.

“This is how we spend our days,” Kangethe says.

Kangethe is from Kenya, and has been living in Michigan for more than 16 years. He first came here as a student visa-holder. He now has a bachelor’s degree in accounting from Northwood University and a master’s degree in finance from Central Michigan University.

Waaaaa! You overstayed your visa

His immigration case involves a prior marriage that gave him conditional residency. But in 2014, immigration officials deemed that marriage fraudulent. A judge has yet to rule in that case, but since then, Kangethe’s gotten divorced and he remarried in 2018. But today in the eyes of the immigration system, he is deportable.

He has not committed any crimes, but he has also not been able to adjust his legal status.

“I have absolutely nothing to be ashamed of — I don’t want that case,” Kangethe says. “I’m not going to let it put me in shackles for the rest of my life. … I’m not a criminal.”

So he has made a decision.

“I need to take the option of self-deporting myself,” he says.

But, will he? He feels that he’s not safe. Safe like Laken Riley? Like the mom and 11 year old killed in DUI in NJ, despite the illegal having multiple DUIs and a domestic violence arrest?

Latvia is now worried when or if the family will ever get back together. The kids are losing their dad. She’s losing her husband.

“It’s scary. Essentially I’ll be a single mom,” she says. “And to go from a two-person income in the home where we’re able to piggy-back and do the things together like we’ve always done — It’s going to impact the entire family.”

She and the family can go with. And, if he self-deports, he can always re-apply for entry. Seriously, these people put themselves in this position. Also, didn’t the media tell us that no one is exempt from the law?
