A Nigerian knifeman who was jailed for threatening a British mother with a blade in front of her child has won a human rights case to stay in the UK.
Olajide Shinaba, 32, was taken in off the streets by the British woman, but after telling her he was leaving, he barged back in and pulled a knife out and lunged at her - while her young daughter watched on. The migrant claimed that if the woman, who was his friend, had been a man, he would have stabbed her. He was later jailed for 11 months.
Upon his release, he married a British woman in an 'Islamic ceremony', and he has two children with her.
The Home Office listed Shinaba for deportation back to his home country, however he has now successfully appealed.
An immigration judge allowed his appeal on human rights ground due to the 'significant obstacles of reintegration' he would face in Nigeria.
