The NXF (National LGBT Federation) have released a statement in regards to a decision made by the Department of Justice in relation to whether the bisexuality of an asylum seeker was “credible”.
It was reported that the man, who described coming to Ireland out of fear of persecution for his sexuality in Nigeria, had his appeal for asylum rejected by the High Court due to an overlong delay in bringing said appeal to court. However, the High Court took issue with the Department of Justice saying the man’s sexuality was not credible as he would not have engaged in same-sex activity in Nigeria if local laws and customs would have forbid it.

A Nigerian man seeking asylum in Ireland in fear of persecution over his sexuality has had his appeal rejected, however, the High Court has taken issue with the Department of Justice describing his bisexuality as implausible.
In 2016, the man, referred to as Mr X, came to Ireland seeking asylum after allegedly fleeing from Nigeria in fear of his safety after his bisexuality was discovered. Two years later, the Department, concluding there were inconsistencies to his story of having same-sex relations, issued a notice to the man containing a deportation order, deciding that he would face no harm upon his return to Nigeria.
