A Nigerian family that fled to Canada four years ago to escape persecution for their Christian faith is facing deportation after the federal government rejected their application to remain in Canada.
Morufat Ogunkoya, her husband, and their son and two daughters fled Nigeria in 2018 after she converted from Islam to Christianity and her father, a Muslim cleric, issued an Islamic legal ruling called fatwa calling for her death, according to one of the groups helping the family.
