Medical student could be forced out of country

A Sussex student faces being deported to Zimbabwe after Government officials ruled he had no right to be in Britain.

Top medical trainee Nigel Mabvuure, 20, could be sent back to Africa to face the turmoil of Robert Mugabe's regime.

He has been left having to fight for his future to complete his dream course at Brighton and Sussex Medical School.

Nigel arrived from Zimbabwe with his sister Mercy in August 2004 to join his mother Fenny.

But the Home Office has refused to grant him settlement rights in the UK so he is facing the prospect of returning to the poverty and political unrest of Zimbabwe.

Nigel is nearing the end of the first year of his course at Brighton and Sussex Medical School.
