She was uninformed that the acknowledgment letter, gave by a specialist to the College of Regina in 2016, was phony until IRCC reached her only weeks before her graduation from the new establishment.
While accepting her certificate, Akinlade encountered a blend of happiness and nervousness after understanding that she had accidentally depended on a fake report to get her review grant. "I was crushed. That was the start of my injury," she said.
In her meeting with CBC News, Akinlade argued, "When the IRCC reached me, I mentioned them to rethink my case, contending that I was a casualty of a 'maverick specialist' who provided me with a phony acknowledgment letter to the Canadian school. If it's not too much trouble, survey my document. I simply maintain that this should be settled."
The excursion started in 2015 when Akinlade was filling in as a clinical agent at a drug organization in Lagos, holding a business organization degree from a Nigerian college. She met a man who professed to be a movement expert and proposed to help her become a worldwide understudy by applying for a graduate degree in business organization.

She furnished the specialist with her archives, including her identification and college records, alongside installment. Months after the fact, he furnished her with a review license for Canada, air tickets, and an acknowledgment letter from the College of Regina.
“I flew to Canada in late December 2016, expecting to start classes in January 2017. However, I was stopped in Winnipeg en route to Regina when I received a call from the agent, who told me there were no spaces available at the university and that I would have to go on a waitlist,” Akinlade recounted.
Upon appearance in Canada, she started looking for another school and program autonomously and remained with family members in Winnipeg until she was acknowledged at Nova Scotia Junior college for social administrations, beginning in September 2017. She picked social administrations since it lined up with her past work in the clinical field.
Akinlade didn't contact the College of Regina straightforwardly until two years after the fact, when she got a letter from the IRCC illuminating her that the acknowledgment letter was phony. "I had serious doubts in the wake of getting the IRCC letter, figuring it very well may be a misconception or something," she said. "In this way, I promptly reached the College of Regina. Furthermore, that was the point at which I took in reality."
CBC News contacted the specialist, Babatunde Isiaq Adegoke, who affirmed giving Akinlade the acknowledgment letter yet guaranteed it was provided by an organization called Achievement Foundation Training Counsel in Ejigbo, Lagos State.

Because of the phony letter, Akinlade lost her review license in Canada and was denied both a postgraduate work grant and a transitory occupant license. In Walk 2023, an IRCC official kept in touch with Akinlade, expressing that the division accepted she realized the record was phony "on the equilibrium of probabilities."
