Pretoria - Nigerian Anthony Okey Nwafor, who was arrested in 2015 for allegedly posing as a medical doctor in Pretoria and Limpopo, is embroiled in another legal tussle. This time, he has turned to court after Home Affairs took away his South African citizenship, claiming he was still married when he entered into another marriage with an 18-year-old South African woman.

But the department objected to this “marriage” and said it was not legal. According to Home Affairs, his second wife was under the age of 21 and her guardians were supposed to have signed a consent form before she could get married. He was arrested after the Limpopo Department of Health, the SAPS anti-corruption unit and Home Affairs worked together for a long time to nab him.

Home Affairs said he had obtained his permanent residence in South Africa through fraudulent means. It further claimed he was still married to Ebere Nwafor when he married Gladys Vilankulu in South Africa.
