The applicant, a citizen of Nigeria, sought judicial review of a decision by the Refugee Appeal Division (RAD) confirming the rejection of his refugee claim based on feared persecution due to his bisexuality.
The RAD found the applicant's testimony regarding past relationships and alleged disclosures of his sexuality not credible, citing vagueness and inconsistencies.
The Federal Court applied the reasonableness standard and upheld the RAD's decision, finding no reviewable error in its credibility assessments or its reliance on unchallenged findings by the Refugee Protection Division.
