Judicial review dismissed as RAD reasonably found refugee claimant not credible due to material inconsistencies.
The applicant, a citizen of Nigeria, sought judicial review of a decision by the Refugee Appeal Division (RAD) dismissing her appeal of a Refugee Protection Division (RPD) decision rejecting her claim for refugee protection on credibility grounds.
The applicant had provided inconsistent narratives regarding threats from her in-laws related to her husband's disappearance and failed to claim asylum during two extended stays in the United States.
The Federal Court found that the RAD reasonably concluded the applicant was not credible due to numerous material inconsistencies and omissions in her evidence.
The application for judicial review was dismissed.
