The request she presented to the US president was that he should give immigrants time to finalize a way to return to their country. She asked the US president to give at least a year.

Speaking in the video, she said:

"At least give us one year, let us gather ourselves together. Our family are back home, they're praying for us. The ICE are behaving as they like. There's no ICE videos I watched where people are spoken to gently."
"They just feel like 'these people are animals, they're thugs, let us treat them like one.'"
"What's happening, President Trump? You're a human being too. You have families, you have children. This is not fair."

As the activities of ICE grow, she pleaded with Trump to fulfill her request, expressing readiness to leave the country due to the actions of Immigration and Customs Enforcement.

She continued:

"President Trump, give us time. We'll leave America for you."
"We're going to leave your country for you so that you and your ICE people can rule yourselves. All the Fourth Amendment, they're just putting their hands in it, they don't care. They don't know old, they don't know young, they don't know woman, they don't know man. They're just treating people like they're pieces of trash."

"Aunty go home! Renewed hope awaits you."

Ifemiju shared:

"This is what I always say that no matter what, no place like home, even if you don’t have it all in your country it is still far better than having the mentality of taking abroad as your new home, abroad will always be abroad to you as long as you are not originally from there, especially once you are black. Policies can spring up anytime and once it comes up there is nothing any immigrant can do about it. No matter what you are or you might have achieved abroad always know that you are an immigrant there and always have it at the back of your mind that one day you will go back to your country. I pray that God be with all our people in US during this difficult time, it is just crazy, I pray and hope God can help us build our country and make it great again."
