A Nigerian man tries to force his way into Buckingham palace.

A 23 year old Nigerian man Tosin Odunaiya has tried to barge his way into Buckingham Palace, the residence of the British Royal family in London.

He was stopped at the gate by the guardsmen causing him to lose his temper. It led to one of the guardsmen raising his rifle at him. Mr Odunaiya who is an illegal migrant said he expected the Royal family would welcome him to the Palace.

He told the sun ''I wanted to speak with the Queen and presumed that the Royal family would welcome me as their lost son.''

He claimed the guards didn't scare him, even when the rifle was pointed at him. He also said that this is the fifth time he was trying to see the Queen and was so confident he would be allowed in that he bought his toothbrush with him.
