Thursday, May 15, 2025 - Three Nigerians have been deported from the United States of America, having been charged with various crimes in the country
It was gathered that their deportation was in connection with a decision
by the US government to deport at least 3,000 Nigerians, who had been involved
in various crimes in the country.
The deportees arrived on Wednesday, May 14, via a Delta Airlines flight,
at the Murtala Muhammed International Airport, Lagos, just before 9 am.
They were received by officials of different Nigerian government
agencies who would decide the next line of action
Under the Donald Trump administration, the US government intends to carry
out more deportations, in line with its policy of streamlining migration in the
country.
President Donald Trump launched an unprecedented mass immigration
crackdown within his first 100 days in office, detaining more people for
immigration violations and allowing arrests outside schools and courthouses.
On Monday, he signed an order directing his Attorney General and Secretary
of Homeland Security to compile a list of so-called “sanctuary cities” that,
according to administration officials, are not cooperating sufficiently with
federal deportation efforts.
