DHS Updates Deportation List for 112 Nigerians

The United States Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has released an updated list of 112 Nigerians facing removal from the country, which has been published online along with their names and photographs. This list includes individuals such as Cletus Onyali, Olaolu Alabi, Marcus Unigwe, and others from different parts of Nigeria.

The publication of this list is part of a broader initiative by the US government to enhance immigration enforcement, particularly targeting undocumented immigrants and those with outstanding removal orders. Additionally, it reflects ongoing efforts by US authorities to secure greater cooperation from foreign governments, including Nigeria, regarding the repatriation of their nationals who have been ordered to leave the United States.

This update comes amid previous pressures on Nigeria from the US concerning the deportation of its nationals.
