Nigerian Canvasser Arrested by ICE for Indecent Exposure
Chimaobim Adedayo Igbojekwe, a Nigerian national, was arrested by United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) after pleading guilty to a disorderly conduct charge linked to a public exposure incident. The Department of Homeland Security announced his arrest on October 7, 2026, following his initial arrest in East Pennsboro Township, Pennsylvania, on September 27, 2026.
Igbojekwe was found with his trousers off, exposing himself in a residential neighborhood near a park where children were present. He was working as a canvasser for Janelle Stelson, the Democratic nominee for Pennsylvania’s 10th congressional district, at the time of the incident.
ICE Deputy Director Charles Wall criticized Stelson for employing Igbojekwe, labeling him a "pervert" and emphasizing the agency's commitment to removing dangerous illegal aliens. Igbojekwe was lawfully admitted to the U.S. in June 2017 but overstayed his authorized period, which expired in November 2019.
He was granted deferred action by the Biden administration in September 2021.
