UK Deports 43 Immigration Offenders to Nigeria, Ghana
The United Kingdom has deported 43 individuals, including failed asylum seekers and convicted foreign nationals, to Nigeria and Ghana.
This was announced on Friday in a joint statement by the UK’s Home Office and the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO), though the statement did not disclose the precise date of the deportations.....KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶
According to the release, those removed included 15 individuals whose asylum applications were denied and 11 former prisoners who had completed their sentences. An additional seven people returned voluntarily. The statement, however, did not specify the exact number of deportees sent to each country.
The DAILY POST recalls that UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer, who assumed office last year, has so far overseen two chartered deportation flights returning a total of 87 people to Nigeria and Ghana. In October last year, a single flight repatriated 44 individuals — the largest such operation to date.
These deportations have followed the collapse of the UK’s 2022 migration agreement with Rwanda, which aimed to relocate illegal asylum seekers to the East African nation. The UK Supreme Court ruled the plan unlawful in 2023.
Subsequently, Nigeria reportedly signed a deportation agreement with the UK to receive returning migrants.
British Minister for Border Security and Asylum, Angela Eagle, expressed appreciation to the governments of Nigeria and Ghana for their cooperation, highlighting the deportations as evidence of strong bilateral relations.
The UK government also noted that deportations have increased by 11 percent over the past year, with more than 24,000 individuals returned during that period.
