The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) recently updated its records, adding these new names to the list of criminal immigrants targeted for deportation.
The updated list shows that the new individuals were mostly involved in wire fraud, mail fraud, and identity theft. The move is part of a larger nationwide effort by U.S. authorities to remove foreign nationals involved in criminal activities.
Some of the Nigerians on the latest list include Oluwaseyanu Akinola Afolabi, Olugbeminiyi Aderibigbe, Benjamin Ifebajo, Obinwanne Okeke, Kolawole Aminu, Oluwadamilola Olufunsho Ojo, Franklin Ibeabuchi, Alex Afolabi Ogunshakin, Joshua Ineh, Stephen Oseghale, Eghosa Obaretin, Adesina Surajudeen Lasisi, Ibrahim Ijaoba, Azeez Yinusa, Charles Akabuogu, Kelechi Umeh, Lotenna Chisom Umeadi, Donald Ehie, and Chukwudi Kingsley Kalu.
This action reflects the U.S. administration’s strict approach toward illegal and criminal immigrants, with several foreign nationals, including Nigerians, affected by the ongoing enforcement operation.
