BREAKING: US Publishes Names, Photos of 124 Nigerians to Be Deported For Crimes (Full List)

• The United States Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has released the names and photographs of 124 Nigerians listed among foreign nationals facing deportation over criminal convictions as part of its intensified immigration enforcement campaign.

The United States Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has published the names and photographs of 124 Nigerians identified as foreign nationals facing deportation over criminal convictions.

The disclosure, made on the DHS website on Wednesday, is part of the agency’s updated “worst-of-the-worst” criminal register, which highlights non-citizens convicted of serious offences and targeted for removal from the United States.

While the names and photographs have been made public, US authorities did not specify when the affected Nigerians would be deported or disclose the specific crimes committed by each individual.

In a statement, the department said:

“The U.S. Department of Homeland Security is highlighting the worst of the worst criminal aliens arrested by the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). Under DHS leadership, the hard-working men and women of DHS and ICE are fulfilling President Trump’s promise and carrying out mass deportations – starting with the worst of the worst.”

The action forms part of the immigration enforcement measures introduced by President Donald Trump following his return to office on January 20, 2025. On his first day back in office, Trump signed executive orders declaring illegal immigration a national emergency, strengthening border security, and directing federal agencies to accelerate the deportation of undocumented migrants, particularly those considered threats to public safety and national security.

According to DHS, US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) has been instructed to intensify nationwide operations targeting non-citizens convicted of serious crimes.

The Trump administration has also expanded deportation flights to countries across Africa, Asia and the Caribbean. In June, Washington imposed partial visa restrictions on Nigerian citizens, citing concerns over identity management, information sharing, visa overstay rates and security screening.
