JUST IN: Over 3,600 Nigerians Risk Trump’s US Deportation Crackdown

The United States government has set its sights on deporting at least 3,690 Nigerians residing in the country without proper documentation.

This move comes on the heels of President Donald Trump’s vow to crack down on illegal immigration.

According to data compiled by US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), Nigeria ranks second among African countries with the highest number of citizens facing deportation, surpassed only by Somalia with 4,090 individuals.

Ghana follows closely with 3,228 undocumented immigrants.

The ICE data, titled “Noncitizens on the ICE Non-Detained Docket with Final Orders of Removal by Country of Citizenship,” reveals that Mexico and El Salvador top the list globally, with 252,044 and 203,822 individuals, respectively, facing deportation.

Advocacy groups have expressed strong opposition to the Trump administration’s hardline immigration policies, warning of severe repercussions for immigrant families, particularly those with US-citizen children.

The Center for Law and Social Policy has also voiced concerns that the changes could deter families from seeking essential services, including medical care, disaster relief, and education.

Religious leaders have also spoken out against the policy, urging the administration to show compassion toward immigrants and vulnerable populations.
