The United States Department of Homeland Security is set to deport at least 79 convicted Nigerians included on its ‘worst-of-the-worst’ criminal list.
Checks on the DHS website, showed that the 79 Nigerians were convicted of offences bordering on fraud, drug peddling, assault, manslaughter and robbery, among others.
An accompanying note showed that the convicts were arrested as part of the United States’ crackdown on criminal immigrants.
The note read, “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.
“Under Secretary Noem’s leadership, the hardworking 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, including the illegal aliens you see here.”
