US Deports Over 400 Nigerians – See the Shocking Full List of African Countries Affected!
Nigeria has been ranked third among African countries with the highest number of deportations from the United States between 2020 and 2025, according to recent data from the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).
A staggering 437 Nigerians were deported during this period, placing the country behind Senegal (689) and Mauritania (481). The report, sourced from ICE’s Enforcement and Removal Operations (ERO) division, highlights that most deportations were due to criminal convictions or final removal orders by immigration judges.
Other African nations on the list include Egypt (387), Ghana (276), Angola (227), Cameroon (166), Guinea (162), Somalia (154), and Kenya (131). The enforcement actions fall under Title 8 of the U.S. Code, which authorizes ICE to remove non-citizens with final deportation orders.
This data sheds light on the ongoing challenges faced by the U.S. government in managing immigration enforcement, particularly under the Trump administration, which has intensified crackdowns on visa violations and criminal offenses.
Earlier this month, hundreds of international students had their visas abruptly revoked, forcing many to leave the U.S. within days. The latest figures have sparked debates on U.S.-Africa immigration policies and the treatment of African nationals abroad.
