Mass Deportation from UK: 44 Nigerians and Ghanaians Returned
The UK recently deported a record number of Nigerians and Ghanaians in a single flight as part of a continued effort to manage immigration.
On October 18, 2024, a mass deportation saw 44 individuals, comprising both Nigerians and Ghanaians, returned to their home countries.
This was part of a broader UK immigration strategy, with many of the deportees having overstayed their visas or been involved in immigration violations.
The UK Home Office has been ramping up deportation efforts and has entered agreements with several African nations, including Nigeria and Ghana, to facilitate these returns.
This comes amidst growing concerns over immigration control and illegal residency within the UK.
