US govt deports six Nigerians over criminal offences
US military


Six Nigerians have been deported from the United States over various criminal offences, as part of a broader immigration crackdown by the U.S. government.


The deportees arrived in Lagos on Wednesday morning via a Delta Airlines flight, which touched down at the Murtala Muhammed International Airport just before 9 a.m. They were received by officials from Nigerian security and immigration agencies who are now processing them for further investigation and possible prosecution.

According to reports, their removal is part of a larger plan by U.S. authorities to deport at least 3,000 Nigerians involved in different crimes across the country.


This latest deportation wave follows a renewed push by the administration of former President Donald Trump—who returned to office earlier this year—to tighten immigration enforcement nationwide.

Within his first 100 days in office, President Trump has revived aggressive policies aimed at identifying and removing undocumented and criminal immigrants.

He has authorized arrests in sensitive locations such as schools and courthouses, and significantly increased workplace immigration raids.


Speaking earlier this month, Trump’s border czar Tom Homan said workplace immigration arrests have already tripled and are expected to triple again under the administration’s expanded enforcement orders.

On Monday, President Trump signed a fresh executive order directing Attorney General Pam Bondi and Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem to publish by May 28 a list of “sanctuary cities” that the administration says are obstructing federal deportation efforts.

The order also demands that federal agencies identify and potentially suspend funding to the jurisdictions.


The U.S. embassy in Nigeria has yet to issue a formal statement on the latest deportations.

Meanwhile, Nigerian authorities are expected to carry out background checks on the returnees and determine appropriate legal actions, if any

Former Italy International, Mario Balotelli, has revealed why he did not reach the heights of Cristiano Ronaldo’s career.The Ghanaian born Italian footballer said he could not reach that level of football because he does not possess the Portuguese legend’s work ethic.Balotelli was one of the highly rated strikers as a young footballer, but he, as many football fans would believe, was unable to live up to the promise of his talent.Balotelli has played for Inter Milan, AC Milan, Manchester City, Liverpool, Marseille, OGC Nice, Monza, and Adana Demirspor in his storied career.The Italian forward, who is still in active football, told Rai2 why he never reached the level of the former Man United, Real Madrid and Juventus man.As quoted by Goal, the Italian said, “He [Ronaldo] kills himself with training, I don’t… He has more money! I could have done more, but I’m happy.“I thank the fans who love me, but I made the wrong choice for the type of club.“It’s unlikely that I will play again in Italy or Europe. I will play for two or three years before I stop.”Balotelli laces his boots for Italian Serie A side, Genoa and his deal expires this summer.The former Manchester City man further revealed that he would be moving to the Major League Soccer, MLS, when his deal expires.“Yes, America. I will play two or three years before I stop,” he said.Ronaldo was handed his second golden boot in his second season in the Saudi Pro League on Monday.The Portugal national team captain, however, announced that his chapter with Al-Nassr may have come to an end.Ronaldo is said to have concluded arrangements to join Al Nassr’s rivals, Al Hilal in order to participate in the upcoming FIFA Club World Cup.At 40, the former Real Madrid attacker is showing no sign of slowing down as he hopes to become the first footballer ever to score 1000 career goals.
