The United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) has published the names and pictures of 10 additional Nigerians in its “worst of the worst” suspected criminal offenders register.
The US ICE said it is carrying out the promise of US President Donald Trump to carry out mass deportations, “starting with the worst of the worst – including the illegal aliens”.
The names and pictures were published on the website of the US department of homeland security (DHS).
“The U.S. Department of Homeland Security is highlighting the worst of worst criminal aliens arrested by the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE),” the statement reads.
“Under DHS 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.”
The register, which is being updated regularly, contains citizens from many countries of the world.
The suspects face allegations ranging from sexual assault, fraud, and illicit drugs smuggling.
The department did not state the exact date that those on the register will be deported to their various countries.
In February, the names and pictures of 79 Nigerians were published on the register.
The number of Nigerians on the register rose to 124 in July.
In August, the US said it has revoked more than 175,000 visas issued to foreign nationals under Trump administration for allegedly violating visa conditions, committing crimes, or posing security threats.
