The United States (US) Department of Homeland Security (DHS) on Thursday, September 17, 2026, published an updated list containing the names and photographs of 112 Nigerians facing deportation from the country.
The updated list, published on the DHS official website, contains Nigerians from different parts of the country.
Among those identified are Cletus Onyali, Olaolu Alabi, Marcus Unigwe, Mkpouto Etukudoh, Blessing Uchanma, Olaniyi Ojikutu, Richard Ugbah, Oluwamuyiwa Olawoye, Anthony Asanya and Ebele Agbasiele.
Others listed include Izuchukwu Okoye, Olufemi Olufisayo Olutiola, Abiemwense Obanor, Chibuzo Nwaonu, Oluchi Jennifer Chimdimma Chime, Ifeanyi Okoro, Oluwaseun Kassim, Quazeem Adeyinka and Talatu Dada.
The complete list contains 112 names, while the photographs and additional details of the individuals are available through the DHS online portal.
The publication comes amid increased immigration enforcement by the US government, particularly involving undocumented immigrants and individuals with outstanding removal orders.
It also comes as US authorities continue efforts to secure cooperation from foreign governments in receiving nationals who have been ordered to leave the country.
Nigeria has previously engaged with US authorities over the repatriation of Nigerians subject to removal proceedings.
The updated list provides public access to the identities and photographs of Nigerians currently identified by DHS for removal from the United States.
However, being included on a removal list does not, by itself, establish the specific circumstances or legal status of each individual’s immigration case.
