The deportees, who landed in the early hours of Thursday, comprised 47 males, 11 females and three minors.Sources say they were deported as a result of immigration-related offences such expired visas.Most of the deportees were not allowed bring back any belongings.
I can imagine the atmosphere on the airplane..Going back home unplanned with no money or belongings..Sad:(
One of the deportees who identified herself as Juliet, claimed that she was also arrested by the British Immigration officer over expired documents.
“My visa expired and they said I could no longer reside in the UK; that is why I was brought back home,” she said.
The deportees were received by immigration service officers, the Nigerian Police Force, aviation Security personnel and a few relatives..Hopefully things would turn out well for them in Nigeria..
