ICE Adds 10 Nigerians to Worst of the Worst Register
U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement added 10 Nigerians to a high-priority deportation register for crimes including wire fraud and drug offenses.
The United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement added 10 Nigerian nationals to the Department of Homeland Security's Worst of the Worst register on August 28, 2026. The individuals are cited for a range of offenses, including identity theft, wire fraud, drug offenses, and child-related crimes.
This update expands a previous list from July 2026 that identified 124 Nigerians under the same register. The Department of Homeland Security stated that these actions fulfill President Donald Trump's promise to carry out mass deportations, prioritizing the most serious criminal offenders.
While the register identifies these individuals as criminal immigrants arrested by federal agents, the current list does not provide specific deportation dates or confirm whether the individuals have already been removed from the country.
