97 Nigerians comprising of 95 males and 2 females were deported from South Africa as the tension of Xenophobic violence is still high.
The Nigerian deportees from South Africa landed at the Murtala Muhammed International Airport, Lagos, on Monday night in a chartered aircraft with registration number GBB710 from Johannesburg.
Sources revealed that six of the deportees had drug-related cases in South Africa, while 10 were arrested and deported for other criminal offences. The others were said to have committed immigration offences.
All the deportees were profiled by officials of the Nigeria Immigration Service (NIS), while those deported for drug-related offences were handed over to the police for further investigation.
