BBC’s Umar Shehu Elleman took these photos of some of the Nigerians deported from the UK. About 500 deportees arrived at the Murtala Muhammed International Airport this morning on a chartered
flight from London. Recently, Nigeria expressed concern over UK’s plan to deport 29,000 Nigerians, and has insisted that due process be followed.
Most of the deportees say they are not happy to come back. One of them said was arrested by British police and was not allowed to even take his belongings before being deported. A few of them who say they don’t have relatives here are stranded in the airport.
