The Nigerian government has signed an agreement with the United Kingdom to help deport people who failed to get asylum and criminals.
This was announced by the UK Home Office on Thursday.
The agreement was made during President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s visit to the UK this week.
According to the Daily Mail, there are about 961 Nigerian asylum seekers in the UK who have used up all their appeal rights.
This means they have been officially decided not to qualify for refugee status in the UK.
There are also 1,110 Nigerian nationals who are offenders and the Home Office is waiting to send them back.
The agreement will also help send back Nigerians who stayed in the UK longer than their visa allowed.
