Numerous Nigerians are allegedly impacted by President Donald Trump’s administration’s ongoing harsh crackdown on illegal immigrants and criminals throughout the United States.
In the midst of the increased deportation campaign spearheaded by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), it was widely reported that some Nigerians have gone into hiding while others are discreetly going home.
In many regions of the nation, the widespread enforcement measures—which include house-to-house raids—have sparked protests, controversy, and terror, especially in the wake of numerous high-profile events involving federal immigration authorities.
