As part of President Donald Trump's increased crackdown on illegal immigration, Sierra Leone has become the most recent African country to receive individuals deported from the United States.
On Wednesday morning, a plane carrying nine migrants from West Africa touched down at Lungi International Airport, close to the capital, Freetown.
Officials said the group consisted of two ladies and seven men, all of whom were clearly upset when they arrived.
Security officers reportedly had to physically remove one deportee who refused to get off the plane, as seen on the BBC.
Sierra Leone's Foreign Minister, Timothy Kabba, previously acknowledged that the government had agreed to receive up to 300 deportees from the United States each year.
