The United States has deported a Nigerian national, Ayodeji Ajayi, following multiple criminal convictions, including domestic violence, as part of its ongoing immigration enforcement efforts.
The US Immigration and Customs Enforcement disclosed this in a statement posted on its official X account on Tuesday, saying Ajayi had remained in the country illegally after entering on a student visa nearly two decades ago.
According to the agency, “Ayodeji Olamide Ajayi, of Nigeria, entered the United States in 2007 on a student visa and eventually left school, but failed to leave the country.”
ICE said instead of departing the US after leaving school, Ajayi accumulated a lengthy criminal record.
