EVEN as Nigeria is yet to recover from the rude shock of the unnecessary deportation of 125 of its citizens by the South African government last week, the country, on Friday, again suffered a similar fate from the British government, who deported 120 Nigerians over various allegations.

The deportees were brought into the country through the Murtala Muhammed International Airport, Lagos, aboard a chartered plane which landed Friday morning at the cargo terminal of the airport.

The deportees comprised mainly of young men and women, who lamented how they were brought back home unprepared. British immigration officials said they were alleged to have committed various immigration offences, ranging from over stay to lack of valid travel papers.

Most of the deportees looked particularly ruffled making frantic phone calls to their friends and relatives to picking them up at the Lagos airport.

Their deportation attracted criticisms from other airport users, as they were brought into the country aboard a cargo aircraft rather than a normal passenger plane, which the deportees said was enough indication of the value the British government placed on them.

Also, a combined team of Nigeria Customs Service Officers at the Murtala Muhammed International Airport on Friday intercepted 11 cartons of explosives weighing 95 kilogrammes.

The cartons, which were labeled cartridge powder devices and chargers, were flown in from South Africa since February 24, 2012.
