This is different - this agreement is for the repatriation of Nigerians specifically.
Keep on deceiving yourself. Do they need an agreement to send Nigerians back home, have they not been doing it all along?

OFFENDERS AND BANDITS IN ONE COUNTRY

NIGERIA IS GONE

I don't see anything wrong in receiving Nigerian Deportees back in the country and even offenders, the same way we would welcome Nigerian Philanthropists from the UK.
My own worry is that his travels are mostly ill-timed which shows he cares less about Nigerians. Tinubu is only after Nigeria's money because others have been stealing it and he wanted to also take his turn.
He travelled at a time there was a terrorist bomb attack in Borno where Nigerians have killed and a lot injured.
Nigeria is not fit to be called a country.

Are you sure? Because i looked for that in the wrie up and did not see it. Rather i saw a reference to Rwanda's former role in the same capacity.
Furthermore, is any special agreement needed to deport illegals emanating from Nigeria?

Edit: Confirmed independently you are right. Phew.
Re: Nigeria Agrees To Receive Offenders, Failed Asylum Seekers From UK by Smartguyboy(m): 8:29am On Mar 20
The recent migration agreement between Nigeria and the United Kingdom marks a significant shift in bilateral relations, prioritizing streamlined deportation processes and joint security operations. Concluded during President Tinubu’s state visit with PM Keir Starmer, the deal replaces the defunct Rwanda plan with a more direct partnership.

Meaning they can now deport criminals to Nigeria without waiting for permission from Nigeria .

See all these liars; if this story is true, bring up the proof, and let's... All these never-do-wells will just cook up falsehoods and post them on social media for gullible people like them to consume...

Show us where agreement could be found... You only show the picture of the interior minister; show the content of the agreement if you are certain about this foolish propaganda... or you don't have any reliable sources or links to post with your thread?

What? So we are taking over from Rwanda as the dustbin for UK illegal immigrants?

Chai.

Edit: Just confirmed its limited to Nigerians. PHEW.
My question is, what did we get in return for this? Surely a catered dinner at Windsor Castle doesn't do it!

One of the biggest skills you will need to pick up in life is the ability to spot a person who is more knowledgeable than you and conduct yourself accordingly.

For your information, though you certainly do not deserve to be informed, there are different classes of immigration issues. There are people who purposefully destroy their travel papers in order to make it legally impossible to tie them to a particular country and deport them there, partly because the receiving country may not accept that these are their citizens without a valid travel document like a passport or emergency travel certificate. This agreement allows the UK to issue a special document that will be recognised by the Nigerian government in such cases.

the return of individuals without legal status in the United Kingdom.

Under the arrangement, Nigeria will recognise UK-issued identification letters—documents given to individuals without valid passports—thereby eliminating delays associated with obtaining emergency travel certificates before deportation.
It also means that anybody with black skin whose country won't accept can be issued with UK identity document making him Nigerian. And be deported to Nigeria.

Remember that Trump deported Colombians, Venezuelans, and others to El Salvador abi na wetin be that country.

Many countries simply refuse to admit anyone without ID is not issued by the home country.

So Nigeria will become a dumping ground for non-Nigerians who are deported from the U.K? What kind of stupidity is this?

True. Whereas, if that immigrant were able to remain a bit longer, immigration policy might change, reconcile with estranged spouse, or use their children and humanitarian means to get their papers.

Many people who eventually got their papers were at some point in line for deportation if they had been caught, or if deportation had been possible without valid 9ja ID. Some detained for immigration issues were eventually released. And are British citizens today making their contribution to society.

With all our intellectuals, we're still not wise. We're like poor kids that they flatter with nonsense slogans like "naija nor dey carry last and naija jollof" and our leaders smile sheepishly because a white man is using our slogan.

Anyone that wants to listen should listen and face reality. Nothing will ever come out of the black race, except the world is wiped out and creation starts again from the scratch.
spot on truth,trust the defenders to come for you..average nigerian knows this truth but we are so gullible and weak minded that we choose to wallow in the deceit of the lies sold to us by the whites through our clowns we call leaders

Now you have gotten the point! You are asking a very valid question! When some nairalanders like the funny Righteousness 2 see me chriticising America and Israel while supporting Iran, they simply don't get it. These oyinbo people are racist and will rather relate with Pakistanis, Palestinians and Afghans that are currently making money in their country and raping their daughters than associate with a black sub Saharan African that only seeks economic emancipation. It breaks their hearts that those Arabs with a similar skin colour to them are hurting and always fighting them.
It is might be simply false to claim that no offers were made to those countries to accept a swap for taking their people back. Such offers were very likely put forward, and regardless of any uncertainty about the specifics, the countries involved have shown deliberate and consistent unwillingness to engage in any serious discussion — let alone agree to receive individuals who may have spent four arduous years crossing the desert to reach the UK. Our acceptance is probably driven by their ongoing search for validation on the international stage, a reality that has undeniably shaped and constrained the entire negotiation process.
Re: Nigeria Agrees To Receive Offenders, Failed Asylum Seekers From UK by Btruth:
President Tinubu was really weak on this. 😢. The offenders is understandable, but let the British government deal with the failed asylum seekers themselves. Nigeria government shouldn't encourage the British to return them. When the British came to Nigeria long time before the independent, who authorized their coming? And till tomorrow, they are still stealing from this country. The British are the most corrupt country in the world. And soon, very soon that are going to have a serious problem internally. Because you can't go all around the world and stole from their lands, and you in turn started protecting your land. Thieves they are, thieves they will remain.

Continue to explain what you know nothing about in the name of being skilled.

Agreement was signed less than 24hours ago but your ego wants you to believe you know better than everyone else even though you have not seen the colour of the document let alone reading it, Mr skilled.

UK really gained a lot from this jamboree visit.

We spent billions of naira to lobby and prep for it which benefited U.K lobbyists, event management companies, hotels, restaurants, and luxury car rental companies — and we “supposedly” secured a deal that will benefit U.K. contractors, construction companies, engineers, and the U.K. government.

One, respect is reciprocal. Two, this refers to deportation of Nigerians. The other wanted to force disposing global criminals on us.
Are you sure this is about the deportation of Nigerians? It did not specify and such agreements need to be specific. It said Nigeria will accept individuals with papers issued by UK Immigration. And we wonder why they were toasting him .... butter him up then drop the agreement for him to sign. What is not mentioned is the UK will pay for the maintenance of each deported .....and we already know what will happen to that. Gang members and criminals loading

Deported people have identities, they came into the country with passports and have records. Some people throw away their passports, destroy it or whatever to frustrate deportation procedure.
