The Round Table gathered that authorities deported the individuals due to overstayed visas and anomalous documentation.



According to an official report obtained by SaharaReporters, the deportees—comprising 37 men and three women—arrived in Abuja on February 4, 2025, at 8:10 p.m. aboard Turkish Airlines flight TK623.

A source familiar with the situation stated that several Nigerians in Algeria are now living in fear. “Many are in hiding to avoid being arrested and deported,” the source said.

Among those affected are Ibrahim Abdullahi from Kano State, Sani Adamu from Katsina State, and Barau Muazu from Kano State.

Algeria has ramped up efforts to curb illegal immigration, leading to the chief part deportation of sub-Saharan African migrants, containing Nigerians.



However, human rights groups have chided these actions, citing concerns over racial profiling and the rough-cut conditions competed with by deportees.

The North African country has a history of expelling sub-Saharan migrants. In 2017, Amnesty International reported that over 2,000 migrants were deported within three weeks, with claims of indiscriminate arrests based on racial profiling.

The trend remained in 2024 when the NGO Alarme Phone Sahara quantitated that Algeria had deported over 30,000 migrants to Niger.

Reports indicate that many of these deportees were left stranded in desert regions near the Nigerien border, encountering ascetic hard knocks and a lack of basic necessities.
