United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement has expanded the Department of Homeland Security’s “Worst of the Worst” registry by adding 10 Nigerian nationals.
The newly listed individuals face various allegations spanning wire fraud, identity theft, child cruelty, drug violations, and weapons offenses.
Checks on the official DHS portal reveal these individuals are classified among the criminal immigrant population detained by ICE authorities.
The names of the 10 Nigerians alongside their respective offenses and locations include:
Temitope Bashua — Fraud by wire, identity theft and fraud — Allenwood, Pennsylvania
Ojehoro Lewis — Cruelty toward child — Conroe, Texas
Osemudiamen Kingsley Oziegbe — Fraud by wire — Louisville, Kentucky
Daniel Oworen — Dangerous drugs — Conroe, Texas
Raymond H. Ekevwo — Fraud by wire — Oxford, Wisconsin
Franklin Dikeocha — Sex offence against child – fondling — Dallas, Texas
Johnson Ogunlana — Fraud and identity theft — White Deer, Pennsylvania
Chukwuemeka Okorocha — Fraud by wire, dangerous drugs, possession of weapon and aggravated assault, non-family gun — Allenwood, Pennsylvania
Tunde Korede — Conspiracy — Allenwood, Pennsylvania
Chukwuemeka Chinye — Larceny from a banking-type institution, fraud, larceny, identity theft and conspiracy — Pollock, Louisiana
According to the department, the database was established to showcase individuals categorized as the most severe criminal aliens apprehended by ICE enforcement teams.
“Under DHS leadership, the hardworking men and women of DHS and ICE are fulfilling President Trump’s promise and carrying out mass deportations – starting with the worst of the worst – including the illegal aliens you see here,” the department stated.
This development succeeds a prior roster released by the agency in July, which contained 124 Nigerian citizens apprehended by ICE and categorized under the same high-risk directory.
On July 9, 2026, American authorities publicized the identities and images of those 124 individuals due to their alleged involvement in diverse criminal activities.
Neither the previous July publication nor this recent addition specifies exact schedules or timelines for when the affected individuals will face actual deportation.
Furthermore, officials clarified that the current publication designates the persons as ICE detainees rather than confirming that their removal proceedings have already been concluded.
