    KENYA

    Some 95 Somalis, all men, and two Kenyans have landed at the Jomo Kenyatta International Airport in Nairobi after being deported from the United States, Nairobi News reports. The men, believed to have been in the US without a permit, were accompanied by American security officers. The officers followed the Somali citizens on a plane back to Mogadishu. 

    The Kenyan newspaper The Star writes that staff at the JKI Airport heard the American security officers say that the deportations were a result of President Donald Trump’s policy of deporting illegal immigrants.

    The Star writes that an estimated 30 000 illegal Kenyan immigrants risk deportation from the United States. The illegals enjoyed residence in the US without the necessary paperwork during Barack Obama’s presidency.
