Today (Thursday June 5th) the Department of Justice announced the completion of a forced deportation operation, to Nigeria, latter officially the Federal Republic of Nigeria and most populous country in West Africa.
Deportation orders were enforced against 35 people (30 adults and 5 children) who have been removed from Ireland by charter flight. The children removed were all part of family units.
This is the third operation conducted since the recommencement of charter flights for deportations in February of this year. Access to these services has significantly increased the capacity of An Garda Síochána to enforce deportation orders and step up immigration enforcement.
Charter flights are used in addition to commercial flights and can be more appropriate in circumstances where a group of people are being removed to the same destination. These operations are conducted under a contract, signed by the State in November 2024, for the provision of charter aircraft.
Two charter flights already conducted this year have removed 71 people who were subject to deportation orders. This operation brings the number of people removed by charter flight to 106. Additionally, 54 deportation orders have been enforced on commercial flights and 23 people subject to deportation orders are confirmed to have left Ireland unescorted so far in 2025.
The latest people concerned were Nigerian nationals and the flight left Dublin Airport on Wednesday night, before landing in Lagos this Thursday morning.
