The United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) has identified a Nigerian man, Ibrahim Tunde Ijaoba, as a “criminal illegal alien” with an extensive criminal history, including violent offences and gang affiliation.
In a statement released by US immigration authorities, ICE said Ijaoba is a Nigerian national and a former member of the Bloods — a notoriously violent street gang known for armed criminal activity across several US states.
According to ICE, Ijaoba entered the United States illegally and subsequently amassed a long rap sheet involving serious felonies.
His criminal convictions include aggravated assault on a police officer with a firearm, assault and aggravated assault, armed robbery, obstruction of justice, drug sales, and escape from police custody.
US immigration officials noted that the offences reflect a pattern of violent and organised criminal behaviour, posing a threat to public safety.
ICE further disclosed that Ijaoba is currently under a final order of removal and remains in immigration custody pending deportation to Nigeria.
