GIS Deports 100 African Migrants

The Ghana Immigration Service (GIS) has deported some one hundred illegal immigrants from the country.

Starrfmonline.com has gathered that the service over the past three months, based on intelligence, carried out a swoop in some parts of the country to purge it of illegal immigrants who are largely of African origin.

Speaking to Accra-based Citi FM on the development, the Head of Public Affairs of the GIS, Superintendent Michael Amoako-Atta said the GIS last year  December set up its intelligence gathering in certain spots in the capital and through that “we were able to make a lot of swoops to the arrest of mostly African Migrants who were in the country and whose stay was in contravention of the immigration laws of the country. So after profiling them we have to remove them from the jurisdictions.”
