GIS to Repatriate 8 Convicted African Nationals for illegal QNET-related Activities

The Ghana Immigration Service (GIS) is preparing to repatriate eight African nationals for engaging in illegal QNET-related activities.

They include three Togolese, two Cameroonians and three Burkinabes.

They were arrested in August 2025 and subsequently convicted on September 9, 2025, and completed their custodial sentences at Nsawam Prisons.

“After serving six-month sentences at Nsawam Prisons, the individuals have been transferred to the Immigration Service Holding Centre in Accra,” it said in a statement.

They remain in lawful custody pending repatriation to their home countries.

The Service used the opportunity to urge landlords and property owners to exercise due diligence when renting out their properties to foreign nationals since harbouring illegal immigrants is an offence under section 52(1mb) of the Immigration Act 2000 Act 573.

“The Comptroller General of Immigration and Management of the Service remain committed to protecting the territorial integrity of the country and ensuring compliance with Immigration Laws at all times.”

The individuals have identified as:
Alabe Sanga — Burkinabe
Mafo Clareisse — Cameroonian
Sylvie Amatala — Togolese
Mohammed Jazaw — Burkinabe
Modesto Forgane — Cameroonian
Soulemane Biibal — Burkinabe
Doubo Prince — Togolese
Ben Raze — Togolese
