Sierra Leone

Ghana took in Trump's deported West Africans. Then it forced them home

Mohamed Alghali, 33, looks at an album containing photographs of his mother, Rabbiatu Kuyateh, at the home they shared in Bowie, Maryland, U.S., December 10, 2025. Kuyateh was deported in November to Ghana, which has an agreement with the Trump administration to take West African migrants who cannot easily be sent to their home countries. She said she was then flown against her will to her native Sierra Leone, where she feared she could be tortured because of her father's ties to the political opposition. REUTERS/Julio-Cesar Chavez
