Trump plans to deport 11 million illegal immigrants, but is constrained by the law.

Africans are worse.

Two years ago, Arewa Youth issued a "quit notice" to Igbos in the North. Nigerians and Ghanaians have a competitive sport of deporting/making life difficult for each other.
Idi Amin deported Ugandans of South Asian origin. Black South Africans periodically lynch Nigerians, Somalians, Mozambicans, Zimbabweans - or any non-white "African" (they obviously don't consider themselves as "African", as they talk about "traveling to Africa").
A foreign economist was pondering over "labor mobility" in Nigeria. If your ethnic group was issued a "quit notice" two years ago, would be in a hurry to relocate outside your comfort region in Nigeria?
People gush about Africa's Continental Free Trade Agreement - as if these problems exist, as if the social tensions arising from movement of people around the continent don't matter.
