Meet The Supposed Nigerian Man who Leads a Dangerous Street Gang in The UK!

According to Daily Mail UK, government efforts to have him deported at the end of his sentence last year floundered amid failures to decide which country should take him. Home Office officials have today said his movements would be closely monitored and they will continue to attempt to have him deported.

Giwa was thought to be from Nigeria or Sierra Leone, but both countries refuse to accept he is one of their citizens. He flew into Britain from Nigeria in 1999, aged ten, without a guardian. His parents are believed to be dead.

Giwa, who lived in Thornton Heath, south London, is the self-proclaimed ‘general’ in charge of the Don’t Say Nothing gang – known as DSN– with a string of convictions for theft and robbery. In 2007, the DSN gang was behind a surge in violence on the streets of Croydon which saw stabbings, shootings and murder. Police officers linked Giwa to at least 99 incidents of criminal or anti-social behaviour.

In a YouTube video, he boasted about stabbing a man 'in the f****** head' and he bragged about his crimes on Facebook during his jail term. A High Court judge in October said there was a 'significant risk' of Giwa reoffending, but he ruled he should go free if the Home Office could not deport him within three months

One former officer told an immigration hearing he had a 'clear propensity for violence' and posed a 'serious threat to the public'.

Darin Birmingham, a former police sergeant, said Giwa had no fear of 'confrontation and violence' and was ready at any time to use knives and other weapons.

A Home Office spokeswoman today said: 'We vigorously opposed this individual’s application for bail and we are very disappointed by the court’s decision.

'He will be subject to rigorous monitoring, including an electronic tag, and we are continuing to fight for his removal from the UK.'
