Tony Aidoo Deported From UK?

The former Deputy Minister of Defence, Dr Tony Aidoo is alleged to have been deported from the United Kingdom recently.

According to The Statesman newspaper, it has reliable information from Britain’s immigration department that Tony Aidoo who had ostensibly traveled to the United Kingdom to pursue an academic programme in Law was instructed to leave because he had overstayed his visa.

His story underscores the European country’s stern stance on immigration these days. Tony had earlier studied in the UK. His Ghanaian passport bears the stamp-print of his deportation order.
