Nigerian student in UK jailed, to be deported for terror threat

A Nigerian master’s student in the United Kingdom, Somtochukwu Okwuoha, will be deported to Nigeria after serving a 40-month jail term.

Mr Okwuoha was sentenced on Friday after he was found guilty of seven charges by a jury for making terror threats against Dundee University.

The 26-year-old claimed he had enlisted ISIS, an international terrorist group, to help bomb the university and told staff he planned to target the city in a chemical attack.
