Buju Banton, whose real name is Mark Myrie, was arrested in Florida in 2009 on charges of conspiracy to possess with the intent to distribute cocaine. He was sentenced to 10 years in prison and was released in December 2018 from the McRae Correctional Facility in Georgia.

He was deported back to Jamaica where he received a warm welcome from thousands of fans at the National Stadium during his Long Walk to Freedom concert held in March 2019.

Legal experts had posited that since Myrie was deported from the United States he would only be welcomed back on a temporary work visa, but not a visitor’s or non-immigrant one.
