It's just so unthinkable the extent to which people are ready to go through to leave this country to another one believed to be the "Greener pasture",without any thing promised in your final destination.
No promised job,house or even food to eat,as many of them run out of food in their adventure of "40 days and nights in the wilderness."
Anyway,according to reports,Italy’s coast guard says at least 1,800 migrants, including Nigerians, were rescued from seven overcrowded vessels on Saturday.
It also said that five corpses were found on a large rubber boat carrying a separate 212 migrants. The coast guard made this known on Monday in Rome during a briefing and said that the cause of the death of the five persons was yet unknown.
Meanwhile, the United Nations refugee agency said the Mediterranean had become the world’s deadliest barrier for migrants and refugees, with 3,500 persons believed to have died at sea in 2014 and almost 2,000 so far in 2015.
It said that many were fleeing poverty and violence in the Middle East and Africa. The agency noted that while there was no breakdown by nationality of those rescued on Saturday, more than quarter of arrivals in 2015 were from Eritrea, Nigeria, Somalia, Sudan and Syria.
Absurd!!!
Absurd!!!
