Hajj stampede survivor say Saudi Arabia paramedics favoured white victims over Africans

One of the survivors from the recent stampede in Saudi Arabia, an indigene of Osun State, resident in Warri, Delta State revealed that paramedics ignored African pilgrims and concentrated on rescuing white and Caucasian victims which resulted in a high casualty rate among Africans. He said he was stuck in the midst of dead bodies for more than two hours and there was no help from paramedics, who favoured whites over blacks.


"I tried to escape but it was impossible as I was stuck in the midst of many dead bodies and some people were climbing over me to find an escape. I struggled to get myself up to the waist level. From my toe to my waistline, people were all over and I could not get up. I was calling the Saudi police and paramedics on the scene to help me but they didn’t respond and I was stuck there for more than two hours as they were busy helping whites, with no response to my plea,"

    1. It's sad but the reality is that they would get more flak for any white or Caucasian dat dies but they know African govt don't give a cent about their citizens. Period

    2. The origin of the transatlantic slave trade started with the middle eastern Islamic trans-Sahara traders informing the Southern Europeans who crossed the Mediterranean about black people across the Sahara who they had described with words that I will not put down. Unfortunately the Southern Europeans informed the Western Europeans and with the discovery of the new world, sub Saharan Africa was pillaged and bastardized that it took the same Caucasians to end slave trade . Unfortunately we have refused to educate ourselves as a race , as a people, as a nation.... Those in the know know that middle eastern folks are dastardly racist with no apologies. At least Caucasians of European and American origin try to criminalize this and bring it to people's consciousness. Boko Haram had even made this worse by propelling a belief from Islam and kill people of their own kind. You wonder if the black man is stupid after all

    5. You said it all @Damilola. Besides, Africans should stay in their mosques next time. I don't get d point of traveling for Hajj when there r mosques here.

    6. Dats kinda true. Why do we also travel to Jerusalem when we have better churches here in Nigeria, especially considering the fact that we have the biggest church in the world?

      Hope my question answers your question

    2. Anon 7:29 True talk. It's good to be objective. Why evaluate faith 'A' on d basis of some criteria and want to exempt faith 'B' from being evaluated on the basis of same criteria.
      That would most unfair.
      Ironically, our good friend is inviting us into his 'non-evil' religion by via unfair and rather immoral means.
      This doesn't seem to add up, or does it?

  42. Sometimes I wonder what Islam stands for? Any mercy, forgiveness or love at all? Look at the migrant crisis. All refugees are trooping to Christian countries. The pope has even accepted some Muslim refugees and have ordered other parishes to do same. Yet not one, not even a single super rich Arab country has stepped forward to help. Not even Saudi Arabia where Mecca is located. I do not know of any big Muslim charity that caters for people of all faith. Look at the report of how black Muslims are treated within their own religion. So what does Islam stand for please? Can someone help me understand?

    For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.

  60. Arabs are very racist, meanwhile some research has shown that their Prophet was a black man. Most of them know he is a black man thats why their religious scholars and leaders encourage them to protest whenever the image of him is mentioned.

  65. It is a pity. They knew the African government will not hold them responsible for the crime cos they care less about their citizenry. See what the Iranians are doing to the Saudi authorities. Calling them out and asking them to take responsibility and stop pointing wrong fingers. Hajj pilgrimage is a billion dollar business and a huge contribution to the Saudi economy. God is everywhere my people. Remember that and spend ur money wisely. May the Lord forgive the departed and be with their families.

  74. Abeed is an Arabic word which means black or slave. Africans and blacks decided to leave their way of life to adopt the Caucasian and arabian way of life and as a result they are treated a little lesser than monkeys and baboons. Things would never get better for blacks until we start to develop the ability to reason. Foreign religion has done us more harm than good
