Nigerian family prays on the deck of a ship after being rescued at sea off libya shores (photo)

Why risk the lives of your children like this? Is Nigeria that bad that you would put them in a boat in the unsafe waters to take them to another country? Continue...

1500 Europe-bound African men, women and children were rescued in the last 48 hours off Libya shores by Libyan Coast Guard and MSF Sea. The illegal African migrant were stranded at sea on the verge of drowning as they were cruising on rubber boats towards Europe. Among those rescued by MSF Sea is this Nigerian couple and their children.

Reports say that illegal immigration is surging especially with the start of spring, which is very suitable for immigration by sea. There are currently at least 300 thousand migrants in Libya waiting for a chance to be smuggled by boat to Europe.

You see what am saying, there is no other state in Nigeria they can move to, they must all go to Europe! There are many other Nigerians putting their lives at risk.. The thing is just annoying, grateful for the lives of the children

Stupid husband.
Stupid wife.
The hundreds of thousand you pay to smugglers if put into a business, you will live well in Nigeria.
Nigerians are the most greedy set of humans on earth and I liken them to cows always looking for greener pasture.

They will only turn to beggars in Europe

I don't blame the man. The country is getting tougher and unbearable by the day.

KWEEN said...

Even as illegal immigrants? How will they get access to these needs without being deported afterwards? The truth is, as long they're illegal immigrants , their lives may even be harder in Europe. It works out for some... Mostly those who go alone. But a man with many mouths to feed like this one will have a really tough time catering for all of them in this situation.

Silly religious people, always doing stupid shit then later they'll close eyes and mumble words like that takes their stupidity away.

Look at the innocent kids he wants to condemn to a horrible death. Someone will say God is good forgetting that this is just one lucky fool outta the lot that drown with their families.
