IT was a sad story when a man recounted how he had to throw his two children overboard after they died of starvation in a migrant boat on their way to Italy. http://www.nigeriamasterweb.com/paperfrmes.html |

It is very terrible, i came to Europe through Tripoli after crossing the Sahara desert 4 3days, we boarded a zodiac and made a 16hrs trip thru the Mediterranean sea after paying $1300 it was really terrible i saw pple die due to exhaustion,zodiac capsizing. But to God be the glory i have my stay now. Men the trip is not worth risking God Save 9geria |

Re: 2 Nigerian Children Starve To Death On Immigration Boat by lucabrasi(m): 8:58pm On Jul 29, 2008 |
$$ken$$:my guy you need to package this into a documentary o,at least for people back home to see the dangers and know what to expect before embarking on the journey i still cant get my head round why the man didnt just leave the children in nigeria |
Re: 2 Nigerian Children Starve To Death On Immigration Boat by sskenss: 1:32am On Jul 30, 2008 |
@lucabrasi Broda na waoooo i can still remember that during our trip we even got lost at the Sahara desert and we sent 1more wk trying to find our route that was the most dangerous part of the journey i lost 2 of my close friends that made the journey with me.Even at Tripoli we where eating 2wice a week. When you are crossing the Mediterranean sea pray, my boda, pray that no Ship or vessel sail close to your zodiac unless broda na DISASTER. I can still remember a zodiac that went undersea taking with it 30 pple this still gives me nightmare. infact men gat to go |

$$ken$$: So are U an "Illegal Immigrant". |
Re: 2 Nigerian Children Starve To Death On Immigration Boat by KarmaMod(f): 2:21am On Jul 30, 2008 |
I'd like to believe Nigeria really isnt that bad where people have to bury their kids at sea |
Re: 2 Nigerian Children Starve To Death On Immigration Boat by Ijiji1(m): 2:34am On Jul 30, 2008 |
This is something I never seem to understand, why would someone like $$ken$$ pay up to $2000 to go through all this trouble to get to Europe and end up as an Illegal Immigrant just to be some farm hand or a dish washer in some fast food restaurant. With that kind of money why can't he invest it in some business in Nigeria. A lot of folks in Nigeria still think America "don't know much about Europe" is still the land flowing with milk and honey. If only the know how hard folks work here and most of that money gets back into the system through taxes and bills. |

Re: 2 Nigerian Children Starve To Death On Immigration Boat by StephenP(m): 6:41am On Jul 30, 2008 |
Nigeria isn't that bad that you'll take little kids on a risky journey that even full grown adults have died trying to finish. I don't know about you guys but I'll rather stay in Nigeria than risk my life just to be a janitor somewhere. I'm so mad that all the dude did was throw their bodies in the oceans like nothing happened. Well, now them Italians are going to deport him and his kids' memories will haunt him forever. In the end, you'll wonder whether it was really worth it. |
Re: 2 Nigerian Children Starve To Death On Immigration Boat by SeanT21(f): 8:23am On Jul 30, 2008 |
$$ken$$: I will never go on such a journey. Ijiji1: I was thinking more of 3 girls and 2 boys. We can name the boys after You!! |
Re: 2 Nigerian Children Starve To Death On Immigration Boat by lucabrasi(m): 12:29am On Jul 31, 2008 |
the way i see it is that,prospective travellers never get told the reality untill they are at a point of no return,in a documentary i saw i think they get told its straightfoward and u just move sort of like a boy scout adventure from one country to the other till u get to spain and just get assylum,remember these people are desperate and dont have enough to get a visa and ticket @$$ken$$ wow,thats realli serious,at least now u have your immigration status regularised and have a sucessful life,did you set off on your own or are there like agents or tour guides who escort you ppl? for people who think its not that bad,hmmn you have not seen desperate o,i think what propels people to go through all that is just "hope,hope,hope"of something better in the horizon though the man has no excuse for making his children go through that and i agree with siena |

Re: 2 Nigerian Children Starve To Death On Immigration Boat by lucabrasi(m): 10:55am On Aug 02, 2008 |
i wish an african who has actually gone through the horrors will do an authentic documentary on how the journey is and the horrors involved,the documentaries we see on tv are from journalists or people who have not undergone the journey themselves |
