A video showing a large number of Africans crossing the Sahara Desert on foot has surfaced online, getting a lot of people talking.

In search of greener pastures and a better life, these people have chosen to walk across the desert, undeterred by the risks. Could this be a result of poor leadership across Africa?

Please watch the video and let us know your thoughts in the comments.

Oooops, I forgot I can only post 4 photos at a time, these days.

Before before na Benin people and some Easterners sabi do this walka well... but now e done turn national issue. I think say na trucks dey convey dem because these ones walka reach 4km exhaustion go set in because that environment is arid and dry.

You go know how bad & hopeless it had been for them b4 embarking on such a treacherous journey. RIP to more than half of them in advance. But our government needs to do more to curb poverty.
We don't have enough laws to check corruption and we don't punish defaulters as we should

We are too racial conscious than the whites

Its no ones fault you came from the part of the world. The World owes you nothing

All our raw materials are over there so they are going to process them. Crude oil is largely being processed there. Cocoa too. Coffee too. Beneseed too. Fabric and cotton. Machineries. Even education.

Africa is being deserted due to bad leadership.

Where’s your location

Even this route don cost
1 milli from Benin-City to Libya now

All fun and games until they get intercepted by heavily armed Tuaregs. Those Tuaregs will take all their money, belongings, food, water and leave them to a cruel fate.

They should go, let more reasonable people take over their land

Let us come together and hold our government accountable....una say No

When some of these bros finally make it to the UK, they will be claiming 14/15 so as to be eligible for foster care or placed in a children residential home!

Worked with some who claimed to be 14/15 but were certainly in their early 20s until age assessment is done.

For majority, it is chasing suicide.

How can we start, tpain want kill us finish

Since Europeans and other developed countries swore that Black African nations will never develop, we will continue to disturb them and possibly take over their land. There is nothing they can do about it because it's natural payback.


Europeans and Americans will glaringly support corrupt politicians to take over leadership of African countries, they will open their doors wide open for these corrupt black African leaders to come in and hide their loot and family members in their country while they destroy African countries with corrupt tribalistic leadership like Bola Tinubu is doing

At the end, they leave African youths with no other option than to migrate to Europe and other developed and developing countries for survival.



If they want this dangerous African migration to stop, European countries, USA and every other developed country must stop welcoming African leaders and their children in their countries.


Whenever we complain about election rigging, take it serious and ban such President or Governor from entering your country with his family.


Will they do these things? NO!


So they should brace up for more migrant crises in their countries

Sadly, not all of them will make it to their destinations

better than staying in a country with no Judiciary but wike and Tinubu

Hundreds of years ago the Europeans and Americans chase Africans, set traps for those who try to outsmart them and kidnap many of them to be used as slaves in either of Europe and americas. The stubborn, rebellious and unruly ones are not spared but exiled for life out of their ancestral homes. Taking you to their place was seen as a terrible and horrendous fate.
Today it is the Africans that are begging the Europeans and Americans to come and capture them and yet going every length and risking their life in full force just to get there and belong to them.

Even if they make it to Italy na still suffer dey await them . 🥲

The energy they should have used to confront their wicked leaders.

I don't pity anyone of them that perish
