mrfarmer600:
as we all came on board in the big ship,the rescue teams inside the ship searched each and everyone of us if we were with drugs or weapons and we were all giving a hand band which signify the conditions of our state before they found us, and the band had numbers on it and we seated in groups the way we where rescued.
we were giving some kind of plastic nylon, the type that is used to wrap valentine gift to cover because it became cold and windy latter at night, we also saw the first set of group that left us, and there boat was almost in the point of sinking before rescue found them
we meant people also from other part of african country inside, the ship was filled with all of us who were illegal migrants.
some people where being take inside a room in the ship for questioning so to identify the driver of the boats and the assistant, mean while before we saw rescue an helicopter came to snap pictures of us, so they already new the people they were looking for.
after the investigation the driver and the assistant where separated from the rest of us, then they shared bread, fruit juice, and apples to all of us.
and at 1am in the night the meditarranean sea showed his real colour to us, and i saw for myself how it feels like to be in a ship when the sea was bad, it was just unbelievable how the sea waves was waving the big ship not to talk of the boat we were in, then i told to myself thank God rescue found us.
we spent three days on the big ship before we finally arrived in palermo the capital of italian island in sicily on sunday afternoon.
the italian immigration police, cameras and journalist were waiting for us to come down,but before we came down from the ship, doctors came into the ship and check our body for any infections and one dead body that was recovered by the rescue team was taken away.
as we came down from the ship we were given robber sanders to wear and our names and ages taken by the immigration officers before we entered a bus that took everyone to different camps.


well to end this story i would like to add what i think about all of this journey i did

1) coming into europe as an illegal migrants is a bad move

2) europe was not what my life that i put on the line, all do everyone has his or her own opinion about it.

3) everything is hard as a migrant, we a left to do cheap works for them or beg for money, for the girls i wont say anything cause you already know.
and some people would ask why did you not change to another europian county if you did not get you document in italy, well even if you did go and succeed to enter the next country be sure of you asylum application coming out negative cause the rules consigning migration has changed.
i wish to go back to my mothers land nigeria where i dont feel or see racism or trying to blend in all the time.

i just hope this changes somebodys life in any way, and if you ever want to travel out of nigeria make sure you take a flight to any of the country you wish to go, that way things will be easier for you there.

thanks for reading to the end and may god protect us from the hand of the wicked ones.........................THE END
Jesus Christ!!! People go through all these just to get to Europe?? God forbid abominable acts, even if you give me free visa and free flight ticket to Europe, I won't take it no to talk of going through the valley of the shadow of death!! This should top the list of 1000 ways to die! Nigeria is terrible no doubt and about the worst country anyone can be in, but hey people are still making it here. In this internet age, You can even bring Europe or America here by working and earning in dollars while still here! Physical boundaries are no longer barriers to anyone regardless of your country provided you have a skill you can offer online.
Shame on the African leaders especially that of Nigeria who failed to develop the country despite all the resources at their disposal. The masses also takes some of the blame for allowing incompetent and re.tar.ded people like Buhari to rule them. If the wicked Nigerian leaders have any conscience at all, they would have all been in sober reflection since the Libyan slavery and Mediterranean drowning of African migrants took center stage.
RIP to all those that died in the desert and the sea cry cry

After a while theyll stop picking them up.
Theyll just let the mediterranian swallow them. The rest dt get through to italy will probably be placed in some maximum security concentration camp where they're used for experiments & then burnt alive. They've done it before to migrant Jews.

Their societies are getting more angry, conservative and racist wt this migration problems. Once they all vote in right wing, hardline leaders like trump. The end.

I dont understand why most blacks always want sthn handed to them. If whites did not invent cars, ships and airlines, wouldnt we be in our farms eating with content? Why cant we build our societies wt our own hands, who are we leaving dt hardwork to? Our greatgrandchildren?
They can't do such because there would be outrage from the international community. For this problem to be solved it has to be tackled from the root. My suggestion would be for the Europeans to colonize Africa again to clean up the continent since Africans can't do it themselves. The migrants wouldn't have any sufficient motivation anymore for leaving their lands and seeking greener pastures.

wow so nothing can be Done?

anyway since Italy isn't complaining i guess what's my own?
Italians are actually complaining. Europeans nations hold meetings about the issue.

At a point Europeans may take measures to depopulate Africa in a quiet way that many wouldn't suspect. Many Africans would suddenly become infertile. It's very easy to do.

Yeah well. This was what everyone thought of the nazi party. They can never get power, d Germans & d intl community won't accept their racist policies. Then the German economy collapsed and everyone blamed it on Jewish migrants. Guess what, the whole country voted the nazis and they honored their mandate, in its gruesome gory.

You never know what man is capable of doing when pushed to the wall. It's just best not to test it. But human beings are greedy so history will always repeat itself.

Also, the solution is not to be recolonized. As in the past, the country will just be robbed and the pple dehumanized in some way. Like in South Africa. There's no such thing as a free lunch or service. Everyone's in it for sthn. The only solution is for our people to build the country we want, based on our beliefs and principles. We need to raise our children wt the ideals we hold dear. Everything else is a bandaid dt won't last. And it's not impossible. It's bin done in Botswana, Dubai, Singapore.etc. Even if it means disbanding the country, in order to move forward. But these conversations need to be had and determined by us. The white man doesn't really care & really it's not their responsibility.

Taking a look at the situation of things in Africa, in my opinion it would be easier for foreigners to intervene and set things straight in Africa than for Africa to suddenly wake up just like that and start doing the right thing. If and whenever Africa wake's up on its own its not something to happen overnight. It would take many years, probably about 400 years cos we so far behind. Our situation will have to get worse first before getting better due to the rapid increase in population. The migration situation will get worse too as the population increases. Heaven knows the next measures Europeans will be taking to solve the problem.

pls I need ur advice on how to travel to Germany?
Advice to travel to germany the jesus style or the satan style? Welk for the satan style, its very easy. From lagos or wherever you stay to sokoto state, from sokoto, cross border to niger republic, from there to burkinafaso then to mali. Your first test na kalahari desert and the the great sahara desert before you get to libya (leads to italy) but i go advice you to take morrocco route. That one go land you for spain but be ready to cross the great meditteranian sea for both. If you no sabi swim incase boat capsize, ur on your own. Once you get to spain, work well for like 2 years and avoid government trouble. Do not leave spain without collecting your proper documents then i advice you to port to one of those sheghen nations and start your life. With time, things go make sense. Just avoid government trouble and work hard coz anywhere u land for europe, you go meet many nigerians like you(you r not alone) some tempting you to smuggle drugs and do illegal things. Pls don't listen to them. Just accept the fact that na just you and your God for another mans land.

At some point?...and we wouldn't suspect? Bro...we've reached that point and you don't even suspect. Population control is already in operation.....two means..... viral infection.... and by vaccinations. Do you know Bill Gates is the biggest advocate for population control?...and is big on getting vaccines to Africans period?

Remember I said "many wouldn't suspect". The fact that you are aware of it doesn't mean everyone else is also aware. MANY are still not aware or suspect anything going on. I also said "at some point" because no one in Africa knows for sure when the plan is in full swing. Even you yourself isn't even fully 100% sure of what is going and the timing of events.

OP you are a living testimony to the struggle crossing to coloured world, God will take you to greater heights. As for me i choose a different part i move to Dakar few weeks ago using Ethiopian Airline, this city is very okay well infrastructured, steady electricity, peaceful but terrible transportation system and cost of living is very high fortunately for me my sis is Europe(scadivannia) with her kids and a citizen.
Now you might wonder why can't she just take me to Europe from Nigeria but its not as easy as you might think although i applied for visa but didn't continue with the process. In Dakar you see foreigners especially women mostly from Europe marrying black guys, they do they marriage in Dakar.. Why Dakar is safe and they are willing to come meet you unlike naija. As am talking to my sis in Europe paid and registered me in European dating sites i have quite a few European women chatting with my real face, sofar you are a paid member your chances will increase... Sometimes you have to move to other African countries its important to have travel history... Everyone have there own perspective but do whatever it takes first to leave Nigeria then Europe.

But to be honest I support the depopulation IF it will be done by only inhibiting fertility and not unleashing some deadly virus. It will go a long way to improve life in Africa. As the situation stands there is so much poverty in Africa while Africans still reproduce rapidly. It can't continue like this. Why bring in more humans when the ones existing are not even cared for? It only makes the poverty and migration situation worse.

If the population of Nigeria is reduced to 2 million... half of us will be happy... because we'll now have a better chance of migrating legally. Migration s mainly a mentality problem. .... not being willing to fiX our main local problem.... corrupt politicians.... when we are the ones that have the power to do so. We do not hold those we voted in accountable. Other countries do...the reason they are making progress and we are not. We prefer to run away.

If the population goes down to 2 million the situation will greatly improve that I don't think anyone will bother migrating for a better life unless you only want to change environment. At 2 million population in a country the size and wealth of Nigeria it will be easier to lift everyone out of poverty. We will all be comfortable because the resources available will go round everybody. Unemployment will be 0% because there will be shortage of labour and people will be begged to come and work. Minimum wage will be so high like you are earning a salary in an oil company. It will be easier to educate the population and provide healthcare for all. Life will be great.

Really?....look at our current population...look at the natural resources we have.... our arable lands.... our population density.... generally free of natural disasters..... aren't we supposed to be a booming country? Compare with other countries with as large populations but very limited natural resources..... our leaders have no vision, no will nor intentions of guiding Nigeria to prosperity... our citizens make no effort to hold fire to their feet..... but hope someday ..somehow...things will magically change. On our own..we have no capita to even start a business....but in the twinkling of an eye.... we find capital to travel to Europe...illegally. 2 million people...nothing will change.

I don't think our problem is just a leadership problem. Many of us blame our leaders but I don't see it that way because it is not the ROOT of the problem. Our leadership problem is only a manifestation of the failure of the ROOT. Our leaders come from the general population. If our leaders are bad then there must be something wrong with the general population of Nigeria. When you pick 10 Apples from a certain basket of Apples and they are all bad then something must be wrong with the whole basket of Apples. Using this analogy it's obvious something is actually wrong with the general population of Nigeria to always generate waves of bad leaders. Now the question is, what exactly is wrong with general population of Nigeria which breeds bad leaders? My own answer to the question is LACK OF EDUCATION. When I say "lack of education" in this context I don't mean not having a ph.D or B.sc. I actually mean not having a modern and advanced understanding of life and how we ought to live and interact together in a community. This is what I feel is the ROOT problem of Nigeria and not just bad leaders. The people are the problem. It's a thing of psychology. Educating and changing the mindset of our entire population to make us start doing the right thing is not something to happen overnight. It will take many years. Something like 400 years. We are simply still evolving.
