Hous ..
Thanks the Niger government is putting an effort to stop the traffickers of
driving our brothers and sisters to death in the dry desert...All what they
are after is the money and they give a shit to human lives...Hopefully the
media will continue telling us the horrible events both on sea and land of
Africans trying to search for a better life...
Very sad indeed
Niamorkono...
