Heartbreaking to see this. These criminals making a fortune of the misery of these poor people.

There is a huge population explosion that has been going on for decades in sub Saharan African countries.

People are desperate to get the heck out of that dump and their governments miserably failed to bring in any development there.

People would rather die crossing the Mediterranean rather than stay in their motherland.

Europe will see more and more of these slave trade news in years to come.

My brother in law worked in several African countries and he is of the opinion that all African countries have same problems. That land cannot support all those people and their Govts and totally corrupt.

So baffling this is ,country where even the immigrants were doing well taken to the ground and finished up hardly any article faulting the western countries for this,the bias in the media is remarkable.

Ok, since this news does not involve my own country, I can afford to provide unapologetic indignation, strong disapproval and full condemnation for this vile act still going on in that god forsaken part of the world.

Sadly African governments don't even care about their citizens so they will do nothing about this. But why do they even go through Libya? It's like going through Syria to reach Turkey.

African countries need to control their population. There are already so many jobless people there and according to UN population of African continent will double within few decades. What will they do then?

The United Nations estimates that Africa's population will double to 2.5 billion by 2050. About 400 million of these people will live in Nigeria alone.

I initially thought this would be an article that talks about African immigrants being sold to differ agents who'd take them to Europe on the cheapest way possible compromising safety. Well this is worse.

The warring tribes, rampant poverty, severe droughts are part of African life.

Western nations throwing money at Africa is useless. They need comprehensive reforms and strong leadership.

It seems many know that they are going to get exploited and probably will be made to work like donkeys. But they prefer that over dying of hunger in their homeland.

Just read a few days ago that East Africa is bracing themselves for a severe drought again and almost 2 million people are going to face starvation.
