Mr. Quu. Keep up the good work. This is a very serious and disturbing news that now recently
people can go the extra mile of immigrating from one country to the other. So information coming
in in hazard that around I mean estimated around 500 Sumalians and route to South Africa. Now now
their method of going to South Africa is crazy. I'd never seen this. I've seen a number of I mean
people trying to immigrate in several ways but I think this is the craziest. So these people were
packed in a tanker in a tanker which should be car carrying fuel. I'm not sure it was carrying
through at the time but allegedly this boat drive the tanker driver and they were parked into the
tanker. Now when these guys got to Somalia the heat was unbearable. One person allegedly passed
away and that was when the people decided to stop in Somalia before they all lose their lives. And
that was when the driver of the tanker escaped and the people were rescued by the Zambian police in
Capiri Moshi in Zambia. I mean a very quiet town but that was what happened in that particular town
and it is so crazy because these people were on a dangerous desperate journey heading all
the way to South Africa and that is a journey of thousands of kilometers through multiple
borders desert forest and endless danger. But these guys were ready to risk their lives all
the way to rest South Africa. And when officers in Zambia finally caught them and opened the tanker,
it was unbearing and crazy with people crawling out of the tanker. It was an
eyesaw and crazy people crawling out of their tanker, barely breathing with their eyes swollen,
clothes soaked with full residue and exhausted bodies collapsing on the ground. My goddess. Now,
some of the people were crying and some were silent. They could barely talk. And tragically,
according to an early and eyewitness report, one person lost his life because he couldn't survive
the horrifying journey. Now, according to reports coming from authorities, they are saying that the
driver abandoned the vehicle and fled the moment he realized that the operation had exposed a full
manhunt is now underway to I mean find this driver and allegedly he charged everybody an amount of
money to take them to South Africa. And they are saying this is not his first time. In fact,
it's a business that these underworld people have been doing and this time it only backfired.

channel. This is what is going on. Uh these are illegal immigrants in this tanker. They
were all inside the tanker. It's happening now live and live in a [ __ ] turn off all these.
So it was very hot and others have died just there in the inside the tanker.
All these are Somalians from Somalia. They came all the way
all the way.
It's happening right now at the scene. This is what is happening at Capiritan off. This
is what is happening at Capiritan off right now. Yeah. Here these all these are illegal immigrants
from Somalia. They are illegal immigrants from Somalia. They walked away. I'm told
uh some have just died inside the the tanker. We don't know yet how many
but this is what is happening right now beaming lives here in that period. Now,
the Zambian immigration are yet to release an official statement to this, but sources say
that this may be part of a much larger smog network that transport migrant from Eastern
Africa through Tanzania and Zambia down to South Africa. That's what they saying. They're saying
it is not a new thing. I mean, it is something which is there that they've been doing. They man
people can do things oh in the means of getting a better life people can get into a tanker cara
wow to reach South Africa that's amazing though now can you even think of what these people have
gone through the torture in fact the road from Somalia to South Africa is brutal and the risk
the starvation And now the arrest, the extortion and even death. But still many are back on this
journey believing it may be their only chance at a better life. Wow. Amen. People can really risk
their life. So you know I always say something that immigration is good. In fact there is no
better life than living in your home country. There is no better life than that. In fact,
you are better off living in your country a popper than going to somebody's country and living
illegally. You can barely go out. You can barely work. You can barely earn a decent living and life
in general becomes unbearable if you I mean decide to live in someone's country illegally. I mean a
lot of people can attest to this. If you decide to leave illegally, I mean it is always better
when you have a certain skills to offer and you can go to the country legally legally through the
approved ways. It may take time. I mean sometimes it it take years but it is the best way. Trust you
with me. The moment you get to a country legally man you are better off. You have quality of life.
You have a place to lay your head and you can even immediately start working. But if you resort to
illegal means, in fact, you'll be extorted because people who decide to use illegal means always get
extorted. Like these people, you'll be surprised that this each of these person was charged like
around $1,000 or even at at least $500. If you are to find or use the approved route, even with
$1,000, you can go to South Africa from Somalia. I'm just guessing it's possible $1,000 or more,
you can go to South Africa, leave legally, and live a peaceful life. But if you decide to go
illegally and pay huge sums of money to these people, and these guys are not alone. If you go
to I mean Eastern Africa and um yeah, eastern Eastern Africa and other parts, even sometimes
in West Africa is there, but just West Africa, I mean the people are getting the light. So it's not
that much. at those areas you pay huge s of money to I mean go to Spain to go to Europe on the boat
you are 50% likely to die to lose your life and if you die you've lost everything so guys that is
what is happening as an Africans you need to shine your eyes open your eyes I mean check your borders
because in fact if I was an immigration officer personally checking a fuel tanker thinking that
people could be hidden inside a fuel tanker. Amen. That's crazy. But it has happened. And elsewhere
too, some Mongolians have also been arrested, they dressed like sheep and they were mixed
with sheeps who were allegedly transported to Spain. Unfortunately for them, they said when the
sheep were going out, they realized what kind of sheeps are walking like this. And lo and behold,
they got and these guys were real human beings who have been disguised as as as sheeps in sheep's
clothing. Anyway guys, so that is the news that is coming. I will leave you with the story coming.
What do you make of this story? Is this normal? Do you see this? Am I being too surprised or is it a
normal thing? Don't forget to leave your comment in the comment section. It's a wrap for today.
