Nigerian Migrants Shares Ordeal Lost It All Crossing Mediterranean Sea

I like his spirit though, this man is hopeful regardless.  Sadly due to the situation of most economy in West Africa thousands of African migrants are trying to cross the Mediterranean in desperate search for better lives and many of them lost their lives in its deep waters. Kingsley from Nigeria was lucky enough to cross the sea in a small inflatable boat losing everything but his hope.
Many African migrants make long and dangerous journey in search of better fortunes. However, instead of refuge in Europe hundreds of them find their grave in deep waters of Mediterranean.

Those who were lucky enough to survive, often lose everything during dangerous sea journey. Kingsley from Nigeria managed to cross Mediterranean in a small inflatable boat.
Few attempts to cross Mediterranean in inflatable boats become successful. Recently recorded footage, made by a captain of a cargo ship in Mediterranean, shows migrants narrowly escaping their deaths in sinking inflatable boat. The death toll for migrants from Nigeria and other African countries drowned in Mediterranean Sea since the beginning of 2015 is already worse than the death toll for Titanic catastrophe. More than 1500 people have found their death in its waters since January, comparing with 96 for the same period of time in 2014.
