Emmanuel was one of the Nigerian migrants rescued yesterday, from the Mediterranean by the Migrant Offshore Aid Station (MOAS). The Malta, Italian search and rescue agency shared the Nigerian migrant's photo today with the caption:
"Emmanuel is one of 8 children. For him, Europe is the only hope to care for his family in Nigeria. #RescueHumanity"
The reaction from it is anything but positive with many of them calling for Emmanuel to be sent back to Nigeria. See some of the comments and more photos of African migrants, including Nigerians, rescued yesterday, September 15th.
