Ghanaian Migrant, Frederick Who Was Facing Deportation From Malta Commits Suicide

A Ghanaian migrant-Frederick Ofosu, 33, who was facing deportation from Malta committed suicide on Saturday after he was forced to “feel like a criminal” by a new immigration policy in that country.

According to The Times of Malta, he was found strangled with an electric cable in a Qawra building site on Saturday night–and he left a recorded message for friends explaining his despair, saying he was being forced to feel like a criminal when he had done no wrong.

Mr Ofosu is reported as having gone to Malta eight years ago, leaving Ghana because of extreme poverty.

He worked for a number of years, but after he lost his job he was faced with a number of demands from the authorities, including documentation he could never provide, said Ahmed Bugri, director for the Foundation for Shelter and Support for Migrants.

He committed SUICIDE by STRANGLING HIMSELF or do they mean he HANGED himself?

African governments have a lot of BLOOD of their African citizens on their hands.

I would like to know what our governments feel when they SEE the CORPSES of dead AFRICANS (including children and BABIES) lined up on a BEACH in Europe . What do they feel when they see AFRICANS leaving to sign up tom FORIEGN FORCES just for a better life.

We claim to be upset about the SLAVE TRADE but NOW we are the SLAVE TRADERS and the SLAVES.

ANOTHER  difference is that we NOW PAY to get on THE BOAT illegally to get to EUROPE and the USA.

Don't our so called LEADERS feel embarrassed?

WHEN will the DEVALUATION of AFRICA and AFRICANS stop?

The FAR RIGHT groups are WINNING elections around the WORLD - who will FIGHT our side when we CANNOT even live with ANOTHER fellow AFRICAN because of TRIBAL SENTIMENTS.

We need to STAND up and be COUNTED. We are ALSO PART of GOD's WORLD.

" The Malta Police have killed him " that is always what they say after they kill black people abroad.......(( If our african governments can fight for us and do autopsy of some of the black this white people kill for just the hate they have on black men ...It will surely prove the real source of there death )) But no body cares and the malta police will count minus one and life goes on.  Cant you guys see how the Libyan police was laghing at the dead black men on there seashore ?  We are living in the white mens World....Black man has no right in this World and i wonder when BLACK LIFE  will matter in this World ..........OH GOD WHAT DID BLACK MEN DO TO YOU THAT YOU FORSAKE US???  GOD PLEASE COME TO OUR RESCURE.
