Do you understand what just happened in the Mediterranean?
A rubber boat carrying 55 souls set off from Al-Zawiya, Libya.
By the early hours, it sank.
Fifty-three people are gone forever.
Among them were two innocent babies.
Only two Nigerian women survived.
Two mothers alone, facing the horror of losing everyone else.
Can you even imagine that grief?
They risked everything for safety.
For peace.
For a life away from fear.
And yet, Africa continues to bleed.
Since Gaddafi’s fall, Libya has never been the same.
Peace disappeared. Violence rules.
The same NATO that killed Gaddafi did not care about the people.
They wanted oil. They wanted control.
And now, African lives are just numbers on a page.
This tragedy is part of a growing nightmare.
484 migrants dead on the Central Mediterranean route in 2026.
375 in January alone.
We normalize death. We normalize violence.
And yet, people still risk everything.
Do we learn from the past?
Or do we keep sending our brothers, sisters, and children to the sea to die?
This is more than a disaster.
This is a warning.
Africa is not safe.
And the world continues to watch.
