The cruellest voyage
Artikelempfehlung
'I don't want my son to live the same life I have led. I don't want my family to suffer. We are all in the same world. Some people are suffering and some people are enjoying and I don't know the reason why."
In 1992, Kingsley Ofosu fled poverty in Ghana for the promised land of Europe. But the journey had barely begun when he witnessed the callous murder of his fellow stowaways. He escaped, and an article in the Guardian brought his story to the attention of the world. Hollywood and fame followed, but now he is back in Ghana, living in poverty again. Nick Davies, who wrote the original story, visits him in Accra and hears how it all went wrong
Habe vorhin im Zug im Guardian diesen Artikel gelesen. Ich will nicht sagen, dass ich geheult hätte, aber die Geschichte ging mir echt nahe. Werft mal einen Blick rein - auch, wenn die Seite des Guardian unattraktiv ist.
