Nigerian police raid a baby-selling hospital. Nigerian authorities raided a hospital where they believe newborns were being sold, reports the BBC. They discovered the private hospital when a pregnant 17 year old girl escaped. There are now seven young women, found during the raid, that are now in the government’s care. They were kept in the hospital for months, waiting to give birth. The babies they would give birth to could have been sold for just $127 (or 15,000 naira) to traffickers known for selling children into slavery or prostitution. Police have arrested the hospital’s owners along with two nurses for their connection to the illegal activity. The country, unfortunately, is no stranger to such baby selling schemes, reportedly. Several other such cases have emerged in recent years. Pregnant women, who aren’t married and are living in poverty, are faced with desperate circumstances, reports the BBC. In Nigeria, abortion is illegal for the most part.
Haiti’s president to U.S.: Stop deportation! The president of Haiti, Rene Preval, has asked the U.S. to stop deporting Haitian illegal immigrants, reports the Caribbean News. Instead, he’d like the country to grant them temporary protected status (TPS). The Caribbean nation was already declared the poorest in the western hemisphere before being hit by four consecutive storms that killed 800 people and devastated several towns and infrastructure. Because of the hardships his country is facing Preval told the Americans Conference in Florida that the U.S. would be making a mistake if they continued deporting Haitians. “This is a chance for the U.S. administration to put in place for Haitians, the temporary protected status,” he said at the conference. In addition, even though he already talked to President George Bush about the situation, he will also write him a letter. Two U.S. congressmen from Florida have also been urging Bush to permanently stop deporting Haitians in light of the nation’s difficulties.
HAITI!!!..What are you talking about !!!..Your people vote Democratic and that is a No. No. ‘Cubans’. Vote Republic and that is a Go.Go. Its all about your race and who you will back up!!!
lynn tell it like it really iz. Here in Ameri-(KKK). Anything dark is not considered at all. They do not even have a hold on the spanish speaking and slang spanish speaking problems. They are the ones that they allowed to make yt lose a lot of ground and possessions and I am glad about it. Look what free labor did to them.
lynn and typee0 you too need to get a life and stop being so dame racist because you both want to talk about sending my black people back where they came from when your sorry ass aint even the real americans its the dame native americans, so you’ll are immigrants too fool!
Makes you wonder why they are so willing to send Haitians back but keep Cubans??………For one Cuba has nuclear weapons,Haiti of course does not
so Haiti is not a threat to the US,many Cubans are dark skin but yet the white looking Cubans actualy think they are white!,why is it if a Cuban makes it to US soil they get to stay??,but Haitians get sent back??
Black and Proud, if you would stop and read what lynn and typee0 wrote you would understand. Republicans deport the Haitians because they don’t support them, unlike the Cubans, who do. They’re not talking about sending them home. They’re talking about the politricks of the Republicans as to why they’re being sent home and not the Cubans that are also illegal immigrants. As far as I see it, if you are on American soil already, and, I’m positive a lot of immigrants have been here for many years,don’t deport them. A lot of them are already established in the US.
