UN: More than 7 Million Children Displaced in West, Central Africa Every Year

FILE - Refugees from Central Africa wait in Cameroonian Garoua Boulaï border town for foods and clothes.

More than 7 million children in West and Central Africa are displaced every year, the United Nations children's agency said in a report released Wednesday.

Lack of economic opportunities, wars and climate change are forcing more than 12 million people in West and Central Africa to migrate annually, the report said.

"Children in West and Central Africa are moving in greater numbers than ever before, many in search of safety or a better life," UNICEF regional director Marie-Pierre Poirier said.

The only way to prevent an eventual mass migration from the African 4th world to the civilized world, will be to cut off relations with Africa and "wall the place off".

Otherwise, an invasion is in-waiting.

Yeah, the people there who have tried mining and farming which could have fed the place have been killed or left. Africa needs to solve its problems, exporting people isn't going to do it. (That's been tried and it made a helluva mess).

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
