In their quest to escape the economic hardships in some parts of the African continent, migrants have sought to travel for greener pastures in Europe.
Their route to Europe has been one of a life and death journey, as desperation leads them through the saharan smuggling route in Agadez through to Libya before finally trying their luck in crossing the Mediterranean sea to Italy.
These migrants were unlucky however, as the boat they boarded started deflatin in the middle of the ocean, with many afloat.
A distressed Nigerian migrant recorded the incident, whilst crying out of for help.
