Mr. Mohamed Omar Mohamed Talbi, Libyan Ambassador to Liberia, is calling on Africans, including their leaders, to jointly tackle the migrant crises in his country and on the continent. Protesters, who had gathered at the Libyan Embassy in Monrovia, had many inscriptions on placards including, “Black Africans are not commodities.”“Free our brothers and sisters now. Libya stop killing and torturing black African migrants; stop the modern-day slavery.”After he had received their petition, Ambassador Talbi vowed to take the message to the Libyan government. Video footage on Libya concerning the manhandling of black Africans migrants have since gone viral on social media. This has drawn stern condemnations from world leaders, including black Africans and their leaders.
