More Than 100 Rescued Migrants Stranded in Cameroon

Moki Edwin Kindzeka

   EBODJE, SOUTHERN CAMEROON - More than 100 migrants from Togo, Burkina
   Faso, Nigeria and Benin are stranded in Cameroon after they were
   rescued by the central African state's military from their capsizing
   vessel in the Atlantic Ocean. The migrants, who are calling on their
   governments for help, say they do not have food or money.

   One-hundred-seventeen men, women and children lie on the bare floor at
   the government school in Ebodje, a Cameroon village on the west coast
   of Africa near the Atlantic Ocean.
