African Migration Surges as Getting Into US All But ‘Certain,’ NYT Reports
5th January 2024
The number of African migrants settling in the United States has surged in recent months given the relative ease of crossing the southern border, the New York Times reported Friday.
“Getting into the United States is certain compared to European countries, and so I came,” Sekuba Keita, a 30-year-old Guinean migrant, told the Times.
Keita’s journey from Guinea took him first to Turkey and then to several Latin American countries before he reached the United States.
