Black Africans have no future in Tunisia – migrant

Written by on March 28, 2023

A migrant originally from Sierra Leone has told the BBC's Newsday programme that black people have no future in Tunisia due to escalating racial tensions with Arab people in the country.

"In Tunisia, black sub-Saharan Africans will not have a future here and neither will our children," said Josephus Thomas, a construction worker.

"We need evacuation," out of Tunisia he said, "even" if that meant going to another African country, he added.

Some countries have been offering to repatriate their citizens, such as Ivory Coast and Guinea.
