Ugnayan ng Manggagawang Migrante Tungo sa Pag-unlad (Umangat-Migrante) salute Francis Kwame, unbending fighter for the rights of refugees. He passed away in Hamburg on 20 March 2014.


Francis Kwame lived peacefully in Libya for 20 years, and worked for a German firm, Bifinger, for the last ten years. The NATO war of aggression against Libya forced him and other workers out of Libya. 

Braving the waters of the Miditerranean, he landed in Lampedusa in Italy. He could not get any protection from Italy, he was sent to Northern Europe. So, he finally ended up in Hamburg, where for the last three years he has joined the collective struggle to acquire asylum, work and a dignified life in Germany. These, however, have been denied him by the German authorities.


 The militant struggle that he and his fellow refugees in "Lampedusa in Hamburg" launched, strongly supported by solidarity organizations, blazes the path towards justice and freedom. It gives inspiration and strength to all others who fight and strive for national and social liberation.

Documents of Francis Kwarme issued in Italy
 Umangat-Migrante also convey their condolence and solidarity to refugee group “Lampedusa in Hamburg” and join them in their struggles for Migrant workers and refugee rights



WORK PERMIT FOR ALL REFUGEES IN EUROPE!

RESPECT THE RIGHTS OF REFUGEES!!!
