Off The Grid - Agadez, The Migrant Mirage

Agadez, is at the heart of Europe migrant crisis. The last stop for West Africans before the most dangerous leg of their journey: crossing the Sahara desert.
Europe wants to stop them from coming. And Niger is now trying to stop them from going. We went to Agadez to meet the people risking it all to fulfill their European dream. And those still trying to smuggle them into Libya despite the government crackdown.

    This happened, unfortunately, because they based their economy on tourism. Money should have went to urban development.

    It is the only reliable brand in Africa. For some reasons , it can withstand the hot climate without over heating. Was using a Mazda prior to now, every time it breaks down. Switched to a highlander used it till I got tired, moved to a Camry, still using it and now finally moved to Lexus. Which is a more luxurious Toyota.
