We
the undersigned would therefore like to call upon the Government of
Eritrea to ensure that our brothers and sisters who were the victims of
the boat tragedy in Lampedusa get a proper and respectful burial in
Eritrea, their homeland and land of ancestors. This tragedy has touched
every Eritrean soul, but we should do our up most to bring some
consolation to the families of the victims wh o suffer under the loss of
their loved ones. Every Eritrean death has a story, every victim has a
mother, a sister, a father, brother or wife mourning. Let these families
in grief know that we all care and suffer with them as a nation. This
tragedy should be faced together as a people. We are therefore asking
the Eritrean government to take the responsibility
of organizing the transport of our dead from the island of Lampedusa to their final resting place in Eritra, their country .
May our dead rest in peace.
