Asylum-seekers Stuck in Cyprus' Cramped Camp Want Out
2021-02-07
[AnNahar] Emmanuel Conteh negotiates the muddy, rutted pathways in shorts and torn plastic flip-flops and says he can't sleep in his heavy canvas tent at night because of the cold. He laments the "hellish" conditions in ethnically divided Cyprus' cramped Pournara migrant reception camp, where he's been living for the past two months after flying to the breakaway Ottoman Turkish Cypriot north and then clandestinely crossing into the internationally recognized south.
To someone who can afford a $1300 flight from Sierra Leon to Turkish Cyprus, such conditions are definitely below standard. And the ...[your adjective here] ought not be wasting everyone’s time and taking aid intended for people in desperate need.
He says he fled his native Sierra Leone because he was persecuted for refusing to follow in his father's footsteps and practice a kind of witchcraft.

"The head of this society, they want to train me, but I refused," said Conteh.
What an entitled little brat.
He wants Cypriot authorities to swiftly process his asylum application
