To know what is happening under the ground you must ask the rabbit and to know what is happening in Deutschland about deportation, social exclusion, discrimination, rascism and other human rights violations ask me, Akubuo. I will tell you and prove this to you.
I have chewed water in Deutschland and know that water here is very hard.
I am pleading to everybody to join me in the campaign for deportation stop. And moreover, the abolition of the Landkreis system and the apartheid family politics in Germany. You can imagine being controlled under the Landkreis system and being forcibly removed to another town or city. You can also imagine being arrested, detained and later deported to a country where you are facing persecution, torture and possibly death. You can imagine a situation where police, the housemaster or the housecaretaker of an Asylheim, the welfare office, the foreign office, the courts collaborate to effect a deportation. What also happens is that the refugee is given an expensive fine that is not possible for him to pay. So when he cannot pay, he ends up in prison, and after prison he is punished for the second time by his deportation - which is double punishment.
From my own experiences, I underwent police physical torture and also torture in the prison by security guards. I survived a life-threatening overdose of dangerous drugs given to me by a doctor in the prison. This was in fact attempted murder. They also falsified documents to attempt to make sure I was deported (Ausländerbehörde, Frau Maas and Ausländerangelegenheiten, Frau W. Schipmann). Following all this, I underwent a brutal attempt to be seriously criminalized, when an unknown person set fire in my room and the police came and took evidence and failed to expose the bandit. I mentioned suspects to the police and this was ignored because they were German citizens. I was denied all rights during my time in deportation prison. I reported this to my lawyer, who did absolutely nothing. The prison authorities labelled my cell door "Gewalttätig", which means brutal and aggressive.
In my Asylheim I was humiliated because my personal possessions where either stolen or destroyed.
I also suffered injustice at the hands of the court on more than three occasions. The health authority also denied me treatment that the doctor said I needed badly. The welfare office gave me a voucher which created problems for me with the supermarket owners. As a result I was banned from shopping at some supermarkets. All these things, which agonized and tormented me, were designed in order to break me and to try to stop my political work in the anti-rascist and anti-deportation struggle, and because I didn\\\\'t give up in fighting my own deportation.
All these abuses I reported to amnesty international, the Refugee Council, the UNHCR, Red Cross International and the police with no response or results. I view their attitude towards me as a collaboration with the German system. That is why we started the Caravan and I became involved with THE VOICE AFRICAN FORUM. The Caravan and THE VOICE AFRICAN FORUM work in the interest of refugees and fight for results.
Even when I was in prison, there were cases of disappearances. Listen to me attentively. You can imagine: because of deportations some people disappeared in prison. One man named John from Nigeria on 12 Nov 1997 disappeared in the hands of the security men because he resisted deportation. They forced him out of the prison in the pretence that they wanted to take him to the embassy to get his travel documents, and that\\\\'s the end of John, my tribesman. Note again a good friend whilst in prison in Lübeck disappeared in his room after he was tortured by security men in prison on 12 Dec 1997. The man by name Tijani, whose nationality was from the Niger Republic, my next-door neighbour, cried helplessly, screaming my name: "Akubuo...! I am dead!" The securiy men were busy working on him, who cried and cried and cried until I couldn\\\\'t hear from him any longer. That was his end. That\\\\'s how he disappeared. And that\\\\'s how I saw him last. The following day I noticed that the security men were busy cleaning and scrubbing his room.
If I tried to tell all the atrocities going on because of deportation, I would need another ten days congress. Remember all the atrocities committed in this country over 50 years ago were blamed on Hitler, and all these atrocities committed within ten years ago: then now who is to be blamed? Is it Hitler who is no more? Or the Germans, the owners of this country? Or the refugees? A word is enough for a wise. Do unto others what you would like others to do to you. Help the refugees to help you.
Stops deportations! It is not refugees\\\\' responsibility. It is your responsibility. If you need the help of refugees, the refugees will be ready to assist you.
On this very issue I want to explain how I resisted deportation, how I was taken to the Nigerian embassy without success. They forced me to go there with falsified documents. I layed allegations against the security men and a foreign office official in Lübeck, whose name is Frau Maas. I also denied my identity which made it difficult for them to get my travel documents, but in reaction I was given a lot of sanctions. Frau Maas vowed that I must be deported, alive or dead. That even if the courts set me free, that she will never release me and I wrote to her superior, Frau W. Schippmann.She also vowed that if she cannot deport me within six months, she will send me back to my Landkreis. In collaboration with the workers in the prison I was given a lot of sanctions, and I refused to give up. Later I was released and sent to my Landkreis, and in my Landkreis again my foreign office official (Herr Lawrence) one day in 1998 visited me in my Asylheim with about 8 armed policemen and took me away. I begged, I pleaded with them, because I was sick, but they ignored me. They put me in the police strong room, where I spent the night. The next day they took me again to the embassy and still I resisted and made everything difficult for them. Again I denied my identity. They failed again to get the travel documents.
Finally, to the best of my knowledge, they gave the embassy kick back and obtained my travel documents without my knowledge. They came yet again and arrested me, took me to court, and before I got to the court, the court had already decided my case. I was not allowed to call my lawyer, I was not allowed to defend myself, and so I found myself in prison to be deported within three days. I was taken to the airport. There was a strong campaign, and I was brought back and put again in prison, where I spent one month. And now I am still here even without Ausweis, and I have made myself a citizen of Deutschland.
My next campaign may be lunching or a donation to save the lives of victims of social exclusion in Germany, which will be care of THE VOICE AFRICAN FORUM.
Stop discrimination,
stop illegalization,
stop fascism,
stop the apartheid family politics in Germany,
stop social exclusion,
stop the nonsence food-Gutschein,
stop deportation!
Those are the sharpest end of racism.
Thanks and God bless.
