Avast ye scallywags! The British Parliament be sendin' some poor souls to Rwanda. Arrr, Rwanda be ready to welcome 'em with open arms. Let's hope they don't mistake 'em for booty and make 'em walk the plank instead!
In the language of a 17th century pirate, the land of Rwanda be ready to welcome migrants from the United Kingdom after the British Parliament gave approval to a bill to send some of them on a voyage to the East African country. The migrants be destined for a refurbished hostel in the vibrant Kagugu neighborhood of Kigali, where they will find shelter and orientation points about their new surroundings.The hostel, once home to college students orphaned in the 1994 genocide, stands ready to accommodate up to 100 souls. The plan, long opposed by human rights activists, aims to deter migrants from risking their lives in leaky boats to reach Britain, while also strengthening protections for migrants through a new treaty with Rwanda.The hostel offers amenities such as entertainment areas, sports facilities, and even a smoking room for those so inclined. Meals will be provided, and translators in various languages will assist the migrants during their stay. Those who choose to stay will receive support from the Rwandan government for five years, after which they will be expected to stand on their own two feet.
