The Italian prime minister Giuseppe Conte, warmly gave some immigrants who were mistreated in Italy a permit of stay. According to the Italian newspaper(Republica Italiano) who related this heartwarming gesture from the prime minister says: This is a gesture of substance which, however, I am aware, Thomas will not give her back “, says Prime Minister Giuseppe Conte and on the face of Cinthia, who in the solemn setting of Palazzo Chigi receives the residence permit from the hands of the head of the government, tears. “For me, it is a gesture of love. I finally feel loved, “says the widow of Thomas Daniel, the 41-year-old Liberian immigrant who was overwhelmed and killed by a landslide on June 1 last while he was working on the black in an illegal construction site in Pianura. The Republica newspaper said that Cinthia had told the story of her husband, “treated like a ghost for 40 euros a day”
the drama of a couple who, since arriving in Italy eighteen years ago, does not see their three children left in Ghana; and the permit issued on humanitarian grounds that had been canceled by the security decrees strongly wanted by the then Minister of the Interior Matteo Salvini, turning them into irregulars at the mercy of the corporals. Conte also handed over the residence permit to Isaac Kwaku, Prince Donkor, and Patrick Ameyaw, the three Ghanaian workers who were with Thomas at the Pianura shipyard and managed to save themselves from the collapse in which Italian Ciro Perrucci also lost his life. “There is not a single cause for the death of Thomas and Cyrus,” the President of the Council pointed out, “but many causes: crime in the background, the corporal who compresses you in rights; there is also abuse, there is a background of racist behavior that we have to fight, there is a black economy. It is the interweaving of these realities that causes their deaths and also a serious irresponsible inattention towards safe conditions in the workplace. Isaac, Prince, and Patrick had also become irregular after the waiver of the permit for humanitarian reasons. Like Thomas and Cinthia, they live between Castel Volturno and Mondragone. The document they received yesterday has six months to go, renewable for another year. Accompanying them to Palazzo Chigi was the senator of the Mixed Group Sandro Ruotolo, the president of the Fernandes Center of Caritas Antonio Casale and Mimma D’Amico, of the former Canapificio social center, who mobilized after reading the story of Cinthia and Thomas. Next to them, the prosecutor Giovanni Melillo who, recognizing the four migrants as victims of exploitation in the workplace, asked the Caserta police to issue the permit and the commissioner Antonio Borrelli, who followed up the request. “We trust his humanity because it is time to overcome the horizon of the Bossi-Fini law which is the mother of all problems,” Senator Ruotolo told Conte.
“We have asked the Prime Minister for a reform that will do justice, including in Thomas’s name, to those who have lost their humanitarian residence permits in the last two years because of the security decrees. It’s about 100 thousand, two thousand in Castel Volturno alone. Conte has guaranteed that he will always be listening to find a solution for these “people who have become irregulars”. And his words struck us.” Casale invited the Premier to Castel Volturno when the Centre will turn 25 and speaks of the “historic moment. It is a quarter of a century that we have been working on this territory and we have always dreamed of bringing to the government the demands of a people made up of Italians, new citizens, young people, and young people. Patrick, who is 21 years old and has been in Italy since he was 16, relives the morning of the disaster: “I had gone to get the cement, I came back and I saw the wall collapse. So I ran away. I’m happy for the permit, now I hope to find a job.” Cinthia would also like to work, he carries on with the help of the church and Caritas. She is happy, but a worm does not give her peace: “Now that Thomas is gone, I wish to see my children again, This is also the case of the unknown immigrants during the regime of ex-prime (Matteo Salvini ).
