The Asylum seekers in Nauru demand we will continue our hunger strike until getting our rights till to the death.
We have lost our wealth and now we are losing our mental health.
If the Australian Government really needs asylum seekers they should accept them with wholeheartedly and should give them facilities, if they don’t need asylum seekers turn boat the back instead of sending them to Hell hole Nauru, they will find another safe way for themselves.
We came to peaceful Australia for a new hope a and new start of life.
