Luigino Smiroldo, head of the Friuli movement: "He is a man who just wants to work, as opposed to begging"
Trieste - "The situation is very critical and urgent to raise awareness on the issue of African gentleman who for years lived in our country and who is currently without a home, a job and food. " Rights of Italy, speaking through his representative for the Friuli-Venezia Giulia Luigino Smiroldo, has decided to espouse the cause of Antonio Kissungu, fifty-three Angolan fled to Italy in the late eighties to escape a violent civil war that has devastated his country. With a master's degree in his pocket, went through the whole rigmarole of illegal inhumane paid by the hour in the fields, until you get to Pordenone, where he soon got a contract as an employee in a cooperative, then in various companies. About three years ago, due to labyrinthitis which has greatly reduced job performance, has been dismissed and then began the ordeal for him. Evicted, and was hosted by the parish until, thanks to the staff of Luigino Smiroldo, the town has found an accommodation and the province of Pordenone has provided € 4,500 to start and return it to the occupation of ice cream, after completing an internship in Germany at the Association of Italian ice cream. "It seemed that everything was going to end in the best possible way - added the leader of the movement led by Antonello De Pierro - but they are born because of other complications that Antonio has no passport. The social worker told me it should be withdrawn in Angola but the embassy denied me this procedure. Meanwhile, to make matters worse, the mayor has forced the evacuation of Antonio housing and the return of € 1,500 for meals administered to, all by April 12 and no possibility of extension. I can not deny the availability that we have been given institutions, but now this man is likely to end up in the middle of a road. Among other things, is in poor health and asks for nothing more than to work and live in a dignified manner. "
