The ripple effects of colonialism and home invasion
I would say if you're not saved, you'll be in hell.
♥️ stronger than you feel
About 99.6% of folks there practice traditional religions & beliefs. Maybe their govt could do something about spreading Christianity to the lost souls. Christian hope is almost divine in itself.

THE ONLY REMEDY IS THE BLOOD AND THE CROSS OF JESUS CHRIST. PEOPLE SHOULD RECEIVE JESUS CHRIST OF NAZARETH AS THEIR PERSONAL SAVIOR. THERE IS NOTHING IMPOSSIBLE WITH JESUS CHRIST. HE WILL HEAL ALL MANNER OF DISEASES AND SOLVE ALL MANNER OF PROBLEMS UNDER THE SUN.
Wow western media, as if they care
I don't judge anyone committing suicide.
Praying for you all hoping help will reach you soon❤
Corruption is the root cause of all this in many African countries. Period
Lesotho is my birth country ,I lived there until I was 14 years old and I don’t remember feeling unsafe or being warned to be extra cautious in public.it’s been 10 years since I left and all I can say is that I don’t recognize my country anymore,from having the highest murder cases to the highest suicide cases,it breaks my heart honestly. What happened to “khotso,pula ,naala”🥲
Lord jesus have mercy on us
My friend Tsonope committed suicide, he seemed with no problem at all, he wasn't much of drug or alcohol abuser
Sucks to be an A censored for YouTube

Regretfully the first speaker is incorrect in statements, it is not limited to one place; it is a terrible worldwide problem. Hearing these stats, we should be overwhelmed.
Life in lesotho is forced by the location of lesotho inside south Africa. Where people see it or not ,lesotho is like a prison inside another country .
It’s is rough to live I lost my 15 year old dog I know is not compared to a human but to is been rough for me to cope with the loss …pray for me I’m having complications in thoughts.
AFRICA is not gaysim rapping or assassition or sniper gun assassin's or genocide shit of eroupean theory of stupidity. Africa not a genocide country shit of western Europe stupid theory.
Who said The greatest thing about life,is that you can end it when you want.?
I'm wondering we in Nigeria 🇳🇬 going through alot but no suicide cases, or maybe because of religions preaching
I can't imagine what it must be like to lose someone to suicide. But I want to offer everyone reading this hope. Jesus knows your suffering like no other person can. He doesn't promise an easy life on earth but He does grant eternal life to all who call upon His name. He offers rest to all who are weary and heavily burdened. To all who come to Him, and He will not reject or push away anyone from coming to Him, no matter where you come from or what you've done.
Simply come❤️
If you confess with your mouth and believe in your heart that Jesus is Lord, you will be saved❤️
Stupid BBC Africa… go to America and the UK and see worse things
Reminds me of the plight of many Native Americans. God help us all.
88/100k is crazy considering it's probably crazy underreported because of the taboo, could easily be in the hundred to two hundred range
