STORY 1 : War does not only kill people but it also kills dreams

I WANTED TO BECOME MESSI, say Emmanuel. 

EMMANUEL 14 years old he is a big fanatic of the football club @barcelona and of the footballer @leomessi, he wanted to be like Messi and he wanted to become a great football player, unfortunately for him, the war has arrived, and he had to fled his native village to come and live near the city of Goma where all displaced people are living now because of the impact of the genocide and ongoing conflict in the eastern democratic republic of Congo.

“I remember me and my friends when we played Football, my name was Messi, any time we left school, I always had my jersey in my backpack, I took off the uniform then I put on this Messi @leomessi jersey that my mother bought me, today I don't know where my mother and father are, I hope the war will ends so I can go back to school and play with my friends even if I know that some of them lost their lives cause of this war" say Emmanuel.
