      ABSTRACT

      On his way to the airport in Douala, Mr Walter the migration broker picked me up to give me a lift. As we drove out of the compound, we passed a young man in the pouring rain whom Mr Walter had just dropped off beforehand. The young man’s shirt was completely soaked. As Mr Walter stopped his car, the rain kept pouring down on the young man. He begged Mr Walter to offer him the six-month visa for Greece for 2 million CFA (€3,000). That’s all he had! Yet Mr Walter claimed that his services cost a lot more.
