Northern League Leader Matteo Salvini said Thursday that he will travel to Nigeria next month to convince Africans to stop migrating to Europe.
    "In June I will go to Nigeria, we will look at how to help these people in their home," Salvini said during a visit to the Marche town of Ascoli Piceno.
    "The government has already spent too much," on rescuing migrants and resettling them, he said.
    "First, our people, then them," said Salvini, outlining his priorities.
    Tens of thousands of migrants fleeing war and poverty, many from Africa and the Middle East, have taken the dangerous trip across the Mediterranean Sea to Europe.
    Thousands of them have died en route as their boats head for Italian shores, the southernmost points in Europe.
    The International Organization for Migration has said that more than 1,800 people died while trying to cross the Mediterranean in the first four months of 2015 alone. But Salvini and his party are opposed to the rescue and resettlement efforts, saying smuggler boats must be destroyed and asylum seekers processed in Africa.
    He repeated that message Thursday in San Benedetto del Tronto, near Ascoli Piceno, where protestors shouted insults and threw objects but were held back by police.
    Officers searched backpacks and purses before allowing any one near the piazza where Salvini was speaking.
    Protesters have often dogged Salvini's political events, including a number near Palermo on Wednesday who threw tomatoes and eggs.
