In this magical account, Janvier T. Chando brilliantly establishes the threads that made the young Thomas Sankara one of Africa’s iconic leaders in the twentieth century, and the revolutionary changes he brought to Burkina Faso that transformed it into Sub-Saharan Africa’s most self-reliant country. The author leads the reader hand-in-hand to the path of the trail of the young Sankara’s catapult into the limelight of Burkina Faso’s politics, his travails, his rise to power as the head of state, and his lucid notion of his mission. Sankara comes across as one of those rare African ...

This thoughtful account of Patrice Lumumba provides an insight into why the swift elimination of the legend from the geopolitical developments involving his country plunged Congo into turmoil that it is yet to recover from. Janvier T. Chando highlights Congo's deep trauma as the private possession of King Leopold of Belgium, later as a Belgian colony, and afterward, as a so-called independent state that got disarrayed by a tug-of-war between the cold war rivals. That resulted in the inhuman dictatorship of pro-Western Mobutu Sese Seko, in wars during which millions of Congolese died, in the...

No continent has experienced half the political assassinations, coup d’états, internal and external wars, civil unrest, and economic upheaval s since the second half of the twentieth century that Africa suffered. Yet, hardly any serious pundit would say that the hands of foreign forces that are out to secure their “so-called interests” in the continent or that want to gain new ones, were not in most of these setbacks. That these external forces have roughly been succeeding with the help of Africans with the evil disposition or Africans ignorant of their game plan is true. Opposed to ...

Countries, continents, and the world at large experience jolts that move them away from their evolutionary if not reformatory paths, resulting in seismic changes that transform them fundamentally. Assassinations are one of the potent catalysts for these changes as they lead to wars, political changes, and even economic transformations. Below is an insight into far-reaching political assassinations that are still haunting the world today: Franz Ferdinand: Gavrilo Princip, a Bosnian-Serb nationalist kills the Archduke and heir to the Austro-Hungarian throne, thereby sparking off World War One...

Paul Biya, l’octogénaire et deuxième président du Cameroun, a été au pouvoir depuis quarante-six ans (dix ans au poste de Premier Ministre — qui est la deuxième fonction en importance du pays, et trente-six ans en tant que Président — la plus haute fonction du pays), faisant de lui le chef d'État le plus ancien d'Afrique et du monde, qui n'est pas royal. Il est le gardien d'un système mis en place par la France il y a six décennies avant de permettre au Cameroun de devenir membre de l'Organisation des Nations Unies le 1er janvier 1960en lui accordant sa soi-disant ...

The independence fervor that gripped African colonies in the 1940s and 1950s was supposed to give birth to a "New Africa" that was expected to play a major role in advancing world civilization. What happened to make Africa fail so abysmally? By the end of the 1980s, a culture of political monolithism, dictatorship, corruption, coup d’état, mismanagement, underdevelopment and violence was dominating the political leadership of most African countries, fuelled by leaders with the evil disposition and their foreign puppeteers keeping them in power. The era of Mikhail Gorbachev’s Glasnost ...

El terror perpetrado por grupos de odio con un retorcido sentido de la justicia centrado en una causa para mitigar las miserias de un pueblo oprimido o para realizar un programa religioso (yihad), acecha al mundo hoy. En el mundo contemporáneo donde las personas, grupos y organizaciones se arrogan el derecho de hacer no sólo el establecimiento de que están en contra del objetivo de sus ataques, sino también considerar aceptable atacar a civiles indiscriminadamente si sirve a su propósito, el terrorismo es reconocido como la mayor amenaza para la seguridad mundial. Pero entonces, ¿qué...

Un extrait d'un article du 20 Février 1962 paru dans le journal "The Guardian" disait: «L'Unification du Cameroun Francophone avec l'ancien Cameroun du Sud administré par les Britanniques est une 'Expérience Unique' en Afrique...» La réunification des deux territoires a marqué une étape importante dans la cause des nationalistes-civique Camerounais pour réunir les terres de l'ancienne colonie Allemande de Kamerun (1884-1916) qui fut divisée par la Grande-Bretagne et la France suite à la défaite de l'Allemagne lors de la Première Guerre mondiale en Cameroun Britannique (Cameroun...

Il figlio di un principe si fa strada nel labirinto del potere per diventare il nuovo re. Il suo sangue è abbastanza regio da fermare il tumulto nel suo regno mentre cavalca contro la sua nemesi, che è amata e anche rispettata dal popolo? L'Usurpatore è la prima storia del libro "L'Usurpatore: e Altre Storie".

Surnommé par de nombreux experts « la guerre la plus stupide du monde », le conflit ukrainien est un conflit que presque personne n'avait prévu en 2010. Cependant, il arrive déjà à une décennie. Dans ce conflit dans une Ukraine également divisée, la stratégie de la corde raide des acteurs locaux du pays, de l'Occident qui veut entraîner l'Ukraine dans son orbite et de la Russie qui craint de perdre l'Ukraine et sa sécurité dans le processus, est la norme. Dans le même temps, le monde regarde d'une manière apparemment impuissante alors que l'Ukraine se déchire dans les ...

Était le partenariat entre l'armée française et l'opposition en Côte-d'Ivoire qui a abouti à la suppression de Laurent Gbagbo du pouvoir au cours de la guerre civile post-électorale, un effort pour restaurer la démocratie ou de la dernière pièce dans un plan visant à supprimer une menace pour l'infâme « La Pacte colonial» que la France a imposé à ses colonies en Afrique avant de leur accorder l'indépendance dans les années 1960? A été la suppression de Laurent Gbagbo et l'accession au pouvoir d'Alassane Ouattara un effort pour maintenir le système anachronique et ...

Los países, los continentes y el mundo en general experimentan sacudidas que los alejan de sus caminos evolutivos, si no reformadores, lo que resulta en cambios sísmicos que los transforman fundamentalmente. Los asesinatos son uno de los potentes catalizadores de estos cambios, ya que conducen a guerras, cambios políticos e incluso transformaciones económicas. A continuación se muestra una visión de los asesinatos políticos de gran alcance que todavía persiguen al mundo hoy en día: Franz Ferdinand: Gavrilo Princip, un nacionalista serbobosnio, mata al archiduque y heredero del ...

In a world where attitudes and behaviors that were taboo not long ago are now acceptable in a world where the future is frightening to many, we appear to be the helpless onlookers of a process we have no control over. So, finding out that there are underlying efforts by governments, the media, or private groups to influence particular attitudes and social behaviors on a large scale, for the purpose of producing desired results or certain characteristics in particular segments of the population, would be shocking to many people. It is even more shocking when the social engineers are ...

In this succinct account, the author reveals the threads that weave the controversial legacy of the Egyptian military leader and head of state Anwar Al-Sadat, prying into his motivations that led him to war against Israel and that saw him shortly afterwards become an iconic leader for peace in the Middle East by stirring his country onto a path that not only began the transformation of Egypt into a modern state, but that equally alienated Egypt from the rest of the Arab world. The unequivocal nature of Janvier T. Chando’s account sheds a unique light into the legacy of one of Africa’s ...

Dreams We Shared is an inspiring political memoir of a young dissident and those he associated with in the struggle against a mafia-style political system in Africa. It exposes the conflicts brought about by the hopes, dreams, aspirations and human values of those with the fierce spirit and drive for freedom against those with the evil disposition who openly or covertly sustain the plagues ravaging Africa. The story is fast-paced and shocking in its revelations; and has memorable and rich characters that bring forth deeply explored thought formulations, emotions and motives. The storyline ...

When it comes to Cameroon, there seems to be an international conspiracy of silence regarding the destiny of this land variously described as "Africa in Miniature" or "The Microcosm of Africa". It is as if it truly embodies the haunted existence of Africa. When talking about dictators, the media giants apparently fail to mention the world's longest-serving non-royal head of state---Paul Biya of Cameroon, as if there is something to hide or as if there is something shameful about the Biya story and the anachronistic system that France and its geopolitical allies imposed on Cameroon by using ...

Paul Biya, the octogenarian second president of Cameroon has been power for forty-six years (ten years as Prime Minister, which is the second highest office of the land, and thirty-six years as the President ---the highest office of the land), making him Africa's and the world's longest-serving head of state who is a non-royal. He is the caretaker of a six-decade-old system put in place by France before it allowed Cameroon to become a member of the United Nations Organization on January 01, 1960 by granting it its so-called independence, a system made up of a Cameroonian political ...

Le Cameroun a perdu son chemin à un avenir brillant quand la France a pacifiée les forces intellectuelles, dynamiques et patriotiques du territoire, les gens qui s'étaient engagés dans la cause pour réunir l'ancien Kamerun Allemand (qui a été partitionné après la Première Guerre Mondiale dans le Cameroun Britannique et le Cameroun Français), pour le conduire à l'indépendance et pour construire une société qui est démocratique, moderne, progressiste, libre et libérale. Après la défaite, le Cameroun a trouvé lui-même maintenu dans l'esclavage quand la France a imposé un ...

Cameroon lost its way when France pacified the intellectual, dynamic and patriotic forces of the land― the people who were engaged in the cause to reunite the former German Kamerun, lead it to independence and build a modern, progressive, democratic, free and liberal state. Cameroon found itself held in bondage after that when France went on to impose a mafia system in Cameroon, a system that has always been headed by its puppets. However, it was only during the 32-year rule of the fathom and the puppet Paul Biya that Cameroon got gripped by futility, despondence and cynicism. What is the...
