Tukumbushane Vihoja na vituko vya viongozi wa Afrika

Jose Eduardo dos Santos
Angola
02
Vast, oil-rich, and slowly recovering from a brutal
civil war, Angola is shaping up to be Africa’s next
big thing. It has a booming economy, lakes of
petroleum, and a president who is virtually
invisible.
Meet Jose Eduardo dos Santos, Africa’s shyest
autocrat. In power since Jimmy Carter was in the
White House, dos Santos has managed to hold on
so long by making himself a total hermit. He
doesn’t do speeches, give interviews, or appear
on TV. He doesn’t go to summits or conferences,
rarely leaves the capital, and refuses to interact
with other people . On the few occasions he does
go to a rally, he says nothing that hasn’t been
scripted and rehearsed beforehand. His shyness
is so extreme, some know him as “the silent
president.”
The only thing he does openly is corruption . The
opposition accuse him of passing laws to enrich
his own family and clamping down on human
rights whenever his power is challenged. At the
same time, an oil boom is funneling billions into
his pockets, while the vast majority of Angolans
live in crushing poverty.
 
Hassanal Bolkiah
Brunei
A tiny nation on the fringes of Borneo, Brunei is
mainly famous for oil and having a stone-cold
pimp as its ruler.
The Sultan of Brunei’s palace is by far the
biggest in the world , and his car collection would
dwarf that of most manufacturers. Extreme
wealth isn’t the only cartoonish thing about him.
In 2014, he caused an outcry by literally banning
Christmas.
But none of this compares to his obsession with
sex. Thanks to his wealth, Bolkiah can get
anything he wants, and what he wants is women.
The Sultan has his own 24-hour on-call harem,
staffed by girls as young as 15. In 1997, he was
even accused of kidnapping a former Miss United
States and keeping her as a sex slave . When she
escaped and tried to sue, he simply claimed
diplomatic immunity.
His brother, Prince Jefferi, is possibly even more
perverted. In 2010, it was revealed that he’d
spent $1 million on life-size statues of himself
having sex with his fiance and mistress. Yet,
oddly, the people of Brunei don’t seem to mind
these outrages. Rather than keeping them in
abject poverty, Bolkiah simply buys them off with
the most generous government-assistance
packages on Earth.
 
Teodoro Obiang Nguema
Mbasogo
Equatorial Guinea
The tiny, resource-rich nation of Equatorial
Guinea on Africa’s western coast is home to the
continent’s longest-serving dictator: Teodoro
Obiang Nguema Mbasogo.
Despite his son’s predilection for blowing the
national budget on Michael Jackson memorabilia ,
President Mbasogo’s rule is anything but funny.
Infrastructure is insufficient, and most of the
country’s desperately poor citizens have no
access to water or hospitals. Torture is endemic,
and democracy is such a joke that Mbasogo
claimed to have won the 2002 elections with 103
percent of the vote . In a 2006 article, Der Spiegel
said his reign was comparable to that of Pol
Pot.
Perhaps worst of all are the reports of torture
camps where prisoners are routinely strung up
and beaten within an inch of their lives. Human
Rights Watch’s page on Equatorial Guinea is full
of unnerving tales of foreign businessmen
kidnapped while inside the country and violently
abused for years. All signs point toward the
starvation and repression of citizens being
comparable to North Korea, yet hardly anyone
has ever heard of this tin-pot tyrant.

Huyu Samwel Doe siyo kwamba aliburuzwa mtaani hadi kufa. Kilichotokea ni kwamba baada ya Prince Johnson na wenzake kumkamata walimtesa sana kwa kumkata taratibu baadhi ya viungo vyake kama masikio, vidole vya mikono na miguu (decapitation) hali iliyopelekea kifo chake baada ya kuvuja damu kwa wingi. Baada ya kuwa ameshafariki ndipo maiti yake ikiwa uchi iliwekwa kwenye trolley na kisha kutembezwa katika baadhi ya mitaa ya Monrovia ambao ni mji mkuu wa Liberia.
