Former Congolese President Pascal Lissouba dies

Grassien SETONDJI

Monday 24 August, Black Monday for the Congolese democrats.
The former strongman of Brazzaville elected democratically in 1992 broke the pipe.
Great lover of Congo, Pascal Lissouba will be ousted from power five years later by General Sassou Nguesso after a bloody civil war.
Man of science, he had big dreams for Congo and Africa.
Sick for a few years, his disappearance is a great loss for Africa.
