BOMBA!
Estas imagens nesta fotografia aonde se encontra Jean Claude Brou, actual chefe da Cedeao ao lado de Arestides Gomes, primeiro ministro da GuineBissau aquando da reunião da cdeao (poe data); mostra claramente a falta de transparência do senhor Brou com mãos para cima e sorriso de vitória!
Pois a Guiné-Bissau e um país soberano e somente membro da cdeao porque assim o quis como país! O Povo Guineense não vai aceitar mais ordens comandaras por uma elite da praça de Bissau que teem interesses obscuros na “coisa”pública como é o “adorável Porto de Buba”; minerais; possível petróleo e various outros recursos naturais por explorar na Guiné-Bissau!
O Povo da Guiné-Bissau conquistou a independência através de uma guerra sangrenta pelas Gloriosas Forças Armadas da Guiné-Bissau contra o Regime Colonial Português!
O Povo da Guiné-Bissau não vai aceitar nenhum tipo de neo-colonização seja ela por uma elite factiosa ou sub-regional!!!
O actual líder do paigc quer implantar uma neo-colonização na Guiné-Bissau através de Angola, Timor Leste, alguns países da sub-região etc...mas não vai ser aceite enquanto a Guiné-Bissau for um país livre!
Que está mensagem passe para toda a organização estrangeira “estrangeira”; comunidade internacional e regional na Guiné-Bissau em como é inaceitável a NÃO CORREÇÃO dos cadernos eleitorais!
Viva a Guiné-Bissau; viva o Povo da Guiné-Bissau; viva as Nossas Gloriosas Forças Armada”!
Deus abençoe a Guiné-Bissau e o seu Povo para o caminho da Liberdade e Mudança!

Xenophobia hub: Over 600 Nigerians head home from South Africa
Nigeria looking to repatriate about 600
Over 600 Nigerians will be voluntarily returning home according from South Africa according to head of the Nigerians in Diaspora Commission, Abike Dabiri.
The first news of repatriation was from a local airline, Air Peace which made the offer last week. Its plans were impacted by lack of documentation of beneficiaries. The embassy stepped in to provide necessary papers.
The first batch are expected to leave on two flights on Wednesday, Nigeria’s Consul General in Johannesburg, Godwin Adama, told the BBC.
Only those who were under distress as a result of the attacks would leave the country, he added. The government via president Buhari also issued a statement for voluntary repatriation of all Nigerians living in South Africa.
Ms Dabiri has also called for the South African government to pay compensation to victims of the xenophobic violence that has so far claimed a dozen lives. Lawmakers in Nigeria’s lower chamber have also said they will push for compensation.
September 8, 2019: Fresh violence erupts in Johannesburg
At least two people have died and dozens arrested following fresh xenophobic attacks in South Africa’s Johannesburg city on Sunday.
Local Eyewitness News reported that a group of men had raided the city’s central business district on Sunday morning, demanding that foreigners leave the area.
The city’s police chief David Tembe confirmed that two people had died from gun shot wounds and stabbing, adding that cars, buildings and businesses had been vandalised.
“I think this is pure criminality because some of the shops that were burned did not belong to the foreigners, it belonged to South Africans,’‘ Tembe said.
September 7, 2019: Nigeria debunks explosion at SA embassy in Abuja
The Nigerian government on Saturday dispelled reports that there had been an explosion at the Abuja premises of the South African embassy.
Information Minister Lai Mohammed told the media that the reports that had been making the rounds were untrue and that no such incident had taken place.
A statement by his media aide said the “explosion” was fake news orchestrated by the desperate opposition to cause panic and chaos among the populace.
The Police also called the report a classic fake news. “Meanwhile, the Nigeria Police Force has provided adequate security in and around all South African Missions and related business interests,” their statement read in part.
South African businesses were targeted earlier this week in reprisal attacks by some Nigerians after a surge in xenophobic violence saw other Africans attacked in Johannesburg and other areas.
The South African embassy closed its doors in the wake of the security threats that officials were receiving. Some businesses like MTN and Shoprite closed their shops for fear of attacks.
The Nigerian government also issued a travel advisory for South Africa, pulled out of the World Economic Forum on Africa – which took place in Caper Town and recalled its envoy.
A private airline, Air Peace, has since offered to evacuate citizens who are willing to voluntarily return but the move has been hampered as a result of the lack of proper documentation of some of the applicants.
The above video is another classical example of a disingenuous piece of Fake News. There was no explosion in the South African High Commission or any other part of Nigeria today. The public are therefore advised to disregard the information in its entirety.
