Recent release "Who's Troubling Africa? Memoirs of the 2002 Uprising in Côte d'Ivoire" from Page Publishing author Mark Darko is an insightful analysis of this moment in history from the firsthand perspective of the author.
NEW YORK, July 25, 2022 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Mark Darko, who is the founder and president of Ingatherers International Inc., a missionary, discipleship, and charitable organization based in Maryland, USA, has completed his new book "Who's Troubling Africa? Memoirs of the 2002 Uprising in Côte d'Ivoire": a gripping and potent work that shares the authors firsthand experiences during this time.
While the author was on a business trip in Abidjan (Côte d'Ivoire) in September 2002, the military insurrection that partitioned the country into two with a de jure government in Abidjan and a de facto administration in Bouake took place. Mark witnessed the violence meted out by both factions to ordinary people, including women and children, and the horrors encountered by those fleeing from machine gunfire. The author was indelibly marked by what the quest for power and wealth by a few could do to the innocent, helpless, and vulnerable populations. He was appalled by the manifest hypocrisy of the international community in their handling of the conflict and the incendiary role that the local and international press played in the conflict. He felt compelled by the sights and sounds of war to document the conflict, and this book is the outcome of his daily painstaking records from group discussions and interviews, as well as local and international print and electronic news media.
Author Mark Darko introduces his work, writing, "This memoir is my daily records of the sights and sounds, the rumors and gossips, as well as the news reportage of local and foreign newspapers and radio and television broadcasts that reported on the attempted coup in Côte d'Ivoire in 2002."
Published by Page Publishing, Mark Darko's impactful memoir shares this event and the following days from the perspective of the author.
