The Rise and Fall of José Eduardo dos Santos by Emmanuel Baptista PDF Summary

Book Description: Head of state for 38 years, still one of the longest-serving people in power on the African continent, he ruled Angola for nearly four decades, overcoming a brutal civil war and overseeing an oil boom. Known within his MPLA party as "the architect of peace," the peaceful José Eduardo has seen his legacy increasingly tarnished by allegations of rampant corruption and nepotism, particularly after the fighting ended in the southwest African country in 2002. Considered by many untouchable, Angolans were shocked when he left office before elections in 2017 and even more so when his handpicked successor, João Lourenço, allegedly turned on him, waging an anti-corruption campaign that would land Dos Santos' son in jail and see assets linked to his daughter frozen. In this this book, we cover the life story and legacy of José Eduardo Dos Santos.
