A Dispute over a Judge ends in the Fall of a Goverment/ The burning roadblocks

In these two chapters we read, when Kapuscinski goes from Algiers to Accra and in the airport was filled of soldiers, and waht happened was that they had uncovered a conspiracy against the republic. President Nkrumah was giving a press conference about Rhodesia, and how the security was so present inside the house where the press conference was heading at. We also read hoe there was a civil war in Nigeria. Policeman where stopping al cars in the road, searching for weapons. The Yourbas was split into two. UPGA and the NNDP. The majority of people where in the UPGA. We can see how these people are crazy for power and they are willing to do whatever just to reach their goal. The author explains the cruelty the made to people, burning them alive, and burning every car that passed through their way. He also tells us how he was on the edge of death several times, not only for crossing their way, but also for being white. He had to give them money so they didnt kill him, and so they dindt burn his car. He aslo explains that he thought they had smoked hashish because they had anger in their eyes. Personally I think Kapuscinski was very risky and had a lot of guts to go over there in the UPGAs teritory, risking his life, only for a piece of work and a little of adventure, but I also think it is very admirable and very good he got to know so many places I would like to go to , but maybe not have the chance. I am liking a lot the book, because I am learning about common knowledge in a fun way , with a lot of adventures and interesting facts and stories that really take place.
