UN SG Fires MONUSCO Force Commander

by AfroAmerica Network on July 13, 2010

Sources at the United Nations in New York tell AfroAmerica Network that the UN Secretary General has fired the Force Commander of United Nations Organization Stabilization Mission in the Democratic Republic of the COngo (MONUSCO), Lieutenant General Babacar Gaye from Senegal.
The dismissal of Lt General Babacar Gaye follows acknowledgment by the UN Security Council that the war in the Eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo, especially in the Kivus, against rebels, both foreign and local, has failed and only led to a catastrophic humanitarian situation.

AfroAmerica Network Celebrates 15 Years of Existence

The Vision started in the bustling City of Baltimore, Maryland in July 1997. The Internet was still at its infancy and the fist Internet bubble was about to begin. But Africa and AfroAmerican world was very sparsely represented, if not inexistent, in the new World Wide Web.

Two AfroAmerican (an African and an American) visionaries wanted to correct that. They created AfroAmerica Network.

Now, 15 years later, it is time to reflect.

Thanks for your support over the years as AfroAmerica Network celebrates its 15th Anniversary!
