Radio-Trottoir Feed: Fatwa against Nicolas Sarkozy in Kinshasa

Kinois were particularly happy to watch Nicolas Sarkozy flounder in

the marathon 3-hour presidential debate with contender François

Hollande on Wednesday night, May 2.



Congolese begrudge Sarkozy for suggesting on two occasions--in 2009

and in 2010--that the recipe for peace in the African Great Lakes

region would be that Congo share its natural resources with Rwanda!

For instance, at a press conference he held in Kigali on February 25,

2010, Sarkozy blurted:



"Anything that makes [Kabila and Kagame] talk to each other, gets them

organized, France supports it; but it's not up to France to tell them

how they'll make peace, what the best way of sharing resources will

be..."



Small wonder then that Kinois were glued to their TV sets last night

to root for François Hollande... and issue dire fatwas against

Sarkozy.
