Mozambique: Reminds me of Equatorial Guinea in the bad old days. LNG coming. Money flowing. Contracts being signed. Expats opening offshore accounts and choosing beach wear but visas for journos and expats expensive and tightening up. Welcome to Zangaro? clubofmozambique.com/news/no-more-d…
The #DogsofWar was written by Biafran-era journo Freddy Forsythe. He met a number of mercenaries who he later consorted with to plot a coup against dirt poor Ferdinand Po. He flew out of the island into Biafra with the relief pilots and thought he had a great idea for a book.
Alexander Ramsey Gay, a bank clerk, turned mercenary, hired a ship, hired mercs, bought weapons but were busted before they could take over the island. He recycled the plot into the book and later movie with a gritty mastery of detail. independent.co.uk/news/world/afr…
