Maka Angola Sponsors Petition Against CNN International Deal with Angolan Dictator’s Children
Maka Angola has just launched an online campaign petitioning CNN International to stop accepting advertisement from the corrupt Angolan regime of President Dos Santos. Semba Comunicação, a private Angolan company, has been receiving millions of dollars directly from the presidency...budget to produce commercials to improve the image of Angola abroad. However, this company...is owned by President José Eduardo dos Santos’ children...President Dos Santos has been in power for 32 years without ever being elected by the people...While two-thirds of the Angolan population survive on less than $2 a day, the President and his protégés, including his family, have been plundering the extensive natural resources of the country...As a high profile and credible media outlet, CNN International should refuse to accept advertisement paid for with illicit transfers of Angolan taxpayers’ money.
