GUELWAAR

Guelwaar, a catholic and an advocate of African self-determination, was eliminated because his message was quite disturbing to some. On the morning of his funeral, his corps has apparently disappeared, so the funeral sermon is pronounced in front of an empty coffin. As a result of an error in the administration, he was buried by an influential muslim family, that does not want to reveal anything for fear of a public scandal.
