Cpt. Dadis Camara: Guinea's odd Ex-military ruler who had a "TV show"
Вставка
- Опубліковано 7 жов 2024
- On 5 September, 2021, Guineans woke up to the news of a military coup against the president Alpha Condé led by Captain Doumbouya. What started as rumours were confirmed when footage of Condé in the hands of military officers circulated on social media.
This was the third military intrusion in Guinea’s national politics since the country’s independence in 1958 with a notable one being the bloodless coup of December 2008 that brought Captain Moussa Dadis Camara to power. This was shortly after the death of the country’s long-time leader Lansana Conte.
Captain Camara’s justification for the 2008 Coup was that he wanted to end the pain and agony that the people of Guinea were going through at the time. During his time as President Camara became famous for his theatrics whereby he would reprimand powerful businessmen, diplomats and politicians live on TV. Some even nicknamed his tv segment the Dadis show.
Unfortunately, his regime became repressive and this plunged Guinea into a political crisis. In this episode of African Biographics, we look at the story of Captain Dadis Camara and his regime in Guinea and how he eventually left power.

#Guinea #DadisCamara
Really love this channel!We need more historical videos about Africa, we hear enough from the west. Thank you Tatenda.
You are welcome
Keep on with the good works I always keep my fingers cross waiting for your next episode.......and you've never disappointed me.God job😃
thanks to this channel i learn a lot of Africa not just where I'm from Eritrea, it gives me more history to learn and understand . thank u brother u doing a good job.
I have been wanting to know how Dadis Camara left and God that you have lighten my mind
I love 💕 guinea Love from Kenya
Another well presented, informative video. Congratulations.
Ummm… can we get one on Lansana Conte? Sounds like his is quite a story too that needs it’s own video
Thank you as always for your well elaborated documentary. Indeed power is sweet as most politicians will start off very promising but as power settles in them, they lose the sense of direction and derail good principles and policies
Love this channel keep up the great work. Is there any chance we can get a video about Walter Rodney?
Of all these military dictators, this dude is the strangest.
Great Channel!
From Afghanistan 🇦🇫
Very informative, thank you.
Good video as always! I was thinking like... Why haven't you put some interviews of him and their subtitles (for English speakers); now i get you! Can translate it for you. If needed
Translation:
- Mr. Dadis: In Russia over there, do you speak like this?!!
- Rusao's Representative: Excuse me Mr president
- Mr. Dadis: It's by this way that you guys walked on Guinea!!
You got bogged down with the previous government!!
You talked, did I interrupt you?
**I Understand that he has been interrupted by the representative during their discussion**
Embarrassing. No wonder why I am not familiar with this nation.
I know I shouldn't but that clip from the dadus show made me laugh a little bit, he is such a mad man
I'm most concerned about Africa on corruption. It seems to be connected to every video here.
Love your channel! I'm learning so much.
thank you for the wonderful video
Thank you for this video but again you did not grasp the extent of Alpha Conde's role in the carnage at the stadium and his envolvment of Dadis assassination attempt. Condé was never elected. Sekouba Konaté and his master the wealthy french businessman Vincent Bolloré installed him as president
my favorite new channel
We will seriously appreciate you giving the history of France from the mid 15th century to present day west Africa. I believe when citizens understand the terror horror suffering exploitation and death that continue to povertize France colonial country. That our people will understand why military coup is the only way that things can change.
"the military junta called the National Council for Democracy and Development.."
ironic
This episode needs an update.
A captain leading a successful coup is so surreal.
Hey brother. Good job as usual. Could you please give us one on Thomas Sankara?
he already had one
Foreign agents do infiltrated the military and committed killings, it happens in Nigeria.
Bro I’m learning so much from you about the African world. I just wish I could trace my family back further than Jamaica
Thank you. By the way,, what has become od Dadis Camara these days?
Though I'm adverse to the killings of citizens for political gains, I would rather a person of Dadis Camara's ilk to rule over African nations than to have the current president of Guinea granted such position. Col Mamady Doumbouya, a man who is married to a non African woman but thinks he is fit to run a country, whose women population predominantly consists of African women. The audacity. I can only imagine the direct psychological implications that that has on the women of Guinea.
@@nevergiveup19841 Everything! It's unfortunate that you don't see it.
@@nevergiveup19841 If you didn't get the gist by reading my initial statement then elaborating will be of no use to you, either.
@@nevergiveup19841 Have a good day sir.
Bruh.
Camara paid the supreme price betrayal by trying to gave his aid Diakite away to ICC. Diakite did the right thing.
Why is he wearing a mismatched German Army Beret with the old Fallschirmjäger (paratrooper) insignia??
FYI, the colour of the beret should be burgundy, not red (which would be either Artillery or Military Police, among others)??
THANK YOU FOR YOUR BRILLIANT AND BEAUTIFUL 😍 UA-cam VIDEOS INFORMATION
Was Dadis not also high on that same drug that he was trying to expel from Guinea?
i suspect he was lol
@@125israel the man was up there in the clouds... Damn
@@that_bloke_kiriHe was so dedicated to keeping that horrible cocaine away from his beloved people that he couldn't even risk burning it or dumping it in the ocean, no, this absolute hero took it all himself so his people could be safe 😂
@@restitvtororbis5330 what a noble gesture 😂
In the spanish military, sunglases are equal to a "rip me a new one" sign over your forehead.
Meanwhile, every african military dictator: "And I took that personally"
If only Dadis had en intellectual language 😎
I don't see what Camara did wrong!!!
please make a video about lansana conte
By the way, is Tatenda a Zimbabwean?
He had good ideas but couldn’t hold his emotions that lead his downfall
Still no translation from French speakers 😮
Lt Colonel Doumbouya. Not captain please. That man hasnt been captain in years
Couruption and greed seems popular in Africa
They seem popular EVERYWHERE. Consider Donald Trump.
@@elizabethsohler6516
But Trump's supposed corruption and greed didn't bankrupt the US unlike Kwame Kilpatrick's that bankrupted Detroit.
dadis camara a quel plan pour sortir la guinee du sous developement ,a part les injures et le denigrements
He was a clown..
Just like 99% of African leaders
@@wotizit2937 nah.. some of them..
Your a analysis are always construed.
All of them were chosen by France. Dont get it twisted
7:12 “Captain Dadis Camara became a regular fixture on national TV and he used his screen time to personally expose corruption & ties between the former regime & the trans Atlantic cocaine trade.”
The socialist governments have always resulted in progress for the African countries which they governed as opposed to the corrupt capitalist administrations.
Lmao , what ?
Seriously, if you look at the top 10 most developed African countries all of them were capitalist, socialism is an economic system from the devil alot of Africans were butchered by communist rebels and mass starvation perpetrated by Marxist regimes like that of Mugabe and Julius Nyerere, you can't compare Kenya with any of it's neighbors which choose communism, You can't compare communist Zimbabwe with capitalist Rhodesia
@@simonnzioki5679 Or with capitalist Botswana.
@@simonnzioki5679 Or with capitalist Burundi.
@@cuthbertjolly4859 Lol,🤭🤭 are you being sarcastic or what? I thank God they were not communist maybe Burundians would have been extinct
This guy was an oddball...try to be more specific...which division of the army was he in? The beret color looks like he was either special forces or military police which was it?
@Adesina Adebayo sheep in a flock that follow the next one in front tend to fall off cliffs easily.
This is in my country Guinea Conakry 🇬🇳
😢 13:19
Every 10 to 15 years
King Dadis
he looks a little bit like an African Cillian Murphy, I think its his jawline
Looked at a still of him just as I saw this comment and your observation makes a surprising amount of sense 😳
Imagine thinking this was somehow better than colonial days.
I like Guineal
Umm...so he's kinda my cousin....
Never met him but my dad and all the other elders have loads of stories about him when he was a kid
@@phantasmalemperor8887 oh interesting, what was he like?
Its almost like this type of stuff is genetic or something
Poor Africa
This what happens to every Patriotic Leader. International community will undermine him and throw him out of power before long for exposing and shaming them.
Patriotic my foot. He open fire and killed 150 peaceful protesters, his own people for that matter and you still have the audacity to call him patriotic. My continent is doomed
@@modelka222 You will get to understand someday who's really behind the scene.
Our continent in is never domed. It is we the people amongst us are the dome that follow the colonial powers to keep our people even the right ones down.
@@karlquiah1260 these are excuses and am tired of it. we always put blames on other people. Asia has always been in the same predicament and now they are moving forward despite the iron grip of the white man. we have bad leaders and this guy was one of them, he had no business leading the country.
@@modelka222 its the same old story . Dictator grabs power ,steals from people and dies living a power vaccum. Then another dictator comes and does the same
@@modelka222 it's crazy how imbeciles across the continent grab power just to mess things up & there are people left saying the West is to blame for it. Its important that our people become responsible for themselves
he was insane
Camara was a hero
Junta is a Spanish word and you pronounce it with an H sound like from the word hat. It sounds like HUNTA. Also please stop mentioning the ICJ, never has a more hypocritical and pointless an international organization ever existed.
Thank you
@@AfricanBiographics You are welcome ;))
@@freeenergyeducationinterna1086 i MEAN AFRICA is SAVAGE place.
But his not Spanish.
Alpha conde
I clearly recall Dadis! He has a good heart I must say but lost his way along the line. That only heightened his paranoia and eccentricity
Why does Africa have so many Crazy and Delusional Leaders that take Power just like that,.
Africa needs a religious and a Spiritual Revival to ensure that we have Good Governments to ensure our Country and Continent can become a Paradise within the Comity of Nations by the year 2028.
The sheer number of Coups and counter coups is simply too much to bear for the African Peoples no matter their Skin Colour.
We are not in 1960 but it looks like it in 2021.
God help and Protedt the Continent of Africa,that is the least that we can do.
What all are our Professsor and lecturers doing to ensure our nations can do well without the sight of Black Children sailing over the waters of the Atlantic and the Mediterrean Sea.
Black Africans have unique Qualities and potentialities and with the wealth that lies in the Belly of our Continent we have no excuse to be poor and Needy.
Cette analyse est necessaire pour que notre Continent avance de l avant.
Que Dieu tout Puissant nous benisse.
Power the downfall of man
