AFTER GBAGBO NA U, Part 2 The first time I came across a photo of Simone Gbagbo was in January 2011, at a West African news site that I occasionally follow. She was at a rally in support of her husband, Laurent Gbagbo. The husband was not present at the rally. The site then posted some other pictures in mid march, where she had attended a prayer rally for peace in Ivory Coast. Again, her husband was not there. That was when I developed some interest and googled her name, and I was really stunned to read a little about her. The next time I saw her photo, at the same site, was a day after 4/11, and the above photo was one of them. Since then, these 4/11 photos have been written about and distributed around with words like “Gbagbo deserved this,” “Gbagbo and wife caught in a bunker!” “African dictators should learn from this,” “Kudos to the French, now we go to Sierra Leone, hope Sia Koroma is watching,” “Did Koroma have to put his family through this?”
