‘Caught in the ceasefire. No, C men, the BBC is talking non- sense. My president will never go into exile. It was he who always advocated fighting inside Angola, ever since the Portuguese.

For example, they call dos Santos the president of the MPLA, and that’s what he is. Not president of Angola as the BBC calls him.”
