Ivory Coast strongman Laurent Gbagbo refused to step down last year when he lost the presidential election. Hundreds have died since and his country is an utter mess. He was arrested today by his enemies. Here he is today with his wife. He had plenty of chances to flee semi-gracefully. Now, it's too late.
And his occupation before he got into politics? History professor.
The only thing positive Gbagbo did for the Ivory Coast is fact that he was the leader of the movement that enable multiparti¬sim in CI. That is it.
