The Fight for Survival: Hell In Life (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780228869061)

I was born in then Zaire (Democratic Republic of Congo) in the late 1980s, and at a tender age my country experienced a horrific civil war. Thousands of people were murdered during the civil war that happened in 1994 during the era of Mobutu Sese Seko. My father and my other two siblings were killed during the war period. My mother was forced to take us to Malawi for safety where we stayed in a refugee camp for five years. Life in the camp was stressful, with inadequate water and food and poor housing. However, we were forced to stay in the camp by the authorities, and freedom of movement was restricted. I am an example of the troubles that people have faced in life as a result of death and separation, which occurs due to the political instability.
