The death of a gentleman activist

Aeiou team is sad. François-Xavier Verschave just died yesterday from cancer disease. Very smart, this fellow was also much useful in today French society : he wrote several books in the last few years to denounce the economic relationship between French politicians and African dictators, mostly based on African oil ressources extracted by Elf, the huge French oil company. Thanks to guys like him, French people were more aware of the illegitimate way their government is dealing with former colonies. Verschave was an economist, the BBC reported some news about him, here and there (in good English !)
