Scenarios about 'Patrice Lumumba'
Patrice Lumumba was the first democratically elected Prime Minister of the independent Democratic Republic of the Congo in 1960 before being overthrown and assassinated with Belgian and CIA involvement. His pan-African nationalism, anti-colonial stance, and brutal elimination made him a powerful martyr symbol in the struggle against imperialism and neocolonialism in Africa.
