In 2012 the Tuareg people declared independence for Azawad, an area of land in West Africa which had been part of their traditional homeland for thousands of years. It was met with resistance from international communities, including the United Nations; ethnic groups, and others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This book explores the historical, and ongoing effect of French colonisation on these indigenous people. The human rights violations and abuse they suffer. It considers the lack of regional democracy; corruption in successive governments, and related terrorism. All of which contributed to the failure of Azawad; the fragmentation of a nation, and destruction of its culture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Whilst the hope for peace prevails in Man Of The Sahara. Alongside the Tuareg people who are now living in different parts of Africa, and across the world. This inspirational book is a call to end the conflict of more than 60 years in northern Mali, and its surrounding areas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Akli Sh’kka is known throughout Africa, and internationally, as Man Of The Sahara. He lives in the United Kingdom, and has dedicated his life to restoring the rights of the Tuareg people.
