Incompetent coup leaders. If you are going to lead a coup and form a ruling junta, you surely shouldn’t allow the opposition to hold a meeting and organize a united opposition.

I’ve lived in Africa; every day is a coup d’etat somewhere; every day is an act of genocide....somewhere, in Africa. There aren’t many good jobs to have in Africa but I can name a few; arms dealer, mercenary, bush pilot, airport manager, (you make milliions on bribes); tin-pot dictator, (for a while) and finally, missionary-your almost guarenteed to get martyred, especially if your a white european or American.
