This is so shocking as even Nigeria's Dangote checked out the day before escaping death. Canada's former Governor General Michaëlle Jean was to have been staying in that Radisson Blu hotel. We thank GOD! Condolences to all the victims. 7 other Canadians were evacuated safely.Jean, who’s now secretary-general of the International Organization of the Francophonie, was to attend a the Francophone Forum on Diversity and Cultural Expressions this weekend. She was scheduled to fly into Bamako on Saturday.
“I want to condemn this new attack terrorist terror strategy, these hate attacks against freedom, against the rule of law, against peace, against stability, this scourge and this constant threat that plagues the world,” Jean
said in a translated statement about the attack, which occurred one week after the deadly
ISIS attacks in Paris and Beirut.
