New enough, long enough, sourced, didn't spot any copyvio, but looks like a typo in the hook? The article and source state he was purged in 1983, not 1982? Also in the article google books link for New Africans: A Guide to the Contemporary History of Emergent Africa and Its Leaders gives me 404?--Staberinde (talk) 20:29, 12 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Year in hook corrected now (1983). The link to The New Africans fixed now. --Soman (talk) 23:21, 12 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Good to go.--Staberinde (talk) 11:12, 13 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
