 What Happened to the president of Haiti?


The President of Haiti (Jovenel Moise) was murdered in his home and his wife is in the hospital after they were attacked by a group of individuals that were not undefined as this statement was stated by the prime minister, as he also stated that they attacked him in his private residence in the middle of the night and shot him dead.

It was stated as well that the unidentified group was well trained, had a huge amount of guns as they spoke two languages which are English and Spanish, they have also wounded the wife as she is now getting treatment in Miami right now. 
Claude Joseph said in a statement that

 

hateful, inhumane and barbaric act, Democracy and the republic will win.

 

The leaders of the world are shocked by what happened to Mr. Moise, a lot of calls are made to calm the situation down in Haiti, Mr. Biden is shocked and saddened about what happened to Mr, Moise and his wife and even stated the situation and called it "very worrisome" and added, "We condemn this heinous attack and I am sending my sincere wishes for First Lady Moise's recovery and The United States offers condolences to the people of Haiti and we stand ready to assist as we continue to work for a safe and secure Haiti."

In the last few months, people who were against the leader (Mr. Moise) were demanding him to step down and stated that his term was officially ended the last February but Mr. Moise and his supporters his term began when he took office in early 2017 since an interim government ran the country for a year after his election victory in 2016, meanwhile, the violence in the country has increased heavily and 60% of the population was making less than $2 a day.

People demanding the Moise government to step down


The country has been ruled by Mr. Moise for more than two years because the country failing into holding elections which made the parliament vanish.

Mr. Moise was supposed to go off the leadership in 2022, the five-year term should end as it was a stance backed by the United States,

So what will happen now to the country? who takes over after him?

It isn't clear until now who will take over after what happened to Mr. Moise as Judge Jean Wilner Morin, president of the National Association of Haitian Judges told a statement to CNN "that the line of presidential succession in the country was murky given its political instability."

According to the law, Haiti's President of the Supreme Court should be in line next but unfortunately, this seat is empty due to the death of René Sylvestre due to Covid-19 as well as the prime minister should hold the position but have to be permitted by the parliament but currently partially empty and effectively defunct.

As there is a lot of instability happening in the country lately even before the covid-19 hits, children don't have clean water to drink, violence increases each year and lack of essential services/

 What's Happening?  Top inventions that were made by women changed the world, let's praise them! 1. Medical syringe to be honest, I never knew that who did the syringe and always had no information about women doing any inventions I don't know why but this invention was done by Letitia Geer and was done in 1899, as they did the syringe that required two hands to do the injections correctly without resulting any harm, so basically, she invented the syringe that required only one hand that all medical practices use it now! "Her syringe design includes a cylinder, piston rod, a handle, and nozzle. The piston rod had a U-shaped handle for easier grip.
