LONGEST SERVING AFRICAN LEADER AND THE ONLY LEADER WITH FEMALE BODYGUARDS


To the best of my knowledge, Gaddafi is the only world leader to have female bodyguards. All these girls have black belts in karate. They always carry weapons - a submachine gun, five clips of ammunition, a pistol, a revolver and a knife - even in conference rooms. In an assassination attempt on Gaddafi, one of the girls, Aisha, eventually gave her life as she shielded the leader.





Africa's undisputed newly crowned longest-serving ruler, Muammar Gaddafi, who has been in power for 39 yrs.
Col Gaddafi led a coup by young army officers in September 1969, then set about establishing his own political system, as laid out in his Green Book; and he's been there ever since.
Last year, he was named "king of kings" by a meeting of Africa's traditional rulers.

    You left one interesting detail regarding these interesting ladies, dear author. They are supposedly, all virgins.
