Dos Santos had been getting clinical treatment beginning around 2019.

 

Portuguese news organization Lusa detailed last month that the previous president was owned up to an emergency unit a center in Barcelona.

 

One of Africa's longest serving pioneers, dos Santos ventured down quite a while back. His standard was set apart by a fierce nationwide conflict enduring almost thirty years against U.S.- upheld UNITA rebels - which he won in 2002 - and a resulting oil-fuelled blast.

 

He was supplanted in 2017 by President Joao Lourenco, who notwithstanding being from the occupant's People's Movement for the Liberation of Angola (MPLA), quickly moved to test charges of extravagant defilement during the dos Santos time, focusing on the previous pioneer's youngsters.
