I was home... I remember my mom was downtown at the time of the insurgency.. I was about 10.

Remember seeing this 'aboo bakar' on TV around 6pm and wondering, 'who is that? coup?' and then the TV cut off .. the following Saturday at 1pm or so it had some brief broadcast from some army officer and then that was it for the next 4 days

I recall the occasional army patrol on my street during the coup.

The biggest shock was coming in town for the 1st day of september school term after the coup to see all the destruction first hand.
God is dead.

I was home in front of the tv waiting for macgyver and was PISSED because i didnt get to see it but hey i was 11 and i remember thinking they stop macgyver to show this play, then my grand mother start making calls and then i realise it was real. My brother was working in town at that time and was waiting for my grandfather to come pick him up in front of the red house and let me tell you i thank God that he got away from that bomb blast.

I was at summer camp. One day before the coup took place, we had the option to spend the night over at the camp. I wanted to sleep over, but my dad wasn't too comfortable with the idea, so, he took me home.

...the next day, the coup happened. Looking back, I couldn't help but think, "Lucky me."
