Saturday, September 28, 2024 -Haiti's transitional leader, Edgar Leblanc Fils, became the centre of attention during his speech at the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) due to an unexpected action.
While addressing the assembly, Fils
opted for an unconventional approach to quench his thirst, reaching for a large
pitcher of water. Unfortunately, the attempt backfired as he ended up spilling
water on his suit, appearing to miss his mouth entirely before hastily
returning the pitcher to the podium.
The incident has sparked discussions
online, with social media users seizing the moment to poke fun at the
situation. Some speculated whether it was mismanagement by UN staff for not
providing a glass, while others humorously questioned the legitimacy of the
incident. Comments ranged from disbelief—"No way this is real? Is this
legit?"—to empathetic observations about the lack of a simple drinking
glass.
Fils's rise to leadership comes after armed gangs in Haiti removed former
Prime Minister Ariel Henry from power earlier this year. As the President of
the Presidential Council of the Transition of the Republic of Haiti, Fils is
tasked with establishing a new government in a nation facing significant
challenges, including the ongoing migration crisis where many Haitians seek
entry into the United States.
